The cloud has been around for years. While many organizations have slowly transitioned to the cloud, many more are still weighing the costs and benefits of migrating and evaluating if it’s the right decision for their organization. If you’re unsure about migrating to the cloud, there are a few things to consider. First, most companies who have made the move to the cloud did it to modernize their legacy systems and infrastructure, drive business transformation, and be more agile in responding to the everchanging needs of their employees and customers. As a result, they’ve seen cost savings and more operational efficiency.
Over the past few decades, organizations have slowly shifted to the cloud and started embracing digital transformation. But when the 2020 pandemic hit, those who were slow to welcome digitalization had no choice but to adapt, as nearly every workforce had to go remote to stay afloat. While virtual private networks (VPNs) were the standard before, they no longer provide the security and access control required for distributed teams.
