Emerging cloud technology has plagued enterprises across the world as business leaders are recognizing its impact on the efficiency, scalability, resilience, and performance of their organizations. However, the adoption of sophisticated technology without a sound strategy and evolved architecture can add to its complexity. Here is an overview of some IT infrastructure considerations that can help overcome the associated challenges.
When is the right time to switch?
Adopting or migrating to modern technologies is demanding due to risky operations, especially for enterprises relying on a legacy system. An organization’s choice to do so is a radical shift that requires making significant changes in infrastructure and making it future-proof. It is crucial to move forward with expert consultation and strategy that supports the core of your organization and the objectives associated with this digital transformation. Just as beneficial, the process of cloud migration is complex with the critical elements of your business at stake.

There are several components of an enterprise that influences the cloud readiness of the organization. Some of these include organizational strategy, process, IT architecture, governance, and people. Consideration of these elements facilitates more controlled cloud adoption, higher security, enhanced performance, and deeper compliance with applications dependent on the legacy protocol.
Cloud Readiness
Cloud readiness for an enterprise can be assessed by defining four dimensions namely- business, technology, people, and processes. To derive the true value of the technology, the requirements of the business, the goals for the technology along with capital availability and investment are determined to ensure an agile yet cost-effective strategy of cloud deployment or migration. A customized strategy aligning with the various aspects of business goals enables enterprises to reap the benefits of the technology to the fullest extent.
In addition to basic business needs, the IT infrastructure is a defining factor for technological capabilities and the adoption of transformative technologies. The infrastructure foreshadows cloud adoption in terms of its availability as well as utilization. This also reflects on digital readiness and the demand for advanced services in the organization. The ability to utilize digital services is largely determined by the attitude along with the digital skills of the workforce. For smooth transition and dynamic engagement, the right balance between cloud technology and the legacy process is crucial. A tailored path for the implementation of a cloud-based solution is the answer to this.
Migrating your people to the cloud
Although cloud services bring functionality, usability, and mobility to the workforce, it requires careful consideration and a business-specific roadmap to ease the transition for people within the organization. It is imperative to bring together talent, culture, and technology to keep pace with the introduction of dynamic technologies. The strategic roadmap of adoption and implementation assists in simplifying business processes and creating a balance of complex legacy systems and advanced cloud-based solutions to eliminate any productivity issues or stress on business performance.
A challenge confronted by organizations making this radical shift is accommodating employee requirements while prioritizing the technology that can accelerate and amplify the journey of digital transformation.
