Abstract
This IDC Perspective focuses on the use of cloud technology for operations. Specifically, it focuses on the policy for operational data, where cloud ranks in terms of operational investment, and what can be enabled using cloud systems. This document explores the approach that leading operational decision-makers are taking to the cloud and how it can become the platform for operational data management, data sharing and, ultimately, transformation.
"It's clear from conversations with operations that discussions around cloud have shifted from trying to gain acceptance to figuring out what operational workloads should move. While the adoption of cloud within operations still has room for growth, the policies and investment plans are geared toward continued expansion of this technology. When looking at the benefits of taking this approach, it is easy to understand why the cloud will be an essential element of operational transformation long term," said Reid Paquin, research vice president, Future of Operations at IDC.
