Over the past year, more organizations have jumped onto the cloud computing bandwagon. There’s really no doubt that many companies have already adopted some part of the cloud model. IT administrators are seeing the direct benefits in moving towards a cloud computing platform. There is the clear ability to scale, become more efficient and even simplify management.
Still with cloud computing being a relatively new concept for some organizations, managers have to be clear in what their cloud goals really are. Because the cloud is still only beginning to make its way into the corporate data center, ccompanies face a number of obstacles to cloud adoption. In this white paper from HP, you’ll learn about these challenges and how to overcome such cloud obstacles. In working with a cloud model, some obstacles may include:
Differences between business and IT executives about the pace of adoption;
Differing stages of maturity within the cloud adoption continuum; and
The need to avoid compromising the cloud’s benefits with scattershot, uncoordinated adoption.
The general idea behind cloud computing is that the platform can delivery some pretty powerful benefits. They key sits in the planning, use-case and deployment. Using a step-by-step deployment approach is one way to control the cloud initiative. It’s also important to work with a very agile cloud platform.
