Cloud Adoption Is All About Value for CIOs

Four out of five executives agree: choosing the cloud is a smart value proposition.
Research from Host Analytics and conducted by Dimensional Research found that for four out of five business execs, the cloud is chosen for its value over any other factor, according to an article on CloudComputingNews.net.
A similar number of employees surveyed said that it’s beneficial for them to use cloud applications.
The research talked to more than 300 CIOs and business executives and found various benefits to cloud adoption, which may perhaps shift the balance as IT budgets are being prepared for 2013.
When asked for the reasons a cloud app was chosen over other, on-premise options, the disparity between business executives and CIOs was stark.
Value was the obvious factor for execs (80%), whereas compliance was the most important component for CIOs (58%); value (53%) and greater competitive advantage (51%) completed the top three.
Compliance is a vital and underrated reason for utilizing the cloud. Sixty-one percent of survey respondents said they have out-of-date, business-critical software, and 14% said their on-premise software hadn’t been upgraded in four or more years.
More than one in three CIOs stated that while their company didn’t have plans for any solution, the cloud seemed a better fit.

AWS Out to Dethrone Apple, Google

Andy Jassy, the head of Amazon’s cloud business and the Harvard MBA who wrote its business plan, told the Sunday Telegraph in London over the weekend that AWS could some day displace Apple as the world’s most valuable tech company.
“We don’t say to ourselves, ‘What we’re really doing is trying to build the largest technology company in the world,’” he told the paper. “We just happen to think, with how much computing is going to move to the cloud, and with the breadth and global footprint that we have, and our continuing [commitment] to iterate at a very fast pace, it just has the chance to be the largest technology company.”
