The Three Phases of a Successful Cloud Strategy
A successful cloud strategy must fully enable the flexibility that the technology offers. Waddell said embedding that directly into environments is crucial.
“We can build flexibility into your application architecture,” he said. “We just need to alter our approach slightly from ‘plan, build, run’ to ‘plan, build, evolve,’ where we leverage our tried-and-true engagement model to help you drive adoption of these technologies.”
Those three phases are crucial, and making sure they are part of your full strategy can be the key to success. Waddell said that’s why taking a full-portfolio approach that has integrated, end-to-end accountability can put organizations a step ahead.
“The benefits from this co-engineering solution include one interface for managing the software-defined data center, along with hardware, as well as one-click lifecycle management across the infrastructure stack,” he said. “Once this hybrid cloud plumbing is in place, we can layer on operations insight, then hybrid cloud automation, orchestration features, and then integrate the public clouds for the workloads that belong there.”
“We don’t want to create a scenario where you introduce a solution that creates an operational silo within the organization,” Waddell said.
