Regardless of size, cloud can help any business that relies on IT to become more efficient, responsive and customer-centric, while reducing risk.
Moreover, public cloud doesn’t require the sort of upfront expenditure that on-premise hardware would – meaning it’s easier from a cost perspective to build a business case to put things into the public cloud.
This puts the benefits seemingly within very close reach. But beware the risks of rushing to the cloud to solve individual tactical issues without thinking about the bigger picture: doing so will invariably create problems for you later on, or mean you don’t achieve the benefits you expected. It’s vital you lay the groundwork correctly.
