Survey Reveals Cloud Computing Benefits and Challenges

Now in 2019, enterprise adoption of cloud computing has gone far beyond the exploratory phase. The use of cloud is seen as mission critical rather than strategic. Businesses use services from IaaS to higher order platforms like PaaS, containers and serverless to deploy their applications in production.

Now that cloud is more established than merely emerging, what do businesses see as the benefits and challenges? In other words, how are current cloud deployments living up to the earlier hype about the wonders of cloud?

Cloud Survey

To explore this, Datamation offered an in-depth and wide ranging survey about how businesses feel about their cloud platforms, State of the Cloud, 2019. Let’s look at some of the results.

Agility

Clearly, agility is one of the biggest benefits of cloud computing. The survey responses indicate this by listing faster deployment as the top choice for migrating to the cloud.

Cloud helps organizations take their product to market faster by streamlining the deployment process. The self-service capabilities, auto scaling and programmatic interfaces reduce the deployment times and make organizations far more agile.
