Security gains
The topic was widely debated during the online event “Cloud: Don’t Panic” organized by Sole24ore in collaboration with Elmec and Deloitte and by Nicola Ciniero, former CEO of IBM in Italy and today a member of the board of the specialized company from Varese. in all-round IT solutions, the confirmation of a systemic adoption of the technology has arrived.
“Today the best insurance for a company – explained the manager, addressing the issue of security – is to put their data in a data center cloud based, guaranteeing protection a million times higher than that of a classic company network ».
Then there is a second double factor, remarked by Ciniero, at the basis of the maturity of the approach “cloud first”: An ecosystem that continuously feeds the offer of services (also thanks to the data centers opened in Italy by various international providers) and the awareness of the debt of specific cloud-related skills, which must be quickly filled.
“The suspicions related to reliability and cost control – added Michele Paolin, partner of Deloitte – are gradually transforming into awareness of the advantages offered by the cloud, and especially by a hybrid model that combines public cloud and private cloud. But it is necessary to know how to accept and manage this model with planning, tackling a path tailored to the company and structured by progressive steps “.
The plus of energy sustainability
Companies therefore have the task of facing a migration that does not hide complexity, requires in-depth assessments from an economic and compliance (as well as in terms of technology and security) and which makes the ability to better orchestrate critical information, distributing applications in different computational environments, one of its main benefits.
