So here is the updated cloud first journey that many an organisation is on:
- ok. I need a cloud strategy
- So the developers hate me
- Can we build a cloud on what we already have?
- No!? Ok, well lets put everything in public cloud.
- ah… we can’t put everything in public cloud. some of it yes, but not everything. Why? There’s Governance, Data Sovereignty, performance, security requirements to consider…
- Ok well…lets go Hybrid Cloud….yay. So we need a private cloud then. Lets build one
- Flipping ‘eck. Building private cloud is hard!!
- oh… Developers still hate me
- Wowsa…Managed Private Clouds. Many vendors will build and run a private cloud for me. toot toot !! 🙂
- Man alive. Now there’s multi-cloud management platforms. I can broker all my clouds. I lOVE my life!!!
