Today, that term has a completely different connotation, because the \u2018cloud\u2019 itself is completely different. It would be erroneous to even refer to the cloud in the singular, as today\u2019s organizations often use a mix of various public and private clouds to support their already existing on-premises systems.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">This type of cloud strategy is known as <b>hybrid multicloud<\/b>, and it is rapidly growing in popularity. According to the recent <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nutanix.com\/enterprise-cloud-index\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Nutanix Global Enterprise Cloud Index (ECI)<\/a> survey, hybrid multicloud remains the dominant deployment model in India, with 44% of companies using it &#8211; a figure that surpasses all other countries surveyed. It is the ideal ecosystem to support a <b>cloud-smart approach<\/b>, which involves using the best IT environment for each application.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">With an optimized hybrid multicloud, you get scalability, cost-effectiveness, the ability to deploy across multiple environments in minutes, and an ecosystem that makes the best use of your organization\u2019s most valuable asset &#8211; <b>your data<\/b>. In a scenario where the entire world is in the midst of a data explosion, the cloud gives you access to infinite computing resources and on-demand data storage in a way that on-premises systems simply cannot match in terms of scale.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">However, without a proper strategy in place, these benefits will be rendered ineffective, and new challenges will pop up in their place. Here are the top 4 challenges for Indian IT teams according to the aforementioned Nutanix survey when it comes to cloud adoption:<\/span><\/p><ul><li><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><b>Data privacy comes first<\/b>, with 61% of respondents regarding it as a major challenge. Organizations have a responsibility towards their customers to protect all their sensitive data. However, different cloud providers use different IAM frameworks for their access, and not managing it seamlessly across all environments could lead to potential breaches.\u00a0<\/span><\/li><li><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><b>Ransomware protection &amp; data security comes second <\/b>with 60%. Having to adopt these new cloud technologies into your business can potentially lead to misconfigurations and security gaps. The IBM Cost of Data Breach 2024 indicates that breach data stored in public clouds incurred the highest average data breach cost at $5.17 million.<\/span><\/li><li><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><b>Linking data from multiple environments comes third<\/b> with 49%. In most enterprises, data is still locked in disparate silos. This hinders visibility &amp; reduces productivity for users requiring more agile data.<\/span><\/li><li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Finally, <b>following guidelines on data storage and usage<\/b> comes fourth with 47%. In 2024, the Indian government issued a variety of regulations with regard to data storage and security across different industries. Each comes with strict rules and timelines, making it a major challenge when having to deal with multiple IT environments. Some frameworks regarding data compliance India introduced this year include the recent telecom regulations and the <a href=\"https:\/\/ivaluegroup.com\/en-in\/resources\/blogs\/sebi-cscrf-explained\/\">CSCRF framework for SEBI-regulated entities<\/a>.<\/span><\/li><\/ul><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">If you noticed, all the aforementioned cloud challenges involve data in some capacity. Therefore, it would be apt to say that a comprehensive data strategy is key to the cloud transformation you are seeking.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">A <b>data strategy<\/b> involves utilizing your resources, talent, and technology to consolidate, organize, analyze &amp; leverage data to drive business decisions and deliver value for your customers. It consists of these <b>3 main pillars<\/b>:<\/span><\/p><ul><li><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><b>Data governance<\/b> is the process of defining clear policies and standards to ensure that your data is used in a way that is secure, ethical &amp; compliant with relevant regulations.<\/span><\/li><li><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><b>Data architecture<\/b> is the design blueprint for all the systems &amp; pathways where your data travels. It dictates how your data is collected, stored, processed &amp; maintained.<\/span><\/li><li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Finally, <b>data management<\/b> is the implementation of the aforementioned frameworks.
