Cloud Without Compromise

Hybrid Cloud for the Enterprise

by Paul Zikopoulos, Christopher Bienko, Chris Backer, Chris Konarski, Sai Vennam ...

Many companies claim to have "gone to the cloud," yet returns from their efforts are meager or worse. Why? Because they've defined cloud as a destination, not a capability. Using cloud as a single-vendor, one-stop destination is fiction; in practice, today's organizations use a mosaic of capabilities across several vendors. Your cloud strategy needs to follow a hybrid multicloud model, one that ... Read more
