As CIOs and CDOs are leading efforts to support their Businesses during & after the Covid disruption, some of the challenges in the legacy Data platforms have become more prominent.
- Inability to quickly scale capacity based on market conditions.
- Large maintenance & operations costs - Hardware, license, DBA & Application support
- Lack of support for Agile development needs to be driven by Digital Transformation
The leading cloud data platforms from Azure & AWS offer a compelling & ever-maturing value proposition to overcome these challenges. This coupled with increased pressure on Capex & Opex costs has accelerated the CIO’s need to embark on a Data Modernization Journey
