Rising Costs and Changing Priorities: Rethinking Cloud Strategy
Cloud strategy is becoming increasingly difficult to ignore.
Rising costs, shifting commercial models, and growing concerns around data sovereignty are forcing organisations to take a closer look at where their systems sit, and whether existing platforms still make sense.
In Episode 5 of Trust Cloud Talks, Alasdair Hill, Sales Director at Zadara, shares a perspective on the pressures organisations are facing today, and why many are starting to rethink their approach to both hyperscale and virtualisation platforms.
Interview with Alasdair Hill – Sales Director at Zadara.
What this episode covers:
- Why cloud costs are becoming harder to control
- The pressure coming from both VMware and hyperscalers
- Growing concerns around data sovereignty
- Where cloud strategies are starting to fall short
- Why organisations are reconsidering their platform choices
Pressure from both sed
Organisations are increasingly finding themselves caught between two forces.
On one side, changes in the VMware ecosystem are creating new commercial and operational challenges. On the other, hyperscaler environments are introducing their own complexity, particularly around cost and control.
This is leaving many organisations in a difficult position, with decisions that are becoming harder, and more urgent to make.
From insight to action
The themes discussed in this episode reflect a broader shift towards flexibility, sovereignty, and more predictable cloud strategies.
