Accelerating the Digital Journey by Bridging the Public/Private Cloud Divide

A Frost & Sullivan survey published in 2022 showed that 75% of IT and business executives say cloud is now essential for being competitive, up from 60% in 2019. The only way to remain competitive and meet rising customer expectations is to have cloud ecosystems that link employees, customers, partners, vendors and devices, seamlessly. Businesses can now leverage market leading public AND private cloud together to enhance user experience and productivity, improve enterprise security, and accelerate their digital transformation.
