Your cloud strategy may be “all in, right now” or a slower, incremental approach. But whichever way you choose, modernization is a must.
Cloud without modernization, as a cloud security architect once told me, is just a move from one data center to another, dragging all the problems of legacy environments behind it. Forrester’s research shows that expectations of saving money by lifting and shifting workloads to the public cloud are misplaced. There are few benefits or other advantages that companies gain from shifting IT spending from capital expense to operational expense.
