Cloud Services - Get the Edge out of it post the Pandemic

As we head into 2022, we continue to feel the human toll of the global pandemic, but we already know it has been a watershed period in which attitudes and norms have permanently shifted — in our everyday lives and at work. Businesses have also changed. For many organizations, the pandemic has catalyzed digital business initiatives as we adapt to the demands of the new talent war, customer demand, who were forced into new digital options. B2B purchasers are happy to buy digitally, without a sales representative; B2C consumers are buying off social media platforms; Employees are physically distributed and communicating asynchronously; IT infrastructures must securing the “anytime, anyway, anywhere” way in which we’re operating; But to this age, we have seen customers esp. Government entities ask for on-prem solutions as the cloud is still perceived to be external and unsecure. There are still concerns on data privacy and a comfort that own data centre hosted applications can be hugged and secured with more controls. The “time to market” lag of an on-prem deployment (given the current supply chain issues due to the Pandemic) over a Cloud born deployment is expected to be anywhere between 3 – 6 months, and the pay as you model may allow your CAPEX project expenses for a medium web/mobile application to be reduced by 30 to 35% of overall project budget. A simple web and mobile deployment architecture for once of the CSPs is attached. More or less the same advantages can be met with other mature CSPs as they have equivalent Cloud services for web/mobile deployment.
