Every CIO needs to adopt a cloud strategy typically moving some e-commerce workloads to the public cloud. Yet, the migration path for the modern enterprise can be constrained by legacy barriers. With mission-critical applications that run in a diverse suite of legacy mainframe to helpdesk to IoT devices, how does one get started and what does this entail?

The reality for any enterprise whose core business is driven by a reliance on corporate-owned technology structure with strict ownership of critical assets is that it operates with many constraints. The cloudification and multi-cloud strategy requires a more pragmatic and systematic approach balancing workloads in the cloud and on-premise enterprise networks.

Cloud Networking Transformation

Enterprises are definitely initiating a compelling migration from legacy to agility, automation, and data sets analytics across their networks. All these changes still require the assurance of today’s critical operations. It also means thoughtful changes and evolution in people, processes and technology. A deficit of expert talent and skillset can be challenging, too, as there’s a need for a systematic focus on deployment and operational training. It is clear that enterprise cloud network adoption is not an overnight lift and shift.
