How can AWS customers achieve optimal ROI on their cloud, application, and data storage modernization?

Doing “more with less” is a macro trend in today’s economic climate, and with it has come a laser focus on the ROI of technology and cloud cost optimization. In fact, according to Forrester Consulting, 51% of companies spent at least $7.5M on the public cloud over the last 12+ months while FinOps Foundation expects cloud spend to increase by 29%. However, corresponding FinOps adoption paints a picture of varying maturities with 37% reported as just starting, 42% as relatively established, and only 12% as mature and evolving.

The reason for these varying stages of adoption seem to be directly correlated to the skills gap, with 91% reporting significant gaps in at least one area for stakeholders involved with DataOps, this according to Enterprise Strategy Group. So, with all this uncertainty and all of these variables, how can we achieve optimal ROI on cloud, application, and data storage modernization?

Join NetApp and a select group of likeminded executives as we discuss your current cloud migration and data modernization challenges, as well as prospective solutions to help make the migration of enterprise workloads easier and cost-effective.
