The organisational impact of Bimodal IT

The cost-effective, quick and easy-to-implement nature of cloud computing is hard to ignore. As a result, we’re seeing ever more businesses moving into the cloud and away from traditional IT infrastructures. Analyst Gartner predicts that, by 2016, cloud services will make up the bulk of organisational IT spend. By the end of 2017, it expects that nearly half of all large enterprises will be using hybrid cloud, a combination of public and private cloud services.

While bimodal provides numerous benefits, it also poses many new challenges for the organisations that adopt it. This report is put together to help such organisations understand what those challenges are, and how to best prepare for and manage
them.
