Cloud is more than just a cost center. Moving to the cloud allows you to enable innovation at a global scale, expedite feature velocity for faster time to market, and drive competitive advantage by quickly responding to customer needs. So it's no surprise that many businesses are looking to transform their organization's digital strategy as soon as possible. But while it makes sense to adopt cloud quickly, it’s also important to take time and review key concepts prior to migrating or deploying your applications into cloud. Likewise, if you already have existing applications in the cloud, you’ll want to audit your environment to make sure you are following best practices. The goal is to maximize business value while optimizing cost, keeping in mind the most effective and efficient use of cloud resources.
