- Lots of Change: Most EMEA organizations plan to both migrate
more data to the cloud and they plan to move data back to
on-premises
- Use all Your Data: Most enterprises surveyed have data
across both cloud and on-premises environments making it complex to
extract value.
- Enterprise AI-readiness: Modern data architectures enable
organizations to drive more value from their data, optimize cloud
costs and become AI-ready
LONDON, June 21,
2023 /PRNewswire/ -- New research
from Cloudera, the hybrid data company, provides insights into
the struggles of IT leaders across EMEA as they strive to get more
value from their data. There is lots of change happening within
EMEA enterprises, indicating IT decision makers (ITDMs) must be
agile and prepared for change. For instance, the study has revealed
the complexities of operating in the cloud: nine-in-ten ITDMs
surveyed (92%) plan to migrate more data to the cloud over the next
three years, while 76% plan to repatriate data back on premises in
the next 36 months. Data and compliance concerns (55%), cloud
lock-in fears (54%) and non-compliance related cybersecurity
concerns (52%) are cited as the main reasons for organizations not
moving more of their data to the cloud.
The survey polled 850 ITDMs across the EMEA region regarding
their organization's cloud and data management practices, and the
challenges they face in making all their data actionable. The
results of the Evolve Data Study were published at the data
conference, Evolve London, on
June 21.
More than two-thirds (68%) of organizations currently store data
in a hybrid environment, meaning they utilize both
on-premises/private cloud and the public cloud. Additionally, seven
out of ten respondents (72%) work in organizations that currently
have a multi-cloud model, and are working with two or more
hyperscalers.
"With data sitting across a mosaic of hybrid cloud environments,
many organizations are finding it difficult to fully extract value
from their data assets," says Romain
Picard, Senior Vice President EMEA at Cloudera.
"Organizations need the capability to securely extract value from
their data, regardless of where it resides. But with the emergence
of modern data architectures, organizations can drive more value
from their data and optimize their cloud costs at the same
time."
To extract more value from their data, organizations are
increasingly embracing data analytics. But almost three quarters
(72%) of respondents agree that having data sitting across
different cloud and on-premises environments makes it complex to
extract value from all the data in their organization. ITDMs
currently estimate they are not using a third (33%) of their data
effectively.
"At a time when most enterprises are looking for benefits from
Artificial Intelligence, they need to stay ahead of the curve by
using modern data architectures," continues Romain Picard. "This approach enables all of
their data to be 'in play' to deliver benefits to the organization
while maintaining needed governance and security."
