Enterprise Cloud: The Solution to a Post Covid World with Nick Lippis and Special Guests
The unprecedented global pandemic has fundamentally changed behavior. Where we go, the products we consume, how we consume them, the supply chains that deliver them and the way we work and interact with each other has all been altered. During ONUG Digital Live last May, and with the release of the ONUG Collaborative’s first work on Automated Cloud Governance, we explored how governance controls technology. The community grappled with COVID redefining the future of work with where and how it gets done via Remote Workforce (RWF) projects that massively spun up in short notice. Large corporations are shifting toward AI for business automation processes and insights plus the construction of the enterprise cloud as its business platform. At ONUG Fall, the ONUG Collaborative will demonstrate the industry’s first Automated Multi-Cloud Governance reference implementation so as to control information and data in the cloud era. The enterprise cloud is the future of not just corporate computing, but corporate survival, offering speed, agility, AI, business continuity, disaster recovery, etc. The Enterprise Cloud is the solution to the post-COVID “new normal.”
