Online round table

The (in)convenient facts about the cloud

Exclusive networking event for digital leaders in the Benelux

(meeting in Dutch)

Cloud environments have become popular as they offer rapid delivery, high-availability, a lot of functionality, scalability and flexibility. That's convenient, yet there are also some inconveniences.

  • Multi-cloud environments seem inevitable. Already more than 4 out of 5 organisation are working in a multi-cloud environment. How do you handle standardisation over the different environments?
  • How do you keep your cloud environments and on-premise data centres connected in a safe way?
  • Where do you find experts in the different cloud environments?
  • How do you stay up to date with fast developments in these different environments?
  • How do you monitor this complex IT landscape?
  • How do you keep complex contracts and costs under control?
  • Are you worried about a vendor lock-in and providers systematically increasing their prices?
  • Cloud vendors offer tools to get you into their environments, yet how easy is it to get out?
  • Do you still the have the expertise to host the systems on premise?

What do you consider convenient and inconvenient facts about the cloud? Let's share experiences during an online round table on Wednesday August 24 from 16:30 till 18:00. This will be an interactive zoom meeting, not a webinar. It will be an inspiring debate and good networking. This meeting will be held in Dutch.
