- Moving applications, storage, and databases further into the cloud
- Experiencing the cost efficiencies of the cloud
- Building and expanding cloud roles and skillsets for IT professionals
- Increasing in complexity and lacking visibility across the entire hybrid IT infrastructure
SINGAPORE, March 30 (Bernama-GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SolarWinds, a leading provider of powerful and affordable IT management software, today revealed the findings of its SolarWinds IT Trends Report 2017: Portrait of a Hybrid IT Organisation. Overall, Singapore organisations have moved further into the cloud, with 90 percent having migrated critical applications and IT infrastructure over the past year. However, nearly three-fourths (71 percent) spend less than half of their annual IT budgets on cloud technology. Furthermore, nearly two-thirds (61 percent) of IT professionals said the cloud and hybrid IT have had at least somewhat of an impact on their careers, while 11 percent went so far as to say it has altered their career path. More than half (58 percent) of organisations have already hired/reassigned IT personnel, or plan to do so, for the specific purpose of managing cloud technologies.
“No job is more affected by ongoing technology disruptions than the role of the IT professional, which is why we explore these dynamics year after year,” said Joe Kim, senior vice president and chief technology officer, SolarWinds. “By creating this portrait of today’s hybrid IT organisation, we get to the heart of the shifts occurring so we can better understand and cater to the unique needs of these unsung heroes of business. For today’s IT professionals, it’s absolutely critical not only to put the right solutions in place to best manage hybrid IT environments, but to prepare organisations—and themselves—for continued technology advancements, even as we move beyond cloud.”
