With technology changing every industry today . organizations that neglect to invest in market-driven operations risk losing market share to existing competitors and new digital market entries. Therefore every organization, large and small, must rethink how to engage with customers, employees, partners and vendors. That means digitally transforming business processes to respond to increased online competition and the resulting explosive growth in data capital. This shift includes taking advantage of big data analytics and artificial intelligence, accelerating business innovation through DevOps and optimizing IT through hybrid cloud operations.

As such, Digital transformation can be empowering at an organizational scale. It can help transform the customer experience, power innovation, increase agility and flexibility, reduce operating costs and drive data-based decision-making.

Genuine digital transformation, in which enterprises take full advantage of  digital technologies such as artificial intelligence, automation, connected devices and remote collaboration and communications platforms, benefit from a cloud modernization strategy that involves people, processes and technology.
