A Massive Shift of Cloud Infrastructure is Underway


According to the Survey of Business Uncertainty (SBU), only 2.5 percent of the US workforce worked from home in 2018. By 2025, approximately 30% of the US workforce is projected to be working from home multiple days a week.

The shift to a hybrid working model demands that IT and business leaders provide a solution for stakeholders to securely interact with their cloud applications and data. While increased public cloud investment helps by allowing IT teams to provide infrastructure, security is a shared responsibility between the public cloud provider and the enterprise.

Given these challenges, 49% of organizations are expected to embrace a hybrid cloud as the ideal operating model for data security and compliance in the next three to five years. The trend is clear, but with so many factors and varied cloud options, it is difficult to decide which platform, deployment model, or managed service will optimally allocate resources while keeping IT infrastructure operating with minimal risk.

What is Cloud Benchmarking?


Cloud benchmarking is a multi-faceted procedure that provides an independent perspective to help organizations understand where their cloud capabilities lie on the digital maturity curve, both in absolute and competitive terms.

The insights are based on benchmarking the client’s cloud capabilities against peers and the best in class across industries. This helps organizations learn where gaps in their cloud environment are vis-a-vis the competition, so they know where to invest their time, effort, and resources to maximize the value and performance of their cloud initiatives.


Trianz’ Approach to Cloud Benchmarking


Our cloud benchmarking services are powered by over 1.5 million data points, along with primary research and further data collection capabilities. With access to leaders across more than 40,000 companies from various-sized segments, industries, and geographies, we can quickly gather fresh perspectives to address any relevant questions that may improve the cost or performance of your cloud and IT environment.

Using a data-driven approach, as well as a series of comprehensive surveys, we establish a multi-stage model we call the “Digital Enterprise Evolution Model” or DEEM.

Our DEEM for cloud allows us to measure and execute cloud performance benchmarks in terms of:

  • On-demand self-service

  • Service models – (SaaS, IaaS, PaaS)

  • Deployment models

  • Rapid elasticity

  • Resource pooling

  • Process digitalization

  • Risk management

Output from this benchmarking process is used to crystallize a unique, data-driven vision for your organization based on strategic cloud priorities, ROI, as well as to develop execution roadmaps and plans.
