Network Considerations For Cloud Migration To Data Center
Search Networking, Saturday, September 30,2023
Performance, security concerns and high costs are factors that prompt organizations to migrate workloads from cloud to data centers. Here's what to consider.
Make no mistake: Cloud is here to stay. Most companies now have at least some workloads delivered via a mixture of IaaS, PaaS and SaaS. Even when enterprises can exit from the cloud completely, it's a long and expensive exercise with dubious benefits.
However, organizations across all verticals and of all sizes are adjusting their cloud strategies and roadmaps. During the COVID-19 pandemic, organizations felt pressured and rushed to push workloads into clouds, especially networking functions. That pressure has lessened since the pandemic waned, and the rush has subsided. Now, some organizations have started to migrate workloads from cloud environments back to on-premises data centers.
