3:30pm - 3:45pm | Business-Driven Approach to Cloud Governance Adoption
Cloud adoption was accelerated during the pandemic period, but organisations find that amidst this disruption, that managing cloud spend becomes more demanding than ever. A survey reveals that over 30% considered their cloud spending wasteful, and 80% found managing their cloud spending a challenge. One of the key reasons is the lack of understanding of IT governance frameworks and cloud overspending which in many organisations are grappling with an unfamiliar cost model for IT and lack a deep understanding of how to manage them in their business operations.
