Context
Cloud data management is a way to manage data across cloud platforms, either with or instead of on-premises storage. The cloud is useful as a data storage tier for disaster recovery, backup and long-term archiving. With cloud data management, organisations can purchase resources as needed. They can also share data across private and public clouds, as well as in on-premises storage. A cloud-based data management system takes on the function of a traditional data management system tailored to the needs of the cloud. In this blog post, we will explore the key capabilities of cloud data management as well as its benefits.

Analysis

Here are six important capabilities to consider when creating your cloud data strategy: The cloud can drive innovation, uncover efficiencies, and help redefine business processes. But you can only achieve these benefits when your cloud infrastructure allows you to integrate, synchronise, and relate all data, applications, and processes—on-premises or in any part of your multi-cloud environment. As companies put data at the heart of their business processes, the most successful organisations recognise the role of high-quality, trusted data in their digital transformation initiatives. As this recent survey by McKinsey & Company notes, “Companies that empower employees to consistently use data as a basis for their decision making are nearly twice as likely as others to report reaching their data and analytics objectives.” In addition, data regulations have become increasingly complex and dynamic.
