The cloud modernisation journey: modernising your data in the cloud to become truly data centric

11th June 2021 | 10:00am - 11:30am BST
How can we make our organization data-driven and drive data literacy throughout the business?

A Meet the Boss roundtable brought to you by Appsbroker and Google Cloud

2020 has driven digital transformation in a way that has never been seen before, and one of the key themes has been accelerated adoption around data literacy for organisations. Being able to understand what changes are occurring in a business, which parts are being impacted, and how appropriately to react is one of the highest priorities on any CIO or CEO’s agenda right now. CEOs typically use their financial data to make informed decisions – but how could the other 97 percent of data impact the growth of your business?

Arguably, the most important part of data enablement across an organisation is the availability of a cutting-edge data platform or data estate. Cloud platforms offer a technological estate that learns from the best in microservices architectures, to adoption of machine learning and artificial intelligence, from a capability perspective and from a non-functional perspective.

So how can you best exit a data centre while rapidly building and migrating data into a new cloud environment? And how can you build a data estate and modern data platform to compete with the digital natives in their sector?

Join Appsbroker, Google Cloud and a select group of senior thought leaders to share best practice in your migration to the cloud, to discuss how to map your journey to drive agility and to understand how data should fit into your modernisation strategy.

Discussion Topics

On your digital transformation journey, what data challenges or blind spots have you uncovered? And how have you modified your data strategy to align with business objectives?
How is your cloud migration strategy supporting your teams to access data insights? Is data centre storage a barrier to accessing data?
What does the ideal data estate look like to you? And what needs to change for you to achieve this goal?
