Cloud environments will remain
predominantly hybrid in the coming years,
enhancing the importance of a clearly
defined cloud governance and orchestration
strategy to optimize for security, self-
service and agility, while minimizing costs.

@STU
STU MINIMAN, SENIOR ANALYST
The Future of Cloud data shows that while adoption of
SaaS, public and private cloud have rapid growth, most
companies are working tactically rather than
strategically. Innovation and agility require commitment
from the business to embrace transformation by
changing processes along with tools. We are still in the
early innings of cloud delivering transformation; it’s
exciting times for those working with technology.

The Future of Cloud 2016 Survey underscores the cloud’s critical
role in driving digital transformation across industries. Cloud
adoption – including hybrid cloud – continues to accelerate
along with growth in cloud-based applications and services. We
can expect to see business and technical decision makers look
to cloud providers who are global, trusted and hybrid and offer
open development tools and intelligent services to drive
business transformation.

"Open source software is the cornerstone for cloud
computing. Open, collaborative development has nurtured
a vibrant ecosystem that is fueling new services that in
turn spur commercial adoption. From container
technologies to high-velocity projects such as Kubernetes
and Cloud Foundry, open source and open development are
further accelerating the move to
the cloud for businesses for all
sizes across all industries."

@ACQUIA
PETER TROOST, SENIOR VICE PRESIDENT ENGINEERING
Cloud’s impact on technology trends in the past few
years alone has been explosive and transformational.
The growing adoption of cloud solutions is a testament
to the fact that organizations across all industries
recognize the power and possibility of the cloud. In a
short amount of time, cloud has become the strategic
advantage for building, deploying, and managing
digital experiences more rapidly and reliably
throughout every stage of development.

Cloud technologies allow rapid expansion like never before, so
even small startups can have access to enterprise technology at
affordable costs giving limitless potential to new ideas born in
the cloud.
We expect to see more and more new breeds of technology rise
up and challenge market leaders at rapid rates which is very
exciting.

@JOEKINSELLA
JOE KINSELLA, FOUNDER & CTO
This year, the Future of Cloud survey found that relying on a
single vendor is no longer status quo. Multi-cloud and hybrid
environments deliver many benefits, but managing the
complexity without straining resources is IT’s next hurdle.
Success hinges on balancing cost, performance, and security
– companies with the right approach show just how much of a
game changer cloud can be, when done right.

JASON COHEN, FOUNDER & CTO
The Future of Cloud Survey highlights the increased
investment in DEVOPS which provides the agility,
reliability and cost efficiency needed for continuous
product innovation. The key for innovation at speed will
be how DEVOPS teams are integrated into the broader
product organization. Product development is not a linear
process. It’s imperative that DEVOPS have a seat at the
table throughout the entire development process to
ensure success.@ASMARTBEAR

govCMS is the whole of
government content
management and website
hosting service for Australian
government agencies.
Together with the
Department of Finance,
Acquia helps Australian
government agencies meet
the new digital government
standards by utilizing a
secure, reliable, and flexible
open cloud platform.
@AUSGOVCMS
Prior to 2015, all of Australia’s government agencies were using
different web content management solutions for their respective
digital properties. The govCMS project originated from the demand to
provide one central and standardized platform to help create
efficiencies in government and improve the digital delivery of citizen
experiences.
Digital Experience
Delivery
The govCMS platform is now rolling out across the Australian public
service at the federal, state, and local levels. The entire project is a
landmark for transformation in government – now more than 50 of
Australia’s government agencies are using govCMS to deliver engaging
citizen experiences in the cloud.

@CLOUDHEALTHTECH
Ziff Davis needed a centralized view of activity across a sprawling
cloud infrastructure that includes all of its many subsidiaries and
lines of business. Moreover, they needed a cloud service management
solution that would accommodate their hybrid environment.

Honeywell has become a
household name. Today,
Honeywell’s Business
Technologies (HBT) division
continues to break new
ground, transforming the
products for which it is so
well known into connected
software and services. With
Azure, Honeywell is
innovating on the Internet of
Things (IoT) technology, and
using the outputs of that
connectivity to add new
value for customers.
@HONEYWELL_HOME
Honeywell’s foray into connected products unlocked a new
opportunity to connect with customers. They needed a way to learn
how their customers are using their products and what interests
them.Discrete
Manufacturing
The data Honeywell collects in Azure creates a flywheel that enables
greater innovation. They release a connected product to market,
collect information from that product, and learn about how
consumers use it to continually improve and iterate.

True Alliance is home to
some of the world’s most
famous “must have” brands
including: Ben Sherman,
Coach, Lacoste, Leejeans,
Nautica, Reebok, Riders,
Rockport, Speedo, Teva, The
North Face, UGG Australia,
Kipling, Sanuk and Wrangler.
True Alliance is focused on
investing in the long term
success of all of their brands
– many of which are market
leaders in their field.
@POLARSEVEN_COM
True Alliance initial platforms were hosted internally and True
Alliance were seeing limitations with the ability to scale and manage
environments.
Continuing to manage hardware in house was becoming expensive and
impractical so they began to look for a cloud solution.
Infrastructure Build &
Application Migration
Increased uptime across the platforms has helped to increase sales
and improve the customer experience.
Using RDS the administration overhead has been reduced and there
have been savings in upfront costs from having to build new
environments for hardware and software as the business grows.
