DATA CENTRE PREDICTIONS
DATA CLOUDS
ARE GATHERING
While the march to the
cloud continues, business
decision-makers are
recognising that such
a complex migration
cannot happen overnight.
Here, Julian Thomas,
Principle Consultant
at South Africa-based
data solutions
specialist, the PBT
Group, talks to us about
some of the influencing
factors to a more slow-
paced transition.
T
he tech industry has seen a
whirlwind of adoption as new
technologies emerge in this Fourth
Industrial Revolution. However, there is an
undoubtedly calmer approach, especially
as business data gradually vapours into the
cloud. In fact, there is no doubt that the
future of the data centre lies in the cloud.
As a result, as we move forward this
year, we can expect a continued and
renewed focus on moving on-premise
data into the cloud environment and
continued adoption of cloud-based data
