Migrating to the Cloud

And the organizational changes that will follow.

Ok, so I'm still on the whole cloud computing thing.  I can't help it, it's everywhere!  That said, have you ever thought of the impact cloud computing will have as more and more organizations migrate technology to the cloud?  Below are a few paragraphs from Vanessa Alvarez's article, Cloud Migrations Trigger Organizational Challenges:

"When organizations migrate to cloud computing, most of the focus is on technology components such as security, automation, and policy management. There is, however, another key element that's necessary for a cloud model to work within enterprises, and it involves organizational behavior.

Enterprises today are grappling not only with evolving operational models within their data centers, but also with challenges presented by internal organizations struggling to adapt to those technological changes. Often, the human element of cloud computing is left out of the broader discussion.

Key to any cloud computing deployment is understanding that it will spark changes not only an enterprise's data center, but also in the enterprise's organizational behavior. These changing behaviors will need to be addressed if enterprises are to successfully deploy cloud computing."

About Brianna Tinjum

I am happy to say I love my job! Everyday there is a new challenge and something new to learn, it keeps things interesting. I was very happy when we started Good Training because it gave me an opportunity to help people and share knowledge. Outside of the office I enjoy being active. When weather permits you may catch me riding my bike around the lakes of Minneapolis or hiking in Northern Minnesota. In the winter I get out snowboarding as much as possible and I always try to take a trip to the mountains. I made it out to Bridger Bowl in Bozeman, MT at the end of February 2008 and it was a fantastic time! Year round I participate in dance and yoga classes to mix things up. I love watching movies and you could say I may have seen too many. :) I also have a passion for reading - if I find a good book it can consume all of my free time.
