The modern world is fast-paced and digitally connected due to cloud computing technologies employed by organizations worldwide. But a single cloud vendor cannot cover all business use cases. Hence, a multi-cloud approach is adopted that can overcome the limitations of a single vendor but adds more complexity to cloud workloads. The emma platform presents a solution to this problem!

Digital transformation is how an organization integrates digital technologies to transform its processes, operations, and customer experiences. For modern companies, a successfully executed digital transformation strategy results in substantial business growth. According to a 2021 Accenture report “Make the Leap, Take the Lead,” a survey of 4300 executives revealed that businesses that invested in digital transformation technologies after 2018 grew 5x faster than laggards.

Organizations are increasingly realizing the importance of digital transformation in their path to growth. Globally, $1.6 trillion was spent on digital transformation in 2022 and is forecasted to increase up to $3.4 trillion by 2026. A major chunk of this growth could be attributed to rapid cloud adoption. It helps organizations design, develop, and deliver applications at reduced operational costs and increased scalability.

Modern digital transformation is mainly driven by having a robust multi-cloud strategy. But managing services, for example, storage, databases and compute power, etc., from multiple cloud service providers simultaneously can be challenging for businesses.

So, what are the challenges?

3 major challenges associated with adopting a multi-cloud-enabled digital transformation strategy

Multi-cloud adoption is a new norm, especially among enterprise organizations. Research suggests that 82% of enterprise organizations are using multi-cloud workloads and 78% are using more than 3 public clouds. However, having a multi-cloud environment comes with many challenges that impede digital transformation initiatives. These include:

Increased operational complexity

Each cloud service provider offers proprietary tools and services that require specialized knowledge and experience to operate. Also, integrating cloud platforms with modern technologies like Artificial Intelligence, Edge Computing, and Internet of Things, requires a skilled workforce that can be hard to find. Hence, leveraging various cloud services from multiple vendors can add a layer of operational complexity to the business which can be challenging to manage and hinder digital transformation initiatives.

Inconsistent management & governance

Each cloud platform has its policies and procedures to govern its respective services. Hence, a robust multi-cloud governance system needs to be in place to streamline cloud workloads. Such a system would need to govern various cloud operations like costs, security and compliance, inventory, data silos, data migration, scalability, and automation for all vendors. Hence, it becomes challenging for organizations to implement governance across multiple cloud platforms.

Security

Protecting data from unauthorized use is critical for organizations achieving digital transformation. However, it becomes a serious concern for businesses to manage security when data is spread across multiple platforms. According to Cloud Complexity Report 2023by NetApp, a survey of 1300 data and technology executives, report that a staggering 98% of respondents believe that integrating the cloud has enhanced the complexities of their busi ness operations with cybersecurity risk being the top challenge (45%).

Accelerating digital transformation in a multi-cloud environment with the emma platform

Accelerating digital transformation in a multi-cloud environment with the emma platform When executed effectively, a multi-cloud strategy enables organizations to drive digital transformation as it innovates the way applications are designed, developed, and delivered across clouds. With a cloud first, cloud agnostic approach, organizations seek to deploy applications flexibly and with performance on their mind on the most suitable - public, private, and edge - clouds in alignment with application requirements and their business goals. However, transitioning from a strategy to practical implementation can be challenging.

The emma — enterprise multi-cloud management application — platform offers a way out. It is the only no-code, cloud agnostic solution providing a suite of integrated capabilities to support organizations manage various cloud environments, cloud spend and cloud networking in complex multi-cloud settings.

These integrated capabilities of the emma platform play a crucial role in enabling and accelerating digital transformation.

Let’s have a look at how.

Fuel innovation

The ability to manage a diverse cloud environment ‘end-to-end’, including the underlying network and its connectivity, facilitates faster provisioning of resources, automated deployments, and more efficient collaboration between development and operations teams. This accelerates the development and deployment of new digital products and services, reducing time-to-market for innovations.

Free-up resources

By streamlining cloud management tasks and minimizing manual intervention, the emma platform frees up valuable resources, time, and effort that can be redirected toward innovation and strategic projects. This enables businesses to experiment with new technologies, develop cutting-edge solutions, and stay ahead of the competition in the rapidly evolving digital landscape.

Improve agility

Digital transformation often requires organizations to be agile and scalable in their operations. The integrated cloud management and cloud network capabilities of the emma platform empowers businesses to scale their resources up or down as needed, respond quickly to market changes, and support digital initiatives without major disruptions. Further, its cloud agnostic approach enables users to manage multiple cloud providers from a single platform while ensuring vendor neutrality and preventing vendor lock-in. This allows them to choose the best cloud services and solutions for their specific needs, promoting a more flexible and adaptable digital transformation strategy.

Optimize expenses

Cost management is a critical aspect of digital transformation, as businesses need to optimize their cloud spending while delivering value to customers. The intelligent cloud cost management capabilities of the emma platform help identify cost inefficiencies, analyze spending patterns, and enforce cost controls. This allows organizations to allocate resources more effectively and invest in areas that drive innovation.

The future of multi-cloud management

The drivers of digital transformation encompass a combination of technological advancements, changing customer demands, competitive pressures, and the need for improved efficiency and agility in an increasingly digital world.

Organizations that recognize the value of a multi-cloud strategy as enabler of these drivers and embrace an integrated multi-cloud management platform as emma to manage the intrinsic complexities, are better positioned to thrive in the digital age.

Needless to say that using various, often not integrated tools result in challenges related to lack of comprehensive visibility, increased complexity, reduced efficiency, limited interoperability, and higher costs.

The integration of cloud management, cloud cost management, and cloud networking management does not only make the emma platform unique, it also creates a holistic and efficient cloud management environment.

This comprehensive approach enables digital transformation by promoting agility, scalability, cost optimization, data-driven decision-making, security, and innovation. It empowers businesses to adapt to the ever-changing digital landscape, accelerate their transformation efforts, and unlock the full potential of cloud technologies for their success.
