Cloud solution fitting into the jigsaw of the current IT eco-system
We have seen a significant increase in cloud solution adaption during the financial crises period. Customers / users are now more cautious in evaluating the cloud solutions. In addition to the adaptability, user friendly and scalable criteria, organizations are now more concerned about any third party system’s capability in interacting with the existing solutions in the eco-system. Where as the eco-system may have few home grown solutions, standalone applications, third party systems, back office solutions etc.,
Opting a cloud business application affects all the areas of an organization, from sales & marketing, technical, operational and till customer support. An integrated cloud system should ensure that there is no redundancy in data, yet without compromising on its security. So System should have a flexible architecture which ensures integration with external systems and internal systems of the organization. And the overall system should be tightly integrated resulting in enriching the value of their offerings through the synergy of functionality brought together on these platforms.
Though there are good number solution providers aware of this fact, still few of the solutions offered to Cloud Business are not fully geared up in delivering these promises or expectations to their customers.
