Welcome to Cloud Week 2024!

The pivot toward customer-centric innovation, coupled with a focused commitment to digital literacy, is not just a strategy for technology companies but a blueprint for progress throughout the UK and beyond.

A carefully considered and well-executed digital transformation can make your business more efficient and productive, optimising your resources and improving your bottom line.

By leveraging scalability, flexibility and accessibility companies can streamline their operations, improve collaboration, and maximise employee utilisation on strategic initiatives.

Looking to boost productivity while easing the burden on tech teams? Consider using low-code platforms. Simon Bown, BD Director at Kainos, explains. 

Unlock cloud success and avoid pitfalls with a cohesive cloud plan. Learn warning signs, build a transformation roadmap, and prioritize innovation for a seamless modernization journey.

How cloud-enabled digital transformation boosts efficiency and productivity and the critical importance of cloud-native technologies and application modernization in healthcare.

The serverless architecture has taken the cloud world by storm. Its inherent scalability, cost-effectiveness, and ease of management make it an attractive choice for boosting productivity and contributing to economic growth.

Moving excess workloads to the cloud for the singular purpose of saving money is done. Now, the hard work of implementing transformative business decisions in the cloud is ramping up

How can the public sector use cloud to boost efficiency (while achieving strategic goals)? Ricky Walker, Public Sector CTO at Kainos, explains.

There is a real opportunity, and appetite, for the public sector to catch up with their digital efforts and boost productivity – but security must always stay front of mind.

Traditional cloud services, while efficient and scalable, often fall short in meeting the specific needs of government entities due to concerns regarding data sovereignty, privacy, and regulatory requirements.

The South Eastern Health and Social Care Trust in Northern Ireland partnered with CareLineLive, a cloud-based provider of home care management software, to maximise resources and improve workplace efficiency for their domiciliary care service.

Giving the right people more access to accurate, well-organised data helps them make better, more timely decisions. Managing it all in a single location helps encourage collaboration between departments.

Our client's journey with Oracle Cloud EPM Narrative Reporting exemplifies how cloud-native technologies and application modernization can revolutionize traditional processes, enhance efficiency, and drive productivity.

Whether an organisation is already using cloud technology or just starting to, there are a number of areas that organisations should focus on to reduce the emissions caused by the usage of cloud technology

Taking a sustainable approach towards management & collection of data can lead to a marked decrease in the creation of dark data lakes, which in effect would reduce the costs in managing, storing & processing of large swathes of data.

GreenOps means maximising the value of your cloud provisions for sustainability as well as typical considerations like performance, security, and cost.

To get the most out of cloud tech for supporting sustainable growth, companies must pay attention to two key elements: enabling scalable capability whilst managing costs effectively.

The objective of GreenOps practice is to offer clear and measurable guidance to cloud users and stakeholders, raising their awareness of carbon intensity.

Yulia Adykankova, CBDO at Planeks, explores the intersection of FinOps and GreenOps

Cost control and intelligent compute are not just buzzwords - they are essential components of sustainable cloud and business strategies.

Cloud has huge potential advantages for carbon savings but to achieve the best outcomes for the planet, user behaviour is key

For certain workloads and steady-use applications, private cloud can deliver long-term cost savings.

Stephen McConnell, CTO at Cloud Gateway, explores why multiple cloud services and providers may just be the answer for many businesses looking to shape their own future as much as possible.

In this article, we will explore the risks of cloud concentration, and how a managed service provider can help you mitigate these.

Deploying hybrid and multi-vendor cloud environments poses the question, how do you best ensure the interoperability and portability of data and applications while remaining agile, secure and efficient? 

​​​​​​​For most companies, tech architects and testing leads, optimizing cloud application performance across global users and diverse network conditions is a top priority.

How to apply the principles for public cloud management to private cloud

The advent of cloud computing has heralded a new era of innovation, enabling businesses across industries to harness the power of emerging technologies such as AI, IoT, and HPC.

Cloud computing serves as a catalyst for innovation in various fields, none more so than in the realm of AI. The fusion of these two technological paradigms has unlocked unprecedented opportunities.

AI is nothing without a robust data strategy behind it. This should be a top priority for any business wanting to harness AI.

Both public and private sectors benefit from cloud-based quantum computing applications’ promise to address today’s real-world challenges across a diverse set of use cases.
