Some applications are better in the cloud, some are better on-premise.
We are using a hybrid cloud model. Some apps are already in the cloud. Many more will start migrating next year and following years.
At this time, customer data is not approved to be in a public cloud, but there is an attempt to get that changed.
The lines of business will have the option to use private cloud, or public cloud. Some applications will use both. In times of high utilization, they may burst from private cloud to public could resources or from public cloud resources to private cloud.
All applications will have to be rewritten to support the cloud (private or public).
There is also a shift, that we will be developing less applications in house. The executives want software to be purchased first if available before seeking in house solutions.
They also want to simplify how much software we have. If there are multiple applications that have some of the same functions in different lines of business, they want those same functions offered as one service instead of being duplicated.
There are issues currently that I cannot go into without exposing myself, but the cloud currently isn't working as it should. Some teams around the cloud space aren't acting as they should defeating one of the main advantages of cloud computing.
