Yesterday afternoon, during CSC’s Super Session in Mascone North, Siki Guinta, Global VP Cloud Computing & Peter Allen, President Global Sales & Marketing, presented on Business Transformation - The Silver Lining in the Cloud. The main takeaway from their presentation is that “Pay As You Go” does not mean “Pay Less”. There are three strategies: Optimize scale, Workload driven, & Exponential return. CSC’s view on the optimize scale is to optimize around the business wordload/processes with business first strategies. Let the workload drive your transition. Address service orchestration and integration. See exponential return in the range of 30-70% savings compared with legacy support models.
The overall silver lining is Agility, Efficient & Effective Cost Model & Breakthrough Thinking. With Agility, you can acquire new business capabilities, rapid provisioning, and support M&A. With Efficient and Effective Cost Model, you can see cost transparency, use what you need, only when you need it and reduce TCO. Lastly, with Breakthrough Thinking, you can create new products and services, reduce time to value, and break down barriers to entry for new investments.
