In the future, cloud computing will likely account for a larger percentage of enterprise technology spending than traditional methods of delivering applications. As organizations become more comfortable with the idea of their data being stored somewhere other than a basement server, the use of the cloud is only likely to increase. Rather than focusing solely on cost, cloud computing vendors are increasingly positioning themselves as agents of digital transformation. By helping to break down organizational silos, the cloud can help companies rethink business processes and accelerate business change, says the argument. While this argument might appeal to companies that are looking for a way to boost their digital transformation initiatives, others may find that their enthusiasm for cloud computing is waning as the costs of making the switch mount.
