What do you think is the best approach for an organization considering a move to the cloud environment?
John Furrier
I talk to CIOs all the time on this..#1 issue is application environment being agile..closed vs open control vs no control
John Furrier
CIOs monitoring mindsets from in house IT (shadow IT) to their service providers like CSC etc to the technology vendors #SDDC is the vision they want across all three areas i just mentioned

identify candidate workloads for cloud, then determine what cloud resources would be required. Cost Analysis over three years v. traditional methods. IMHO

I think orgs need to be sure there is really value add and your org is not moving to cloud because it's "trendy". Be sure to understand risks/rewards.
David A. Chapa +1 Change for the sake of Change is never good.

Orgs need to define what services they are looking to deliver #IaaS #PaaS #DaaS - and then work backwards, prob 1st step is a hybrid cloud - extending On Prem footprint to scale out in an agile manner
Crowd Captain the next big thing DCaaS (datacenter as a service) google, AWS, io.com, open compute, Facebook,..this is the future imho

Planning. (grin)

Usually by bringing in more "less important" servers/apps. This will allow them to test the waters and when they see cloud apps up when disaster hits the company DC they will gravitate to cloud more =)
