1. Leverage the cloud Cloud is a fundamental interoperability enabler— Companies with high interoperability also use and it’s now ubiquitous. Organizations can use it to the cloud to change the way they work. They hyperscale computing in their core operations and aim to standardize and simplify the processes at the edges. With this ability, organizations can pull modern cloud applications manage—enabling and query data across the entire enterprise. real-time insights and creating strategic Companies that successfully improve their agility. Interoperability like this breaks down interoperability start by moving existing applications organizational silos and creates a common to the cloud and investing in new, cloud-based thread so that change initiatives can flow to enterprise applications (SaaS). But more importantly, different parts of the organization in parallel, they use the cloud to connect data and and at speed. experiences across applications, creating The high interoperability group’s confidence one version of truth. Our research found that in the cloud reinforces findings from our more than 70% of European companies with high/ 2021 thought leadership piece, the Cloud medium interoperability adopted public cloud and Continuum: organizations that use cloud have already migrated more than 40% of their data beyond migration and infrastructure to reinvent and workloads. Only 60% of low/no interoperability themselves enjoy better cost savings, speed to companies have adopted public cloud, a 10% lag. market, talent retention and sustainability. Value untangled 19
