The Current CloudTruths we’ve come to realise
© 2012 Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu Limited
Hyper-Hybrid Cloud
Hybrid cloud model will be a dominant approach for large enterprise (private & public clouds) with the emergence of competency based clouds
As the services catalogue grows within the enterprise, there is a need for integration, monitoring and management capabilities – multi-cloud, multi-provider.
An emerging need for the subscriber and their ecosystem of providers to be able to share services for integration, workflow, business rules and business policy – cloud-to-cloud, in the cloud!

New Businesses
The Cloud provides a
launch pad for new agile
businesses who can take
advantage of the quick “go-to-
market” and scalability of
cloud computing.

New Business Models
Cloud Computing has
intrinsically changed the way in which businesses
operate. They are more agile,
efficient and profitable.

New Jobs
Cloud Computing does not take
employment away – but rather offers
additional employment as new skills and specialities are
essential.

Service Delivery
Cloud Computing has
revolutionised the way in which services are
delivered. They are flexible, on-
demand and cost-effective.
This is critical for SMMEs as well
as the Public Sector in Africa.

Assess Your Cloud Readiness
Alignment to Strategic Position
1. Does your business model lend itself to collaboration2. Is there high geographic dispersion of operations with common applications3. Stage of Growth

determinant of getting products /services to market quickly; then cloud is highly relevant for you.

Maturity of your industry segment
1. Are you operating in an industry / segment where growth is still intense2. Is the differentiation based on product innovation and service level3. Barriers to entry low for this sector
Industry segments that are mature demand innovation in order for organisations to remain profitable. Organisations in this space will find it necessary to explore and introduce
cloud computing offerings as internal as well as client facing solutions.

Cloud is a disruptive technology and its adoption will have significant impact on the way that business and
IT is operated. Strong leadership is required to ensure the necessary management teams are
committed to the critical changes.

value enabler

Assess Your Cloud Readiness
Complexity of Applications / Process Architecture
1. Are processes supported my homogenous applications or several point solutions2. Similar consideration for platforms and infrastructure3. Is there a strong integration architecture and discipline

Extracting part of a process / discrete application to be placed outside the firewall is easier done
within a mature integration discipline
ComplexBetter suited for cloud

Homogenous Harder to
embed cloud

Regulatory & Compliance Constraints
1. High levels of client and internal data disclosure2. External regulatory structures3. Internal Compliance / Controls
Organisations who deal with highly sensitive data or are in highly regulated industries need
to be certain that cloud computing is a suitable solution for them.
Assess Your Cloud Readiness
High RegulationAbility to execute clouds solution may be harder / longer – reduces value
Less Regulation Higher value / return as less
complexity during deployment

Business / IT Risks
1. Market and Reputational – e.g. Media scrutiny on transactions2. Technical 3. Security and Privacy
Strong IT governance is required to ensure that IT decisions pertaining to Cloud are done in a timely manner and include the
relevant stakeholders, e.g. changing Cloud providers, expanding / extending Cloud use.
Assess Your Cloud Readiness
Un-governedBusiness risk levels are high – may offset value
Mature Easier to manage
transition – may impede

IT Readiness and Scale
1. Data Analytics and Information Management 2. IT Infrastructure3. IT Sourcing & Vendor Management
Smaller units have the ability to move and react quickly will able to take advantage of reduced costs
and the agility of cloud quicker.
Assess Your Cloud Readiness
Small and FlexiblePossible faster adoption to cloud demands
MatureMore
resistance with reduced value

1. Organisations absorb change and realise business value at different rates. Cloud initiatives need to be recognised for the change agents they are ... and managed accordingly
2. Cloud computing needs to seek out business value and rapidly move beyond a technical conversation.
3. An objective view on Cloud Readiness should drive the rate and pace of adoption ... Low hanging fruit
4. The path to hyper-hybrid will likely lead to custom extensions of initial cloud services, increased interfaces to core back-office systems and data, and the pursuit of SaaS application capability cloud offerings.
