Decentralisation Of IT Is Pushing Up Costs In Indian Firms, Says A Study

Nearly 80 per cent of the Indian Information Technology (IT) decision-makers and business leaders feel that the decentralisation of technology is increasing costs or spending within their organisations, a study revealed on Monday (28 November).

According to the study ‘The State of the Cloud 2016’ by Cloud solutions provider VMware, IT departments are being sidestepped by business leaders who adopt their own Cloud-based technologies to innovate faster and meet growth objectives.

The study, conducted by market research firm Vanson Bourne for VMware, added that this raises a pressing need for IT to adopt a common operating environment for all Clouds to mitigate complexities, inefficiencies and security risks and more importantly, simultaneously enable innovation.
