Is Your Business Ready for the Cloud?

My latest article in Smart Enterprise magazine provides "7 Ways to Determine Your Cloud-Readiness." The article gave me an opportunity to talk with some interesting people about key decisions, technology choices, and more that play into an organization's ability to move into the cloud or to expand its cloud presence.

Smart Enterprise is a custom magazine sponsored by CA and published by UBM. Its target audience is global enterprise CIOs.

You can read the entire article on the Smart Enterprise digital magazine site.

Self-Funding IT Innovation

I don't just write articles on politics and the publishing industry and science fiction; I also occasionally contribute to CA's Smart Enterprise magazine, a custom publication produced by UBM.

Smart Enterprise is published (online and in print) for CIOs at large enterprises around the world, so it is fun as a writer (and a reader) to see how businesses and other organizations in different conditions around the globe deal with business technology challenges. In the issue pictured above, I wrote "6 Ways to Self-Fund Innovation."

In the following issue, I have an article on how to know if your business is ready to move to the cloud or to expand its operations there. I'll post it when it's available.
