According to research by APM and NPM vendor <a href=\"https:\/\/www.netscout.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">NETSCOUT<\/a>, 80% of all enterprise plan to move at least some of their applications to a public cloud environment. NETSCOUT outlined these statistics in their 14th annual <a href=\"https:\/\/www.netscout.com\/press-releases\/netscout-releases-14th-annual-worldwide-infrastructure\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Worldwide Infrastructure Security Report<\/a>, which covered network and security planning and decisions across enterprises and service providers.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><div class=\"widget\"><div class=\"aside-card\">\t\t\t<div class=\"textwidget\"><p><a class=\"msp-speedbump\" title=\"Download link to Managed Service Providers Buyers Guide\" href=\"https:\/\/solutionsreview.com\/cloud-platforms\/managed-service-provider-buyers-guide\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-1682\" src=\"https:\/\/solutionsreview.com\/cloud-platforms\/files\/2018\/07\/Managed-Service-Providers-Speedbump-1.jpg\" alt=\"Download Link to Managed Service Providers Buyers Guide\" width=\"771\" height=\"170\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div><\/div><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">The survey found that on average, 49% of all enterprise applications have been migrated to the cloud already. This figure suggests that widespread business adoption of the cloud is still a popular idea. However, many enterprises still have various concerns that prevent them from going forward with a migration plan. While most enterprises listed security as a top concern, other reasons enterprises aren&#8217;t migrating include stability, availability, compliance, and costs.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">The cost concern is interesting because most companies list decreased costs as a reason to migrate. NETSCOUT found that 56% of businesses migrate to the cloud because of overall cost reduction. Curiously, that was not the top reason respondents cited for moving to the cloud. 58% of those surveyed claimed the need for a disaster recovery system as a motivation for public cloud migration, especially in European territories. NETSCOUT speculates that this is due to the GDPR regulations outlining a need for businesses to integrate a disaster recovery plan.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">The survey also found that the respondents&#8217; lack of cloud knowledge held them back from adopting a public cloud service. 46% stated that they had insufficient cloud expertise on a technical level to justify a shift to the cloud; 45% didn&#8217;t have enough cloud business expertise. This provides evidence that companies are taking a <a href=\"https:\/\/solutionsreview.com\/cloud-platforms\/how-to-create-a-flawless-cloud-migration-strategy-in-3-easy-steps\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">smart approach to cloud adoption and migration<\/a>, as they aren&#8217;t simply jumping head-first into the cloud.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><em>Our <a href=\"https:\/\/solutionsreview.com\/cloud-platforms\/managed-service-provider-buyers-guide\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">MSP Buyer&#8217;s Guide<\/a> contains profiles on the top cloud MSP vendors for AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud, as well as questions you should ask providers and yourself before buying.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><em><strong>Check us out on\u00a0<a class=\"external\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/CloudTechReview\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow noreferrer\">Twitter<\/a>\u00a0for the latest in Cloud news and developments!<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><div class=\"widget\"><div class=\"aside-card\">\t\t\t<div class=\"textwidget\"><p><a class=\"msp-speedbump\" title=\"Download link to Managed Service Providers Buyers Guide\" href=\"https:\/\/solutionsreview.com\/cloud-platforms\/managed-service-provider-buyers-guide\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-1682\" src=\"https:\/\/solutionsreview.com\/cloud-platforms\/files\/2018\/07\/Managed-Service-Providers-Speedbump-1.jpg\" alt=\"Download Link to Managed Service Providers Buyers Guide\" width=\"771\" height=\"170\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div><\/div><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Of all the cloud migration barriers for enterprises, 61% of all companies listed security concerns as a major reason not to move to the cloud.
