A new study from Forrester Consulting, commissioned by Oracle, emphasises the essential role of multi-hybrid cloud platforms to collate the mass of information that enables analysis of insights and inform business-critical decisions.
Forrester conducted an online survey of 670 technology and business decision makers from organisations across Asia Pacific (AP) and Europe and Middle East markets, with responsibility over data infrastructure and data strategy, while also conducting exclusive interviews with 10 C-level executives across these respondents to dig deeper into their approach, drivers, and best practices of data management.
The study, entitled Moving the Needle: Data Management for the Multi-Hybrid Age of IT, explains that 82% of the 670 senior technology decision makers recognise that investing in the right data management strategy will lead to better business outcomes.
But 73% admit that they have disparate and siloed data strategies that are stopping them from providing business stakeholders with the data they need.
As the study shows, with increased complexity, compounded by working across different IT environments, 64% of respondents are grappling with the challenge of managing a multi-hybrid infrastructure.
