Multi-Cloud Fundamental to Financial Services Transformation

A Black & White paper is a study based on primary research survey data that assesses the market dynamics of a key enterprise technology segment through the lens of the “on the ground” experience.

Faced with a market transforming at the hands of new, cloud-native competitors, financial services businesses are actively engaging in their own transformation. They are adopting and integrating multiple cloud platforms and seeking to derive business value directly from emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), blockchain and container-based application architectures. The next few years will be a critical time during which market leaders will succeed in establishing a unified base of new technologies from which to operate.

A Black & White Paper is a study based on primary research survey data that assesses the market dynamics of a key enterprise technology segment through the lens of the ‘on the ground’ experience and opinions of real practitioners. Throughout this Black & White Paper, we cite various data sources from 451’s Voice of the Enterprise service, which combines industry-leading analysis with insights from our extensive community of mid-level and senior IT and line-of-business professionals. It draws on surveys of pre-qualified IT decision-makers based mainly in North America and Europe who have a detailed knowledge of their organisation’s cloud strategy.

To identify trends specific to the financial services market, businesses in that category were segmented and compared against the total survey sample, which includes businesses across a variety of vertical market categories.
