SHOW NOTES:
MAKING A MAJOR CHANGE IS ALWAYS DIFFICULT
Understanding the transition to cloud means understanding that almost everything about your technology stack and business stack will likely have to change, get re-invented, or built from scratch.
A BLUEPRINT FOR SUCCESS OR FAILURE THROUGH THE TRANSITION
- To build or to buy? Do you understand the scope of the problem, the velocity of change this creates,and how well you can actually execute?
- How do you acquire, and how do you manage internal conflict?
- What will the new technology stack look like? Are you using the same design principles? Are you using the same architects?
- How does this impact your business? What backstops (“cash cows”) does your business have to prop up the new business?
