Business adoption of the cloud has risen sharply in recent years, with industry analyst Gartner confidently predicting the cloud to become a $300 billion industry by 2021.[i] Technology has risen to match this adoption rate in turn and it is now commonplace for organisations across all sectors to implement a cloud-first approach – or even cloud-only.
The report makes the case for a multi-cloud hybrid digital infrastructure and the inherent benefits this offers to agribusinesses, including:
Despite these benefits, the report offers some words of warning: namely that without a clear business strategy – and the right tools and services to implement that strategy – data risks becoming siloed and unable to deliver on its full intrinsic value.
Jeff Bradshaw, CTO of Proagrica comments further: "The cloud is delivering functionality that can greatly benefit the operations of agribusinesses across the supply chain. It's important to remember that the cloud isn't just one 'thing' but a complex array of various services and platforms. The cloud is ultimately a tool, not a destination – what's essential for agribusinesses is to utilize the cloud in a way that achieves greater collaboration, seamless working, and derives greater value from your collected data. This combination is what will truly drive productivity and growth."
