Description du livre
In
this book, leading CEOs, CIOs and experts from international corporations
explore the role of digitalization and cloud-based processes as the main
business drivers of the 21st century. Focusing on how to get started with
digitalization and how to handle the technologies involved, they employ
analyses and practical case studies to demonstrate how to unleash the potential
offered by the cloud, and how to achieve the most critical success factors –
quality and security – through the right partnerships. Readers will discover
why the cloud will soon take over the driver’s seat in cars, and why Heineken
CIO Anne Teague claims that innovation is impossible without high-quality IT.
The book reveals what IT managers can learn from Silicon Valley and China
today, and why Deutsche Telekom CEO Tim Hoettges believes Europe’s future
depends on successful digitalization. In a closing strategic assessment, the
editor Ferri Abolhassan presents the cloud as the essential backbone of
digitalization. In short, the book provides readers the first comprehensive,
high-level assessment of cloud-based digital transformation in the era of
Industry 4.0.
