Over the past two years, there has been a significant shift in the approach to conducting business in Polish companies. Enterprises are ready to embrace modern technologies and are increasingly bold in approaching the topic of digital transformation. It is predicted that in 2022, a strong correlation between business and IT will be noticeable.
Currently, in order for companies to remain competitive in the market, they should be open to technologies that not only effectively increase business value but also reduce investment costs. Cloud solutions are becoming increasingly popular, as indicated by data from the report “IT Investments towards the Development of Polish Companies in 2021-2022: Cloud and New Technologies”. 44 percent of respondents declare allocating expenses for this purpose between 10 and 50 percent of the IT budget, while a staggering 12 percent of respondents estimate investing in cloud services above 50 percent of the planned expenditures.
The growing technological debt
A major challenge for companies currently is outdated systems and technologies, which according to data from the Polcom report (65 percent of responses) are recognized as a factor that can hinder business development in 2022.
Currently, it is challenging to achieve success without emphasizing the importance of continuous exploration of technologies that reduce investment costs and increase business value. Cloud computing can contribute to changing the situation related to technological debt. In our survey, as many as 67 percent of respondents believe that cloud computing will be, or already is, the primary driver of IT technological changes – says Robert Czarniewski, CFO at Polcom.
The cloud as a driver of business transformation
Gartner’s forecasts indicate that spending on cloud solutions will reach as much as 12.5 percent of all IT expenditures in 2022, with the global cloud market being wv orth nearly half a trillion USD.
Companies will be seeking technological partners who can assist them in implementing the necessary changes to achieve their business goals. This includes increasing expenditures, particularly on infrastructure as a service, such as cloud computing. (…) In 2022, enterprises will increasingly embrace investments in solutions that support innovation and business flexibility, including time to market, productivity improvement, and remote work capabilities – emphasizes Robert Czarniewski.
