Overview of Cloud Transformation Drivers

Identifying the drivers of cloud transformation is the prerequisite for formulating strategies. You need to analyze internal and external factors.

• Internal factors include business growth requirements, cost optimization requirements, operational efficiency improvement, and business innovation requirements.
• External factors include market competition pressure, customer requirement changes, technology development trends, and regulatory compliance requirements.

Taking both internal and external factors into account, cloud transformation drivers can be categorized into business drivers, technical drivers, and financial drivers. These categories align with the perspectives of the CEO, CIO, and CFO, respectively.
