5. Your company can easily operate in a dynamic environment because it has a robust and flexible ICT system.

The New World of Work and the cloud

‘The cloud’ is often mentioned in the same breath as The New World of Work (TNWW). As if one can not exist without the other. Where TNWW actually is about a new approach to work processes, ‘the cloud’ is about organising ICT in a new way. The advantage of the cloud is that ICT infrastructure and applications are made accessible, as a service, via the internet in a unified manner.

There lies the crux: you are 100% dependent on the availability and stability of your internet connection(s). You know how annoying it is when you can not use your e-mail. Imagine when you are dependant on your internet connection for everything… However attractive the cloud solution seems, for the time being it is not a wise decision to put all your bets on this. Fortunately, there is the ‘Private Cloud’: a hybrid solution that will make your ICT services available within your own company and, provided there is a working internet connection, even outside of your company. This enables business-critical operations to continue, even when the internet is not available for a while.
