Do you need to add value to your business? Adopting various technologies is a must.
León, Guanajuato.- Generating greater business value is the goal of adopting information and communications technologies (ICT).
These tools, devices, and systems enable the creation, storage, processing, transmission, and management of information in the cloud.
César González , IT Governance Director at Cloudgenia, explained that the adoption of information technologies makes the company's technology and infrastructure more cost-effective.
He explained that companies that don't upload their information to the cloud consider cost a barrier, "information technology is seen as an expense, not an investment."
He acknowledged that the lack of clear metrics is a disadvantage; it competes with areas that generate tangible profitability, such as sales, where revenue can be measured.
The financial department doesn't understand, we need to make them understand that this benefit allows for generating more value for the business."
In the cloud, you no longer need to request equipment to add memory or processors. But there must be someone responsible for monitoring usage to measure costs.
The specialist highlighted that applying best practices can generate savings of 30%. SMEs that implement FinOps (Financial Operations) reduce their annual cloud spending by 31%.
Security is a point that must be addressed; if the service is not protected, traffic may be intentionally generated, and this incurs costs.
Juan José Barón, Digital Marketing Manager at Cloudgenia, said they specialize in digital transformation through cloud solutions.
He shared the experience of a footwear company they advised, and they discovered that the client's investment in a server, compared to its actual capacity, didn't exceed 15%. They can leverage this type of analysis; it's cash flow, he stated.
The specialists participated in the webinar "FinOps Strategies and Keys to Saving by Migrating to the Cloud," organized by the Employers' Confederation of the Mexican Republic (Coparmex) Metropolitan Zone of León.
