Should I leverage the cloud, too?
With all the benefits cloud offers it’s kind of a no-brainer to hop on the cloud bandwagon. But, before you take the leap, you need to do your research—which cloud model should you use, what apps and workflows should you move first and, how can you maximize performance and minimize risk?
