Summary

As infrastructure and operations (I&O) leaders consider the next stage in their cloud evolution, Forrester recommends three key measurement and comparison practices: 1) Benchmark cloud adoption against peers; 2) develop a Balanced Scorecard to track project success; and 3) complete a maturity assessment to understand an optimized cloud strategy. This report focuses on this third category of comparison. A relentless program of reassessment identifies targets for specific improvement to continuously improve your cloud value to customers. This is an update of a previously published report; Forrester reviews and revises it periodically for continued relevance and accuracy. We're now updating it with the latest version of our cloud maturity assessment.
