1011- 1011- Veritas and SCC

It may historically have only served as a simple extension to data storage for organisations, but cloud technology now brings with it, an endless potential in terms of the functionality it can offer to modern businesses. Recent quantitative research conducted by Vanson Bourne with UK and Ireland IT decision makers confirmed that financial institutions clearly recognise the various use-cases that cloud deployments can provide. However, this growing implementation of cloud is not without its challenges, especially in the context of a post pandemic world. In this session, we look at the key findings of the research. We will openly discuss the data management challenges facing the financial sector and how organisations are overcoming them.
