SolarWinds recently released the 2017 IT Trends Report: Portrait of a Hybrid IT Organization, which highlights the current trends in IT from the perspective of IT professionals. The full details of the report, as well as recommendations for hybrid IT success, can be found at it-trends.solarwinds.com.
The findings are based on a survey fielded in December 2016. It yielded responses from 205 IT practitioners, managers, and directors in the U.S. and Canada from public and private-sector small, mid-size, and enterprise companies that leverage cloud-based services for at least some of their IT infrastructure. The results of the survey illustrate what a modern hybrid IT organization looks like, and shows cost benefits of the cloud, as well as the struggle to balance shifting job and skill dynamics.
The following are some key takeaways from the 2017 IT Trends Report:
Cloud and hybrid IT are a reality for many organizations today. They have created a new era of work that is more global, interconnected, and flexible than ever. At the same time, the benefits of hybrid IT introduce greater complexity and technology abstraction. IT professionals are tasked with devising new and creative methods to monitor and manage these services, as well as prepare their organizations and themselves for continued technology advancements.
