Drive Growth and Innovation Through Cloud and Infrastructure Readiness

Drive Growth and Innovation Through Cloud and Infrastructure Readiness

Netflix, Home Depot, Siemens, and Spotify all have something in common – they’ve built cloud readiness into their DNA. McKinsey research shows cloud adopters launch products 20–40% faster than their peers, and studies have linked cloud maturity to up to 6.9% higher revenue growth.

From real-time global scalability to AI-powered research and discoveries, the cloud is powering next-gen innovation – but only for those prepared to harness it.

So, what is cloud readiness really?

It’s more than just the ability to migrate to the cloud. It’s about whether your teams, tooling, and architectures are prepared to:

  • Respond to market changes with agility

  • Adopt newer technologies fast

  • Scale efficiently, without breaking the bank

  • Operate securely and globally

And, how do you get there?

You deliberately build it! Cloud readiness is achieved by aligning people, platforms, and processes across key areas:

  • Automation & IaC for fast, error-free deployments

  • FinOps for real-time cost visibility and accountability

  • DevOps & CI/CD for rapid, safe software delivery

  • Modern architectures like microservices and containers

  • Security-first design practices

  • Multi-cloud strategies to stay agile and compliant

If your cloud isn’t accelerating innovation, it may be time to rethink your readiness strategy.

In our full blog, we explore:

  • What cloud-ready orgs do differently vs. legacy-bound ones

  • Real-world stories from Netflix, Home Depot, Siemens & more

  • Key readiness enablers across tech stack and team practices

  • Tools and platforms like emma that simplify and accelerate readiness through unified control, automation, cost optimization, and security.

In other words, cloud readiness is business readiness. Being cloud ready will transform your cloud from a cost center to a growth engine.
