Digital vs IT
The document discusses the differences between traditional and digital IT, as well as the current state of cloud adoption. Traditional IT focuses on maintaining the status quo and fulfilling demands through ongoing costs, while digital IT aims to transform businesses through upfront capital costs and generating new demands. Today, cloud adoption has moved IT between horizontal and vertical structures, with many businesses now taking a cloud-centric approach to gain flexibility, scale, and reduce ongoing costs, though some still rely on on-premise IT due to concerns over expenses and functionality. The key message is that cloud adoption follows a similar pattern to the double helix model, shifting focus between traditional and transformative approaches.
