PodChats for FutureCIO: Data strategies for the AI-native enterprise

August 14, 2024 • CXOCIETY | FutureCIO FutureCFO FutureIoT • Season 5

IDC predicts by 2025, the cloud will surpass on-premises infrastructure as the primary location where operational data is stored, managed, and analysed for 65% of A2000 organisations.

The rapid growth of data and the increasing complexity of managing it in the age of AI and hybrid cloud environments present significant challenges for organisations. As AI adoption accelerates, enterprises must rethink their data storage, management, and processing strategies to support performance-intensive workloads like generative AI.

Faced with mounting pressures to support growth and profitability, how should CIOs architect their IT strategy so that it is able to adapt to changing market conditions, nearly unpredictable technology innovations, and yet to be ironed out regulations around data privacy, security and ethical practices?

In this PodChats for FutureCIO, we are joined by Matthew Hardman, APAC chief technology officer for Hitachi Vantara, to share with us his views on crafting meaningful data strategies for the AI-native enterprise.
