• Vodafone Business has partnered with VMware by Broadcom to provide adaptable end-to-end cloud, connectivity and security services tailored to your business needs.

The impact of cloud technologies

Less than a quarter of a century since modern cloud infrastructure emerged, 64% of business executives say cloud technologies now positively impact their profitability.*

Cloud performance, including fast response times, minimising latency and jitter, and eradicating packet loss, is now crucial to the success of many modern businesses – and a hybrid cloud solution is growing in popularity as the cloud setup of choice.


In the digital age, speed matters

If your business frequently experiences unplanned downtime and reduced access to data due to issues such as unreliable connectivity or poor fulfilment, then you may find value in adopting a strong hybrid cloud foundation. After all, your applications and websites are how your customers interact with your product or service.

Many businesses moved to the cloud from a legacy on-premises computing system only to be faced with unexpected dips in website performance, due to a cloud network that was not fit for purpose or scoped adequately.

This could negatively impact customer experience – a big deal when almost half (47%) of users won’t wait longer than two seconds for a website to load. The pressure is on to ensure your pages load quickly – or risk losing visitors.**

Enjoy a higher level of cloud computing performance

Leading cloud technology, connectivity and infrastructure capacity can be combined to optimise performance across the areas that really matter to your business – all while helping to safeguard business-critical applications at busy times.

According to Aberdeen Strategy and Research, improving network connectivity is a top strategy among business leaders implementing hybrid cloud technology, as they understand that the most critical element of any infrastructure is how it’s connected.***

This enables better performance, end-user experience, and key cyber security capabilities such as zero trust and SASE. The best applications, services, and data are useless if employees and customers can’t access them reliably, quickly and securely.

Choosing a technology partner that helps you select and access the right cloud technology - coupled with resilient connectivity - helps to guarantee that your business has the power and performance needed to meet your customers' demands.
