5 New Years Resolutions To Achieve Business-Led AI Transformation with an Intelligent Cloud

Can you believe that 2024 is over and we are now in 2025? Time flies and unfortunately business priorities don’t abate with changes in time, season or year. Even if you recognize a fiscal rather than calendar year, it is always a good practice in the first week of a new year to reflect on the past 12 months and set a few New Year’s Resolutions to help you stay focused for what is to come.

A business-led AI data intelligence platform enables an Intelligent Cloud

Data is the new currency, and an enterprise data intelligence platform is the magic that turns data into usable information. To make that accessible and usable be the average (non-technical) business executive, the introduction of an intelligent cloud will fill the gap.

Put most simply, an intelligent cloud is a cloud computing model/platform that leverages to power of AI to enhance its capabilities. What was once a platform for pure application processing power and storage can now leverage new GenAI technologies to extend functionality into the realm of contextualized data ingestion, advanced omni-channel analytics and proactive/predictive engines to forecast future states based on variables correlated from both within as well as outside the enterprise.

While the promise of AI is still in its infancy, the value realized for specific use cases such as enhancing cloud operations are generating measurable results. But the true value of an intelligent cloud can only be realized by establishing a technology stack that not only creates new content but learns as it processes. This is where the marriage of GenAI with Reinforcement Learning steps in to deliver on the promise of an intelligent cloud.

5 New Years Resolutions to deliver on the promise of an intelligent cloud

As 2025 slams into reality and the need to stay competitive, productive and profitable becomes even more a priority, the impact of digital and AI transformation projects becomes priority one.

To that end, we would offer these 5 News Years Resolutions to deliver on the promise of an intelligent cloud:

1. Identify: Identify a cross functional team with representative stakeholders from business, technical and governance disciplines, then prioritize decision requirements that will most impact reporting and dashboard critical success factors
2. Connect: Target specific use cases and associated data sources inside and outside the enterprise along with access to business policies and regulatory requirements in selecting the cloud environment/platform
3. Enable: Leverage the power of no-code development for a new GenAI plus Reinforcement Learning-powered cloud ecosystem to deliver the foundation for your intelligent cloud platform
4. Empower: Everyone appropriate should be trained to satisfy their own information requests for realtime analytics all with the only requirement being the ability to ask a question and therefore freeing valuable data science resources to focus on bigger picture revolutionary change opportunities
5. Iterate: Understand that this is a process, not a project, delivering a true intelligent cloud will be an ongoing learning experience for both the human and machine elements of the solution to planning, execution, analysis, and improvement recognition iterated ad infinitum in order to avoid the challenges listed above

One final recommendation would be to select experienced partners who understand the nuances of an intelligent cloud adapted you your specific requirements with an eye to future enhancements that don’t require proprietary tools or resources.
