We are happy to announce that AutoDeploy and Brightwork Research and Analysis have combined resources to provide a book about Google Cloud and Amazon Web Services.
This book will explain the benefits of leveraging AWS for SAP and Oracle environments. Historically SAP and Oracle environments have built their entire business model based upon on premises. They have been two of the most successful software vendors under the on-premises model. However, AWS, Google Cloud Platform, or GCP, are changing things very rapidly, allowing for the testing of software in a way that was not possible just a few years ago. AWS has the lead over all other cloud entities regarding size and growth. However, we predict that the Google Cloud will get closer to AWS in the future. Amazon and Google are competitors with one another, and as with most competition, the customer wins.
AWS and Google Cloud are changing the game for enterprise software. Gone are the days of waiting for infrastructure to be provisioned over days, weeks, or months. The core systems that run your business on premises, can scale to AWS or GCP rapidly and expand your existing software portfolio into untapped areas of value within your business.
A critical component of AWS and Google Cloud is the ability to move away from proprietary hardware. AWS and Google Cloud have amazing economies of scale in hardware and data center technology and management. How could a company put together a hardware setup that is competitive on price or flexibility with AWS/GCP? Those data centers have untold economies of scale. Computing technology has become a both ubiquitous and a utility. Your business can take advantage of AWS and GCP today.
