The report found that only 33% of executives are \u201cvery confident\u201d in their ability to operate in a public cloud environment, an increase from 2022 when only 21% reported feeling very confident.<br \/>\n\u201cCloud operations is critical to realizing the benefits of cloud for infrastructure and applications,\u201d said Haiyan Song, Executive Vice President and General Manager, CloudOps at NetApp. \u201cThis research demonstrates that although organizations face challenges in their cloud operations, they also recognize the importance of investments in areas including automation and FinOps to overcome those challenges.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Key Findings from Spot by NetApp\u2019s 2023 State of CloudOps Report<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cloud operations remain a struggle for IT teams<\/strong><br \/>\n\u2022 64% of IT decision makers continue to see security and compliance as the top cloud operations challenge, followed by cost management, which was cited as the top challenge by 60% of respondents.<br \/>\n\u2022 The biggest areas of focus for improving cloud operations continue to be cost management and security, according to 66% of technology executives.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Automation is the key to success in cloud operations<\/strong><br \/>\n\u2022 The survey reveals that 82% of respondents believe that cloud automation is critical for optimizing cloud operations and ROI.<br \/>\n\u2022 95% of respondents have already incorporated some automation in their cloud operations and 88% plan to increase cloud operations automation in 2023.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Enterprise teams are embracing FinOps<\/strong><br \/>\n\u2022 Despite a majority of tech executives (96%) agreeing that FinOps is important to their cloud strategy, only 9% have a mature FinOps practice. These numbers remain fairly consistent with findings from the 2022 survey.<br \/>\n\u2022 The biggest FinOps challenges include reducing cloud costs (50%) and forecasting cloud spend (47%). Only 19% of respondents reported that they have been able to make the most of discounted cloud purchase options.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSpot by NetApp\u2019s 2023 State of CloudOps report is interesting because it shows that cloud cost management is not just a standalone process, but one that is inextricably linked with resource management, compliance, and security\u201d, said Hyoun Park, Chief Analyst at Amalgam Insights. \u201cOne cannot simply look at cloud costs in a vacuum without advocating for holistic cloud management. As companies seek to manage cloud costs, the sheer volume and variety of cloud cost service components leads companies to automate as they fully optimize and rationalize cloud resources to match business needs.\u201d<br \/>\nAs organizations continue to embrace the public cloud, Spot by NetApp enables them to improve and automate their cloud operations &#8211; helping control costs, improve security, optimize resources, and provide superior services across cloud environments.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Methodology<\/strong><br \/>\nThe 2023 State of CloudOps report, sponsored by Spot by NetApp and conducted by Dimensional Research, examines the current state of CloudOps for large enterprise teams, primarily focusing on operational activities, staffing and expertise, automation, and FinOps.
