A Delicate Balancing Act: Maximizing Cloud Value from AWS | Blog

With cloud spending under scrutiny, generating the most value from AWS investments while still delivering the innovation enterprises demand is crucial. To achieve their goals through AWS, enterprises need to consider strategic alignment, cost optimization, technical implementation, organizational readiness, and continuous improvement. Learn the key questions stakeholders should ask when evaluating their AWS cloud strategy in this blog.

As AWS re:Invent 2023 rapidly nears, cautious optimism has replaced the blissful ignorance that once characterized enterprise cloud spending. Enterprises, for justifiable reasons, are scrutinizing every dollar allocated to the cloud, and cost optimization is leading conversations across the board.

This muted atmosphere has slowed AWS’ revenue growth in recent quarters, reflecting the broader enterprise cloud adoption slowdown. In the third quarter of 2023, AWS reported US$23.1 billion in revenue, up 12% year-on-year, but the growth rate was below the company’s typical historical increases in the mid-20 to low-30% range.

Despite these cloud spending challenges, Everest Group research shows that enterprises still understand the need to innovate and expand their operations through cloud-driven digital transformation. Amidst prevailing economic and geopolitical uncertainties, enterprises are seeking to innovate and grow by carefully evaluating their cloud strategy.

The duality of cautious spending sentiment and continuously evolving customer expectations facing digital businesses has brought AWS to a crucial juncture. As Amazon’s Chief Financial Officer Brian Olsavsky pointed out during the third quarter 2023 earnings call, this has put the division in “a delicate situation.” Let’s explore how AWS is managing this.

AWS helps enterprises differentiate through innovation and partnership

AWS continues to be the leading cloud service provider, with a strong record of innovation, a large and loyal customer base, and a vast and active developer community.

In our research, enterprises have highlighted these key AWS differentiations:

  • Continued investments in strengthening IaaS offerings: Since its inception, enterprises have chosen AWS IaaS offerings for their comprehensiveness and reliability across foundational infrastructure components such as compute, network, and storage. Its secure, scalable, and global infrastructure services, along with its comprehensive capacity management tools, have made it a strong enterprise choice. Additionally, AWS’ continued innovations in building next-gen silicon chips help it support enterprises with critical Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning (AI/ML) and high-performance computing (HPC) workloads
  • End-to-end data on cloud capabilities: With the renewed focus on data to drive AI’s future, enterprises are looking for data integration, governance, and analytics capabilities to address data privacy challenges, improve customer experience, and drive business growth. With offerings such as Amazon Aurora, DynamoDB, and RedShift, AWS dominates enterprise adoption trends for cloud-native data platforms and data analytics. Further, AWS has also become relevant for enterprises seeking to accurately address data regulation and compliance demands
  • Comprehensive partner ecosystem and AWS Marketplace popularity: The AWS partner ecosystem is a comprehensive and ever-evolving network of system integrators (SIs) and technology vendors. As a result of its strong partnerships with technology vendors and tiered classification of SIs, enterprises find AWS beneficial for identifying and enabling successful integrations across different platforms and tools through a tripartite engagement model. AWS also provides an alternate way to engage with multiple system integrators and independent software vendors (ISV) through its extremely popular AWS Marketplace to enable cost savings and procurement efficiencies, reduce licensing costs, and fulfill enterprise AWS commit

Enterprises need AWS to solve for transparency and empower cloud value

AWS’ revenue growth decline can be attributed to several factors, including the economic slowdown, cloud computing market maturation, and increased cloud provider competition.

Enterprises have highlighted the following challenges in their AWS engagements:

  • Commitment to consumption gap: Enterprises continue to get caught in the vicious cycle of overcommitment and underutilization. This has led to a significant waste of money and has made it difficult for enterprises to control cloud costs
  • Complex contracts and commercials: Enterprises have often struggled with inflexible AWS cost structures with complex caveats that lead to potential budget overruns
  • Cost management and visibility concerns: AWS’ current cost optimization offerings do not completely offer a solution for inefficient resource allocation and underutilization. This creates strong concerns about return on investments (RoI) among enterprises
  • Standalone professional services: AWS ProServe teams lack cohesiveness with SI teams during collaborative engagements, preventing enterprises from realizing the maximum potential value. This disconnect has led to inefficiencies, delays, and communication breakdowns, ultimately hindering project objectives

In addition to the above challenges, enterprises have underscored common cloud service provider challenges around integrating with legacy systems, talent shortage, vendor lock-in, and offerings complexity.

Deriving the desired value from AWS requires careful enterprise planning

Enterprises must adopt a right-fit approach for cloud engagements and workloads present on AWS. Choosing a strategic cloud service provider by mapping key business and technical requirements with the strengths of various providers is highly likely to prevail as the next differentiating factor for mature enterprises in the future.

To develop a clear understanding of how AWS can help them achieve their goals, enterprises need to consider strategic alignment, cost optimization, technical implementation, organizational readiness, and continuous improvement.

For instance, enterprise stakeholders considering how AWS can help achieve the desired value from generative AI (Gen AI) should ask:

Strategic alignment:

  • How do AWS’ Gen AI capabilities align with the overall IT strategy and business goals?
  • How can AWS’ Gen AI services help achieve desired outcomes such as increased automation, improved decision-making, or enhanced customer experiences?

Cost optimization:

  • How can the cost of Gen AI workloads on AWS be effectively managed?
  • What are the different pricing models for AWS services related to AI and Gen AI, such as Amazon Bedrock, Amazon SageMaker, Amazon Rekognition, and Amazon Comprehend?

Technical implementation:

  • What is the optimal approach to deploy and manage Gen AI models on AWS?
  • How can the security and compliance of Gen AI applications be ensured on AWS?
  • How can AI and Gen AI applications be integrated with other AWS services such as Amazon S3, Amazon DynamoDB, and Amazon CloudWatch?

Organizational readiness:

  • What skills and training are required to develop, deploy, and manage Gen AI applications on AWS?
  • How can clear governance policies and guidelines for Gen AI usage on AWS be established?

Continuous improvement:

  • What is the best method to continuously monitor, evaluate, and refine the performance of AWS Gen AI workloads?
  • How can the ROI in AWS’ Gen AI solutions be maximized?

By addressing these specific questions, enterprises can comprehensively understand how AWS can empower them to achieve their strategic objectives, optimize their cloud investments, and derive the most value from AWS.

Israel-Hamas War Could Affect Tech Industry in Middle East | In the News

The war between Israel and the Palestinian militant group Hamas has affected the Israeli tech sector, as the reservist call-up has reduced staff at tech startups. For now, the war’s effect on the tech industry is limited, but that could change if the conflict broadens.

While the tech sectors in Israel and the Palestinian territories are experiencing the effects of the war, the tech sector impact could become much larger should other regions get involved, said Yugal Joshi, Partner at Everest Group. If the war “does blow up into something bigger, frankly, all bets are off,” he said.

Examining the Impact of the Israel-Hamas Conflict on Cybersecurity Innovation | Blog

The Israel-Hamas war has immediately increased cyberattacks, depleted technology provider resources, and postponed venture capital funding. While novel cybersecurity products from Israeli startups will face temporary setbacks, the situation may foster future cybersecurity innovation. Read on to explore the impact of this conflict on Israel’s cybersecurity firms, technology providers, enterprises, and venture capitalists.

Reach out to discuss further.

Israel’s cybersecurity innovation under attack

A powerhouse of cybersecurity innovation, Israel has nurtured a rich startup ecosystem that has skyrocketed to global fame. Companies like Orca, Imperva, CyberArk, Radware, SentinelOne, Wiz, and Snyk have broadened their wings to the US but maintain deep-rooted connections to Israel. Many cutting-edge cybersecurity solutions have emerged from Israel’s robust research and development (R&D) and product engineering foundation.

Let’s delve into how the ongoing conflict is impacting various areas:

  • Israeli technology providers

The conflict has reverberated across Israel’s tech landscape. The mobilization of reserve troops, many of whom play integral roles in cybersecurity companies, has created an immediate resource gap. Israel Defense Forces (IDF) veterans who established many of these startups have been deployed to the battlefield. The sudden staffing shift has caused internal R&D and engineering delays, hampering cybersecurity innovation and project timelines.

Looking ahead, the ramifications could manifest more significantly. The ongoing challenges may lead companies to strategically reshuffle and geographically diversify critical R&D endeavors to avert future disruptions.

This resource shift can have long-lasting impacts on global technology conglomerates that have deeply ingrained partnerships with Israeli cybersecurity startups.

The mobilization of Israeli cybersecurity specialists has created an expertise shortage likely to have a ripple effect, causing short-term disruptions in international alliances and collaborations. Consequently, global tech providers may face challenges in maintaining the innovation charter in cybersecurity solutions as their niche Israeli partners grapple with a temporary resource crunch due to the war.

In the long term, the heightened conflict could catalyze cybersecurity innovation, fueling the development of novel solutions tailored to an evolving threat landscape.

  • Broader impacts

The conflict has had repercussions in the digital domain. Recent cyber incursions targeting Israel’s missile alert systems and media outlets are mere precursors to potentially broader cyber warfare. The looming threat of escalated cyberattacks menacing critical infrastructures such as power grids, oil and gas installations, and telecommunication networks is palpable.

With its robust cybersecurity infrastructure, Israel stands well-poised to thwart these cyber forays. Yet, maintaining unwavering vigilance coupled with a strong response and recovery strategy is imperative to safeguard both national interests and ensure uninterrupted business operations.

  • IT service providers

Indian IT firms have limited exposure in Israel, which accounts for less than 1% of their revenue base. Nevertheless, even though these firms have a solid foundation due to offshore operational bases, the IT security services continuum is still vulnerable to the unfolding scenario.

A noticeable delay in the rollout of novel cybersecurity products from Israeli startups is anticipated, stemming from the reduced engineering and R&D workforce. As a result, service providers entrenched in the Israeli startup ecosystem aiming to drive innovation with clients stand to be the most impacted.

  • Venture capitalists

The venture capital ecosystem has been disrupted by the conflict with a few early-stage companies from Israel recently postponing funding announcements. Merlin Ventures, a US-based firm that invests primarily in Tel Aviv security startups, canceled its planned Israeli Cyber Showcase. We believe the war will not only slow new cybersecurity product development in the short term but also cause venture capital funds to divert attention to other geographies.

The outlook

The Israel-Hamas war highlights a complex scenario that arises when geopolitical discord and cybersecurity intersect. This situation has quickly elevated cyber threats and strained technology resources. However, in the longer term, it could lead to a new chapter in cybersecurity innovation to thwart the increased threats emerging from this conflict.

Insights on Challenges and Opportunities from Oracle CloudWorld and the Oracle Health Conference | Blog

At last week’s Oracle CloudWorld and the Oracle Health Conference in Las Vegas, the company presented its new positioning, which includes leveraging its broad portfolio, making the next move in healthcare, and delivering lower-cost cloud technology. However, Oracle faces challenges such as not dominating any market, opaque pricing strategies, and the loss of competitive edge to a healthcare rival. Read insights from our analyst who attended these events about the company’s path forward.  

Company leaders presented their vision for Oracle’s future, which is focused on the following three important areas:

  • Breadth and depth of offerings – The company offers a full portfolio in cloud, Generative Artificial Intelligence (GAI), Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), Human Capital Management (HCM), Customer Experience (CX), Enterprise Data Management (EDM) and healthcare to name a few
  • Big bang positioning in healthcare – With its acquisition of Cerner, Oracle is placing a huge growth bet in this segment, like all tech players. The company talked about new opportunities in this area at the Oracle Health Conference
  • Better cloud economics – While industry analysts previously called Oracle out for elasticity, security, and performance issues, it has moved to best-in-class in these areas

Let’s explore each of the elements of their strategy and the challenges they present:

  1. Master of none: There’s no doubt about Oracle’s breadth and depth of coverage. Oracle has credible offerings for each area it competes with AWS, Salesforce, or Microsoft, whose market messaging in certain instances is ahead of product maturity in areas such as healthcare and CX. However, this is not enough.

Oracle’s biggest challenge is that it lacks dominance in any one area. It is not the undisputed preferred choice in any of the markets it claims leadership in. Below are the leaders in market share or positioning in each of the segments where Oracle competes:

    • Generative AI: Microsoft
    • Cloud: AWS/Azure
    • ERP: Oracle (in the US) but head-to-head with SAP everywhere else
    • HCM: Workday
    • CX: Adobe
    • Enterprise Data: Snowflake/AWS

Oracle needs to double down and succeed on select growth bets that will help it reinvent its brand. ERP or databases cannot be those bets.

  1. Not Epic: At one point, the Epic and Cerner competition appeared to be headed toward a true duopoly. However, Epic has gained a significant advantage over competitors by taking aggressive actions on two fronts: swiftly moving to modern architecture by working with the cloud ecosystem and grabbing market share from tier-2 EMRs such as Athenahealth, Meditech, and Allscripts.

Cerner, with Oracle’s strong backing, should have stolen a march over Epic on both. Instead, Cerner was distracted by the integration with Oracle and lost considerable ground. Hence, instead of a duopoly, what we have is a market where you are either Epic or Not Epic.

  1. Opaqonomics: Oracle pitched they are “significantly cheaper than AWS or Google.” However, this claim cannot be consistently validated. While some enterprise clients indicate that Oracle Cloud is more affordable, others feel it isn’t. The difficulties lie in the following:
    • Oracle cloud economics is incorporated with its app economics, making it very difficult to separate the two
    • Pricing is not transparent or standardized. Inconsistent client feedback (some who feel it is cheap, others who don’t) impacts Oracle’s competitive positioning against other clouds
    • This inconsistency is also visible in client experience. One client mentioned it took Oracle CIoud Infrastructure (OCI) “six weeks to provision additional compute when on paper, the promise of cloud is to do it over six seconds.”

While this might sound like a harsh takedown of Oracle’s positioning, these issues can be fixed and serve as critical paths to Oracle’s reinvention. Oracle is a true engineering firm, and each capability that it delivers has an engine under its hood. Clients can trust Oracle to provide fully developed products. To restore its shine, Oracle needs to bring the same rigor to its customer success initiatives, master a few key markets, and establish transparent and standardized pricing.
