The Role of Cloud Computing in Digital Transformation Strategy
Keywords:
Data Management, Customer Experience, Competitive AdvantageAbstract
Cloud computing has emerged as a pivotal technology in the landscape of digital transformation, offering unparalleled flexibility, scalability, and cost-efficiency. This paper explores the integral role of cloud computing in shaping and executing digital transformation strategies across various industries. By examining case studies and empirical data, we demonstrate how cloud solutions enable organizations to enhance operational efficiency, foster innovation, and maintain competitive advantage. Key areas of focus include cloud infrastructure, data management, and security considerations, as well as the impact of cloud computing on organizational agility and customer experience. The findings suggest that a well-implemented cloud strategy is critical for achieving successful digital transformation and sustaining long-term business growth.
