As agencies increasingly migrate their workloads to the cloud, it is crucial to understand the implications and benefits of writing natively to the cloud, which enables organizations to optimize their data protection strategies, streamline operations, and enhance overall security.

“Writing natively” is about building, deploying and managing software apps in the cloud computing environment. Taking this approach makes it possible to leverage native cloud APIs and services for seamless integration and enhanced performance. It requires attention to cloud security, but it can also streamline meeting regulatory requirements and maintain data integrity.

Learning Objectives:

Review the benefits of creating cloud-native applications, such as scalability and flexibility, compared to adapting existing apps to run in a cloud environment
Identify best practices for securing data in the cloud and mitigating potential risks
Define metrics for evaluating the success of cloud-native apps
