Companies pursuing cloud diversity often neglect cloud asset management (CAM), risking significant financial and operational consequences. Without CAM, unmanaged resources lead to unnoticed costs, significant waste, and insufficient resource tracking. This lack of oversight also compromises security, increasing vulnerabilities that can lead to data breaches, particularly in regulated industries. Prioritizing CAM can help mitigate these risks and ensure more effective use of cloud resources, ultimately aiding in achieving better overall cloud strategy outcomes.
Failing to recognize the need for CAM leads to additional problems. The financial aspect is the most paramount and urgent. Untracked and unmanaged resources such as idle virtual machines or overallocated storage accumulate costs that are often unnoticed until they appear on a bloated monthly statement.
By neglecting to address cloud asset management, companies risk incurring additional costs due to wasted resources, exposing themselves to security gaps, compliance issues, and inefficient operational processes.
