10/10/24, 2:52 PM PRESSR: Red Hat survey: Centralising cloud management is top priority for UAE organisations — TradingView News
96% of IT managers surveyed said siloed teams pose challenges when

adopting cloud technologies, with 53% encountering this issue frequently.

Among those affected, the most common impacts on cloud strategy are:

● Inconsistent security and compliance across different providers

(cited by 54%)

● Increased costs (47%)

● Limited control and visibility over cloud resources (42%)

Readiness for AI

When asked about their ability to take advantage of the growing AI
opportunity, 40% of IT managers surveyed state that their organisation has

scalable, flexible and accessible IT platforms but lack the right skill sets to

fully harness AI’s potential. This compares to 25% that have the right

platforms and feel well-positioned to get the best value from them, and

35% who are in need of new platforms (22% of which are on a path to
acquire these).

With generative AI increasingly being explored by enterprises looking to
solve existing problems or seize new opportunities, the survey looked into

the importance of a range of factors in determining trust in an enterprise

model for generative AI. It found that the following all placed similarly

among respondents:

● Transparent, modifiable models with explainable sources (cited

by 89%)

● Proven performance and reliability in similar use cases (85%)

● Protection with model indemnification (84%)

● Compliance with data privacy and security standards (83%)
