Staying On-Premise or Going to the Cloud

Staying On-Premise or going to the cloud: how to make your decision?

A key question that many Utilities are currently asking themselves is whether they want to stay On-Premise or go with a CIS application vendor’s Cloud offering.

Until just a couple of years ago, this decision wasn’t top of mind for most Utilities. But since then, many CIS applications have been offered through different deployment models, such as Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS), and Software-as-a-Service (SaaS).

CIS projects are a considerable investment in time, money, and effort. Using best practices, industry knowledge, and insights will set you up for success, save you time and money during your process, and reduce your risk by using insights and learnings of others in the Utility industry.

What factors are influencing Utilities to move their CIS solutions from on-premise to the cloud?

The below Kaihen whitepaper and webinar both provide insights on the key aspects to consider when planning a CIS replacement.
