Putting the Spotlight on Cloud: IT Solutions company Yondu shares how Cloud is changing the tech industry

Cloud services have grown to be more relevant in the Philippines over the years, and it’s easy to see why. Small businesses, large enterprises, and government bodies across the country have recognized the various benefits that Cloud can bring. According to a 2017 Microsoft Asia Digital Transformation Survey, 84% of Philippine business leaders saw cloud services as essential in their company’s digital transformation. The same survey showed that a majority of Philippine business leaders believe that cloud services make digital transformation more affordable for companies, regardless of the company’s size. 

2017 also saw the launch of Government Cloud (GovCloud), a cloud infrastructure that provides various services for government agencies and offices. It aims to provide a complete cloud solution, helping the government reduce costs and have more efficient processes.
