Cloud vs in-house?

Don’t worry, in this episode of InspiRácia we won’t be speaking tech jargon! On the contrary! If you sometimes feel like you don’t understand IT folks, then you’re in the right place this time. Together with Bob Dohnal (founder of Revolgy) and Ladislav Lála (CIO of Prague Airport), we’ll have a clear and simple conversation about what the Cloud really is, the topic everyone’s talking about.

With a bit of exaggeration, you could say that in the future there will be only two types of companies: those that create technology and those that use technology. So every company will essentially be a tech company. And each will face the question of where to develop and operate their solutions — in the cloud or “in-house”?

During the live stream, you’ll also have the chance to ask our guests any questions you’re curious about. We’re looking forward to seeing you!

Why should you watch this episode and what will you take away?

• You’ll learn what cloud services are and what advantages or disadvantages they can bring to you and your company.
• You’ll understand how simple or complex, time-consuming or cost-intensive (or not), it is to migrate your existing company systems to the cloud.
• You’ll hear about the risks associated with the cloud and running systems in-house, helping you form an opinion on what’s more beneficial for you.
