Leaders Roundtable: Hybrid by Design-Creating Consistent Workload Experiences


Organisations aim to be customer-focused, innovative, and agile, relying on real-time, seamless data access.

Hybrid cloud is pivotal in this business requirement, allowing flexible hosting of infrastructure, apps, and workloads across public, on-premises, and private environments based on business needs.

However, many organisations find that their hybrid cloud adoption lacks a clear strategy, leading to a fragmented and inefficient hybrid cloud and data environment, that fails to deliver the desired outcomes.

Ecosystm research shows that in organisations in Malaysia:

  • 51% lead their tech strategy with infrastructure modernisation which includes re-defining their cloud strategy.
  • 58% have a hybrid, multi-cloud approach.
  • 51% intend to increase investments in hybrid cloud management in 2024.

There are multiple aspects to consider as organisations transition to hybrid multi-cloud: building the right cloud architecture; integrating security and resiliency; defining management models; determining which workloads are right for public cloud or private cloud; cloud migration; a suitable FinOps framework that balances performance, cost, and integration; the ability to report and reduce carbon footprint; and, most importantly, managing the workloads and environment in a single pane of glass.

Join us and your industry peers to share best practices on how to design a ‘hybrid by design’ cloud strategy.

During the discussion we will touch on the following points:

  • The best practices to determine the workloads suitable for public cloud
  • Ways to ensure that workload experiences are ‘cloud-like’ irrespective of where they are hosted
  • The growing importance of a FinOps model that works for your organisation

Leaders Roundtable: Sustainability-Technology as the Catalyst for Enhanced Business Value


We’ve concluded another successful event! Thanks to everyone for their Valuable contributions.

->Click here to explore hightlights and key takeaways from this Roundtable session.


Organisations in Thailand are responding to the rising expectations for sustainability actions from customers, investors, and employees.

This has seen sustainability emerge as a strategic imperative that has the attention of the C-suite. However, we find that many organisations are lagging in achieving their sustainability goals.

Key barriers include the inability to fully leverage technology. Cloud has been a good accelerator, but sustainable IT goes beyond moving all your workloads to cloud. There is still much work needed on the basics, such as accessing accurate data, integrating data, aligning with various reporting demands, and reducing existing carbon-intensive infrastructures. Accelerating sustainability journeys will require organisations to get the fundamentals right and leverage data.

Ecosystm research finds that:

  • 89% of organisations in Thailand have sustainability as one of their business priorities
  • 67% of organisations in Southeast Asia place a high importance on technology driving sustainability measures; yet only 25% feel that they are leveraging technology fully
  • Technology modernisation is the first step towards sustainable IT – with nearly 60% exploring assessing subscription-based on-premises solutions, or increasing investments in cloud

Join us and your industry peers to share best practices on how to use sustainability as a catalyst for your organisation’s tech transformation journey.

During the discussion we will touch on the following points:

  • How data can be processed more sustainably while meeting sovereignty, governance, and compliance needs
  • Leverage hybrid capabilities for future cloud and IT organisational opportunities in 2024
  • Ways to manage edge-to-cloud on one sustainable economic unit
  • The growing importance of tracking the energy consumption and utlisation of every tech component and service

Leaders Roundtable: 50 Shades of Cloud: Defining a Hybrid Framework that Supports Your Business Needs

All organisations today aim to be customer-focused, innovative, and agile enterprises, that are empowered by real-time and seamless data access.

Cloud is at the heart of this transformation – and organisations increasingly look to host infrastructure, apps, and workloads where it makes most business sense, whether public, on-prem, private or hybrid.

Ecosystm research shows that in Australia:

  • 52% of organisations are evolving their IT operations including changes to their cloud strategy.
  • 39% of organisations have a hybrid, multi-cloud approach.
  • Yet, organisations do not pay enough attention to hybrid cloud management, with only 18% of organisations increasing investments in 2023.

There are multiple aspects to consider as organisations transition to hybrid multi-cloud: building the right cloud architecture; integrating security and resiliency; defining management models; determining which workloads are right for public cloud or private cloud; cloud migration; a suitable FinOps framework that balances performance, cost, and integration; the ability to report and reduce carbon footprint; and, most importantly, managing the workloads and environment in a single pane of glass.

Join us and your industry peers to share best practices on how to define the right ‘shade’ of hybrid cloud. During the discussion we will touch on the following points:

  • Taking full advantage of hybrid & multi-cloud environments
  • Ensuring manageability through onshore-offshore support frameworks
  • Defining the business cases for internal business stakeholder
  • Building Resiliency across a hybrid cloud environment

Leaders Roundtable: Do Your Tech Initiatives Support Your Sustainability Goals? A Reality Check

Executives across industries are responding to increased demands for transparency and action on sustainability goals. Investors, customers, regulators, employees, and communities are demanding action on Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) concerns.

With benefits such as improvements in customer acquisition, talent retention, brand equity and improved risk management, there are strong incentives for executives to focus on the right drivers for sustainability goals.  However, Ecosystm research shows that while sustainability is a key focus for 61% of Asia Pacific organisations, only 23% feel they have a clearly defined strategy.

A combination of regulatory pressures, and increased demand from our customers, communities, investors, and supply chains is driving a real urgency for action towards achieving sustainability goals.

Join us and your industry peers to find out more about an Ecosystm study on how leading organisations bring their sustainability strategies to life by putting in place the data, systems, reporting processes, and metrics to ensure they can clearly articulate their progress.

During this session we will discuss:

  • The key drivers for sustainability and the biggest business and technology challenges
  • How organisations are evolving their governance, culture, and people strategy
  • What technologies are companies investing in or augmenting, to support the increased need for data and reporting
  • How organisations are evolving roles and accountabilities for non-financial reporting

Leaders Roundtable: Shift Your Data Strategy from “Cloud-first” to “Data-first”

All organisations today operate as distributed enterprises.

If you are challenged by building the right architecture; integrating security and resiliency; defining management models; and managing the workloads and environment in a single pane of glass – you are not alone. And managing your technology environment is not even your key priority – you have been tasked with empowering a data-driven, digital enterprise, with seamless, real-time data access at the core of the business and technology strategy.

It is likely that your organisation has increased investments in cloud, data & AI solutions over the last few years. However, do you have a robust and futureproof data strategy?

Ecosystm research finds that in Australia:

  • 60% of organisations are concerned about cloud security; 46% worry about data residency regulations when adopting cloud.
  • 52% of organisations consider remote working a major threat to their corporate data.
  • 79% of organisations feel there is a lack of data governance and limited understanding of the risks involved.

Join us for a discussion on what you should be focusing on, as you are tasked with building the right data infrastructure to shape your organisation’s business goals.

The discussion will cover:

  • The importance and challenges of moving from “Cloud First” to “Data First”
  • How to maintain control of the data environment despite the consistent sprawl
  • The role of Governance in building a data-resilient organisation
