What Is Cloud Data Management?
Cloud data management is the implementation of cloud data management platforms and tools, policies, and procedures that give organizations control of their business data, both in the cloud and in hybrid setups where data is stored or sourced in a combination of on-premises and cloud applications.
The ever-growing list of cloud applications and tools being adopted by enterprises is leading to an exponential growth in data — whether structured, unstructured or semi-structured. Because this data is a critical asset for modern enterprises, managing it has become a strategic imperative, especially as the numbers of data users increase, the quantity and types of data increase, and the types of business processes evolve.
