Rearchitecting for the future: Why private and sovereign clouds lead in the AI era

When I meet CIOs across industries, one theme consistently rises to the surface: trust is now the true differentiator. Cloud and agentic AI are inseparable, but success no longer depends just on speed or scale. It depends on whether stakeholders - customers, business leaders and boards - trust how you manage data, govern AI agents and safeguard operations.

How agentic AI transforms cloud - with humans at the helm

Ten years ago, cloud moved from a promising concept to a proven business enabler. For CIOs, it delivered three critical advantages: speed to market, the ability to scale operations on demand and the ability to keep services running reliably. These capabilities reshaped how they invested in technology, transforming IT from a cost center into a driver of growth and innovation.
