Become the advocate your data deserves. Understand the real risks and how to mitigate them.
The big guys like to talk the talk, but do they really walk the walk?
It’s time to look beyond the hype.
In the world of cloud computing, it can feel like it’s all hyperscalers all the time. But new insights recommend rejecting the hyperscaler hype—especially if you need your data sovereignty, traceability, and supply chain management to be in full compliance with Canadian regulations.
Because hyperscalers have a history of overhyped claims…
“Every cloud company can provide a Canadian sovereign cloud solution.”
“If your data resides within a data centre in Canada, it’s sovereign.”
“Forget about cloud first or cloud smart, it should be cloud everything.”
“All cloud solutions are budget friendly.”
“You can come and go from the cloud as you please with ease.”
“Your hyperscale cloud representative has the power to negotiate your contract with you.”
“All clouds are created equally.”
