The cloud is the future for both – enterprises seeking modernization and increased productivity, and service providers seeking more revenue. But there are certain challenges for cloud service providers.
1. Absence of knowledge and skills shortage
Internal operations and workflows associated with a cloud business are still something that many service providers are wrapping their heads around.
2. Absence of automation in cloud billing
Cloud pricing is quite complex, and its billing is unlike the billing mechanism. This complexity has spawned the need for an automated invoicing tool
3. Inability to meet regulatory compliances
Cloud service providers need to work on their security standards as feverishly as they seek to better their technological capabilities.
4. Inability to stand out from the competition
There are myriad cloud solutions available today posing a challenge for a cloud hosting service provider to differentiate and stand out in this crowd
5. Inability to deliver and manage a cloud solution of different brands under one roof
CSPs need an underlying infrastructure designed to work seamlessly from hardware to applications in the multi-cloud environment
