295 Has the cloud-first era reached a turning point?

Guest: Torbjörn Appehl, CEO of LOAD System Language: Swedish Duration: 35.33 min

For years, the direction seemed obvious, move applications, data and infrastructure to the cloud. But that strategy is now being reconsidered. Torbjörn Appehl, CEO of LOAD System, explains why decades-old business-critical systems are still running, and why that is not necessarily a problem. The conversation explores the shift from cloud first to cloud preferred, how legacy systems can be modernised instead of replaced, and why AI is making infrastructure relevant again.

We also discuss digital sovereignty, resilience and the importance of knowing where your data actually resides. The key question is no longer cloud or on-prem, but how to put the right workload in the right place.
