What is the Cloud Reset? And how does it impact your organization’s enterprise infrastructure strategy? CloudNine discusses that here!

The post, titled (wait for it!) The “Cloud Reset”: Why Enterprises Are Bringing Data Management Back In-House and Why Legal Should Too (available here), discusses how for more than a decade, enterprise IT strategy favored an almost singular mission: get as many data and business processes as possible into the public cloud. While that approach unlocked scalability, rapid provisioning, and new ways of working, a “Cloud Reset” is now reshaping enterprise infrastructure strategy with major implications for government agencies, legal operations, litigation support teams, and corporate legal departments.

The Cloud Reset refers to a growing trend where organizations are rebalancing their cloud strategies, moving critical workloads back into private cloud and on-premise environments, and choosing the most appropriate infrastructure for each workload rather than defaulting to public cloud. A Fortune 100 corporation recently shared its research that 69% of surveyed enterprises are considering repatriating workloads, and more than one-third have already done so. At the same time, private cloud is now being seen as a strategic platform equal to public cloud, not a fallback.  

This shift is especially relevant as enterprises build environments for AI, data governance, compliance, and cost control; areas where private infrastructure often has significant advantages. The cloud reset strategy approaches a thoughtful hybrid approach rather than an “all cloud” or “all on-premise” policy.

So, what are the three core drivers of the cloud reset? And what does that mean for legal departments & eDiscovery? Find out here, it’s only one click! Reset your screen to their article to learn more! 😉

So, what do you think? How is your organization addressing public cloud, private cloud and on-premise for its data? Please share any comments you might have or if you’d like to know more about a particular topic.
