Demand Is Growing for Robust, Scalable and Secure Data Movement Strategies

"As organizations continue to navigate their digital transformation journeys, the need for efficient, secure, and scalable data movement strategies has never been more critical. Our latest research highlights the pivotal roles of workload automation, managed file transfer, and iPaaS technologies in addressing the complexities of modern IT environments," said Dan Twing, President and COO of Enterprise Management Associates (EMA™), referring to a new report, Data in Motion: Orchestrating File Transfers and Data Pipelines in the Cloud Era.

In an era when enterprise IT landscapes are continually evolving, the strategic movement of data has become a cornerstone of maintaining agility, competitive edge, and operational efficiency. As businesses pivot toward a data-centric model, the ability to transfer data efficiently and securely across multifaceted and distributed systems has risen to paramount importance. With the integration of cloud services and the imperative of digital transformation, managing the flow of data within and across organizational boundaries has become exponentially complex and critical.

Report findings include:

■ 88% of survey respondents agree or strongly agree that digital transformation is requiring more from file transfer and data moving software.

■ The burgeoning data volumes, reported by 42%, along with the need for streaming data, underscore the escalating demand for more sophisticated, robust, and scalable file transfer and data moving solutions.

■ The role of WLA in orchestrating data movement is expanding, with 80% of survey participants indicating the use of WLA in file transfer activities.

■ 72% of respondents have adopted real-time data integration, reflecting the growing necessity for data to be instantly accessible, fostering nimbleness in business operations.

■ 90% of respondents deem compliance requirements extremely or very important.
