NOTE FROM THE EDITOR: When companies tout digital transformation and modernization, they’re almost always talking about cloud. Cloud is the foundation upon which innovation rests. Agile processes, big data, automation and, yes, generative AI all depend on cloud for storage and compute. We’ll explore the benefits and some of the complications of cloud with experts and practitioners during our live virtual event this afternoon — What it takes to run in the cloud. First, CIO Dive Editor Roberto Torres will host a fireside chat with M&T Bank CIO Mike Wisler at 2 p.m. ET. Then, at 2:30, I’ll moderate a panel discussion with Travelers CIO Tracey Cournoyer, XPO CIO Jay Silberkleit and cloud consultant Andy Sealock, a senior partner at West Monroe. There's still time to register [here](. We’re looking forward to talking cloud and taking your questions.
