Generally speaking, cloud storage services is the way to go here (e.g. OneDrive, Google Drive, etc.), but there are still plenty of use cases where local storage, NAS and SAN make perfect sense.

Digital transformation isn’t just about new tools—it’s about changing how teams work. Key lessons I’ve observed:

1. Start with process bottlenecks, not technology
2. Empower cross-functional teams
3. Measure outcomes, not outputs

What has been the most surprising lesson your teams have learned during a transformation?

Seeking input: Has anyone drafted an SOW for a cloud-based SIEM with setup, migration, and maintenance? I’m working on a FedRAMP-authorized SIEM SOW, migrating from on-prem Splunk, covering data, searches, alerts, dashboards, and models. 
Scope includes Environment Setup: 
Cloud provisioning, configuration, testing.
Connectors/Parsers: Custom data source integration.
Content Development: Rules, use cases, threat feeds.
Performance Tuning: Query/index optimization.
Runbooks: Operational procedures.

Also required: 24x7 support, maintenance, lifecycle and application management, role-based training, and documentation. 
Must comply with NIST SP 800-53, CJIS, and FedRAMP Moderate+. Goal: Secure, scalable SIEM for rapid deployment. I may be missing elements, so suggestions are welcome. Please share redacted SOWs or tips if possible.
