According to IDC, worldwide spending on public cloud services is forecasted to reach $805 billion in 2024 and double in size by 2028. This, combined with organizations’ growing needs to adopt new technologies like generative AI, will result in increased demand for cloud-based services. As Pega clients incorporate new Pega InfinityTM solutions – including Pega GenAITM capabilities – on Pega Cloud, Guerrera’s strategic leadership position will help provide global support so clients can quickly realize benefits, including:

  • Enhanced application deployment and performance: Clients can accelerate the deployment and optimize the performance of Pega applications by quickly adopting and upgrading to the latest Pega technologies to remain agile as needs evolve.
  • Scalability and efficiency: Pega Cloud operates as a service so clients can scale their infrastructure based on need and only pay for what they use. They can also increase efficiency by offloading maintenance tasks, freeing up IT teams for more strategic initiatives.
  • Security and disaster recovery: Pega Cloud provides stringent security measures while adhering to industry standards and regulations so clients can feel confident that their data is safeguarded and their technology is compliant. Predictive monitoring, automated backups, failover capabilities, and redundancy measures help minimize downtime and protect critical business processes.

As chief cloud officer, Guerrera will oversee all aspects of cloud business development. His responsibilities will include driving Pega Cloud adoption, managing cloud migration efforts, and facilitating the transition from legacy systems. Guerrera will also collaborate across the Pega ecosystem to ensure alignment and effective execution to help clients continue to lower costs, increase revenue, and reduce risk.
