Top 5 Cloud Computing Trends in 2021

At the end of 2016, it was found that cloud computing is the hottest skill an IT professional could have. Also, in the final quarter of that year, it was seen that the revenues of AWS and Azure clouds had risen up by 93% & 47% respectively. Later by 2017, it was found that 18 million jobs were generated in cloud computing. In fact, in the last year (2019) AWS cloud was the market leader with a market share of 32% whereas Microsoft Azure had a market share of 29%

Adding to this various researches have confirmed that in 2021 applications, data and infrastructure will be everywhere. Where distributed clouds will be supporting tethered and untethered operations of like-for-like cloud services between the public cloud and the dispersed physical locations. This will increase the ratios of those organizations which will be finding it difficult to make architectural decisions because of the fast pace of change and technological diversity.

All this will lead to and has led to the most successful cloud adopting organizations in hiring and appointing a cloud architect and developing a Cloud Center Of Excellence (CCOE). Since Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) and Platform as a Service (PaaS) cloud providers are not responsible for user data or corporate content placed within their services. Providers commit to service availability, but customers are responsible for data availability.

At the beginning of 2021 while we have walked into a fresh decade we also have encountered various new and fresh trends that haven’t paid attention to. To have an upper hand at your workplace and while eliminating the competition. This also has the potential to inspire our team members while developing new technology and innovating. Here are some of the finest trends that have made the cloud computing industry an intense and exciting place.

1.Cloud computing trends will continue to get dominated by the digital natives:

If you’d look at just the cloud computing as a tool operating across the industries you will know that the industries majorly are filled with newcomers. These people have outgrown various corporations and MNCs as a part of their workforce, hence, all they have with them is the basic knowledge about the technologies. Which means that having this huge number of freshers into the organizations has brought a change in the communications, work and the growth of the cloud community as a whole. Like professionals today prefer taking up things like WhatsApp phone calls and twitter to emails.

Simultaneously, one of the most challenging things will be integrating the digital equipped professionals by channelizing their energies with the staff older and more experienced than them. Using such new team members as an asset to the organization exploiting social media tools and by adding modern communication. This has resulted in integrating technological advancements along with the workforce to make them more efficient and competent. It further has helped in creating a robust community in creating a perfect environment for innovation in cloud computing.

2.AI (Artificial Intelligence) has gotten a smarter tool:

Talking about the AI becoming a smarter and better tool may simply come across as a fact but that doesn’t mean it is true. However, what truly has made this tool a smart and an admissible tool is an innovation that has happened in the AI which has allowed users in performing a task faster and with more efficiency.

This is because it has allowed in automating and managing their processing speed and accuracy. Furthermore, the core competency that lies within the AI system recognition, machine learning, and intelligent robotics has given organizations a chance to scale up and manage the big data in the most efficient manner.

3.Containers have grown to be more popular over the days:

Containers are the most popular choice amongst the developers. This has been possible because of its ability to both move and manage codes which can be pretty crucial at the time of innovation or development. Kubernetes was one of the hottest trends in the previous year i.e. 2019 adding to this the open-source management applications built out in multiple self-contained runtimes. Additionally, Kubernetes has become the go-to for container orchestration and this has been a disruption in the industry that continues to push innovation for application developers in 2021.

4.Mobile cloud computing (MCC) proving to be an upcoming cloud computing trend:

MCC typically describes how the mobile applications are built. These are operated and bosted with cloud computing technologies. This innovative approach will continue to grow throughout this year (2021) and will also enhance the quality of the mobile application for working across a number of mobile devices while having a strong focus on the experience of the users.

5.Machine learning working towards network automation:

The trends goes to prove that organizations will continue to put a strong emphasis on network automation using Artificial Intelligence (AI) and its subsets. As far as machine learning is concerned this will continue to grow in this year i.e. 2021.

For example, IT service management and business operations will be working towards accommodating the hot trends. Over and above by optimising the consumption of power using automated tasks will advance the cybersecurity. This will be resulting in innovation and create a larger network and space while more cases continue to increase.

In the end, we would like to add on that for a fact there is a lot to be looked forward to in the cloud computing as this year continues to grow and move ahead. Where cloud computing vendors like Microsoft Azure and AWS will be continuing to grow their services and innovate for a better and higher level of opportunities. In fact, this even can be seen with Microsoft Azure where Microsoft has already started to change their Azure certification modules. And AWS is also expected to bring in some new changes.
