Cloud computing has been the biggest force in the technology market for the past 20 years, and its adoption is accelerating. With around 90% of businesses using the cloud to some degree, it's safe to say that the technology has become a mainstay in IT.
According to ORACLE's research on the future of cloud computing until 2025 we have the following 10 predictions: https://www.oracle.com/a/ocom/docs/cloud/oracle-cloud-predictions-2020.pdf
1. 90% of all manual IT operations and data management tasks will be fully automated, opening the door to a new era of innovation.
2. There will be 600 times more sensitive data shared in the cloud.
3. 100% of enterprise applications will include some form of AI.
4. 100% of supply chain applications will depend on augmented reality, virtual reality, blockchain, ML and IoT.
5. Automated business processes will enable more personalized interactions in HR, sales and other business areas.
6. 80% of major cities will use IoT for Smart City initiatives.
7. Data science will be increasingly automated and integrated into data analysis and management systems.
8. The rise of AI-based machines will create new jobs that haven't been invented yet.
9. Cyber attacks will become more sophisticated with the use of IoT and AI.
10. 80% of data will be linked to things instead of people.
Barriers to cloud adoption remain, but they are changing. Security is still a big concern, but it's not always the primary concern. Lack of resources/expertise is now the #1 cloud challenge. Among the key cloud computing trends to watch are enterprise application migrations, microservice-based application designs, open source (including containers), and multi-cloud architectures. This master's thesis aims to provide an extensive description of the most popular cloud vendors and their products and make comparisons between them based on various criteria such as strategy, sales tactics.
