The cloud has moved on from being the latest buzz word to a modern user’s must have
service. SMBs and large scale enterprise organisations would probably admit to being so
reliant on cloud services that their companies wouldn’t exist without it. So what’s next for
cloud technology?
RISE OF THE MACHINES
Where Next for the Cloud?
Big Data, AI, Machine Learning, cavernous datacentres and quantum computing
are all terms bandied about when it comes to discussing the future of the cloud.
In truth, no one really knows which direction cloud
technologies will take over the next five to ten years.
However, it’s generally agreed that the aforementioned
terms will play a big role in defining what the future of the
cloud will look like.
Cloud technologies are still in their infancy, in technical
terms at least. We’ve only just started to use the cloud for
everyday tasks, as consumers. Equate to physical technology
and we’ve just reached the point in the early 80s when the
home computer became possible and popular.Whilst it’s a little disconcerting to think that we’re putting
our trust into a technology that’s at the equivalent level of a
Commodore 64, it does mean that the future, consider the
next forty years, is going to be quite spectacular.Advanced Cloud Uses
