Introduction
Businesses run workloads on the Cloud when planning new projects, most likely to do with innovation or doing something new. Typical first workloads that we see are web applications, often because of Amazon Web Services (AWS)'s scalability, which is impossible to have the same scalability on-prem. Usually, big companies' innovation teams are the first to use AWS because it's easier to experiment and much easier to launch new things.
In the last two or three years, Artificial Intelligence machine learning has risen as a popular workload. Very few companies today do AI/ML at scale on their environment. It's so much easier to do it on a platform like AWS because of all the data storage services you have and the pre-configured services at your disposal that are much easier to use and leverage than setting up your own tools and applications.
