Why Getting an AWS Certification Is Significant?

Cloud computing has emerged as the most trending topic in the world of Information Technology. Cloud technologies are quickly becoming the future for organizations regardless of industry. The emergence of leading-edge technologies like Machine Learning (ML) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) is driving a push to cloud-based technology. New cloud service models are coming on the sight continuously and organizations (small or large) are undoubtedly moving their infrastructure as well as applications over to the cloud. As per IDC, expense on public cloud services and infrastructure collectively around the globe will hit by 23.8% from 2018, reaching a total spend of USD 210-billion in 2019. The projected 5yrs CAGR (compound annual growth rate) from 2017 to 2022 is forecasted to be 22.5% to reach USD370 billion.

When it comes to cloud computing, Amazon Web Services presently leads and continues to grow. Amazon Web Services undoubtedly is the sole leader of cloud computing space because of its compliance with cloud computing models such as Platform as a Service (PaaS), Software as a Service (SaaS), and Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). The supremacy of Amazon Web Services can be observed from the reality that it holds 30% of the cloud market share, which is three times to its close player Microsoft Azure standing at 9%. Forward-looking enterprises are drawn to these next-gen clouds for three prime reasons:

Future Trends in Data Analytics

The future of business is data

Data is exploding: the IDC says data is growing at 40% annually. By 2025, there will be 175 zettabytes —that’s 175 sextillions bytes-of data floating around the world.

To harness that data and use it to create a competitive advantage can be quite daunting. One way forward-thinking organizations have responded to the challenge is by focusing on streaming data.

Why Cloud-Native Applications are the Future

Everyone is talking about applications being built in a cloud-native landscape these days. What exactly is cloud-native, and why it is so important?

Before we dig deeper, let’s look at an interesting statement. According to IDC, by 2022, 90% of all new apps will feature microservices architectures that improve the ability to design, debug, update, and leverage third-party code; 35% of all production apps will be cloud-native.

AI From an Analyst’s Point of View

It’s always interesting to listen to analysts' points of view on tech topics, at least because they are deeply listened to and followed by many key decision-makers. In this article, I’ll use source Gartner, IDC, and the World Economic Forum as my main sources.

What to Do Over the Two Next Years

Analysts seem to be converging on the fact that 2020 will be the year in which AI will start to take off with the first large-scale deployments. The years 2019 and 2020 will therefore be pivotal for the implementation of AI within companies, which must begin to prepare and reflect on the cases of uses that AI could carry.

The Open Cloud for The Future

When cloud computing emerged, the question on many organization leaders' minds was whether to adopt it at all. Eventually, the question became not whether, but when. Now it’s which cloud tools and platforms to use—and how to ensure they work together seamlessly and securely. One of the great opportunities of the recent movements in technology is the ability to combine and integrate different tools, services, and cloud platforms. We are entering a future marked by openness and interoperability: According to recent research, 82 percent of enterprises have a hybrid cloud strategy, running applications in an average of 1.5 public clouds and 1.7 private clouds, and IDC predicts increasing adoption of hybrid cloud architectures. That’s good news for businesses. Open architectures protect companies from vendor lock-in, add critical redundancies, and enable IT leaders to tap the best solutions to meet their unique business needs without arbitrary constraints that impede progress.

The Cloud was built to help companies succeed in this open, multi-cloud world. Our commitment to openness ensures seamless user experiences across multiple environments and empowers our customers to choose the right tools and platforms to meet their business needs.

Using DevOps Managed Services to Improve Operations With Automated Deployments and Data

In the Digital Revolution, timelines for product delivery and information analysis are slim. Customers set the pace by consuming products and information on-demand — their way. This places immense pressure on businesses to deliver continuously and reliably to satisfy the rapidly escalating demand for all types of goods. Software is the center of the business universe, vital to all aspects of operations. Building and reliably delivering software is now vital to short and long-term success.

According to IDC, as of 2017 more than 580 million software applications were on the market, and another 500 million applications are expected to surface by 2022. Even if they are off by a couple of hundred million, this volume presents a tremendous amount of stress on operations. Our own research indicates that there are more than 100 million companies and government organizations worldwide (~30% in the United States).
