Cloud computing: what will happen in 10 years?

Assume that in 2023, you are sitting in a flying car with your former colleague. You two have discussed this topic-what has happened to cloud computing in the past?

As a buzzword, just like all other buzzwords, cloud computing will eventually be integrated into all our technologies and there will be fewer and fewer seminars on concepts. In the past 10 years, cloud computing will penetrate almost all industry fields. In the future, enterprises will use cloud computing normally. There are two possible development routes:

In the past 10 years, cloud computing has become the standard for assembling all business solutions. We will use existing core services within the enterprise or resources from public cloud providers to assemble and restructure our business solutions. These solutions are all utility-based, such as raw storage, computing, security, management, or other more complex business applications such as the market prediction service.

Cloud computing is now around us. In the past 10 years, it should be based on the same set of standards, and the compatibility has become better and better, no matter which vendor you use. In addition, they should be able to dynamically discover and heal themselves, just like private services that you own and maintain. Or public cloud services from any public cloud supplier.

In the past 10 years, cloud-based data will include better understanding of data based on the context. Today's data is largely isolated from systems that are hard to access or be collected for business intelligence. As more and more data is migrated to the cloud, enterprises will be able to fully understand how to use this information and query PB of data at any time. In fact, we are already on the road to big data.

Of course, some enterprise data is meaningless unless integrated with external intelligence to extract available information. In the past 10 years, public data services will include information such as key economic indicators, average sales trends in vertical industries, and other frameworks that can generate value for your data. You only need to mix and match your business information and data to achieve powerful potential analysis. Similarly, this aspect also exists today, but this concept cannot be fully implemented by most IT enterprises at present.

This is only two aspects of the future development of cloud computing. We can determine that cloud technologies will more and more be embedded into our lives. Many other cloud-based derivative concepts will also emerge. All in all, we are moving towards better and stronger technology and computing practices.
