The Pandemic

The Pandemic Driven New Age of Cloud Computing

While it is difficult to tell what is coming up next with the pandemic, what is easier to predict is how much digital transformation will be accelerated. Digital transformation already began way before the pandemic, but it was mostly focused on cost savings. The pandemic has made digital transformation inevitable now as adaptability and changing quickly have become crucial needs. It has also made organizations become more aware of the full potential of the technologies they have already had or have adopted since the pandemic hit.

This accelerated the adoption of cloud computing, as organizations realized that cloud computing went far beyond having data centres. Before the pandemic, organizations had a myriad of reasons not to prioritize digital transformation, such as costs involved, perceived retaliation by employees or customers, lack of adaptability with legacy systems, and lack of support by leadership. Companies need to remember that it is not enough to just invest in new technologies: it is also important to invest in employees. Companies should prioritize employee satisfaction as much as customer experience, and to ensure that training programs are effective.

The future of the world post-pandemic will undeniably be driven by cloud computing, and cloud computing will only get more sophisticated and intelligent. It is truly exciting to imagine a post-pandemic world where more opportunities and possibilities become available due to the power of cloud computing. The book's content is ideal for users wanting to know the new age of cloud strategies, cloud security and best practices, benefits of cloud migration etc. with recent pandemic situation.
