Reflecting the cloud journey

With the evolutionary and revolutionary traits of cloud computing, there is a major awareness on the charter of data center optimization and transformation. The acts of simplification and standardization for achieving IT industrialization are garnering a lot of attention these days. The various IT resources, such as memory, disk storage, processing power, and I/O consumption are critically and cognitively monitored, measured, and managed towards their utmost utilization. The pooling and sharing of IT solutions and services are being given paramount importance towards the strategic IT optimization. Also, having a dynamic pool of computing, storage, and network resources enable IT service providers, as well as enterprise IT teams to meet any kinds of spikes and emergencies in resource needs for their customers and users.

Even with all the unprecedented advancements in the cloud landscape, there are a plenty of futuristic and fulsome opportunities and possibilities for IT professors and professionals to take the cloud idea to the next level in its long journey. Therefore, the concept of software-defined cloud environments (SDCEs) is gaining a lot of accreditation these days. Product vendors, cloud service providers, system integrators, and other principal stakeholders are keen to have such advanced and acclaimed environments for their clients, customers, and consumers. The right and relevant technologies for the realization and sustenance of software-defined cloud environments are fast maturing and stabilizing, and hence the days of SDCEs are not too far away.

In conclusion, the various technological evolutions and revolutions are remarkably enhancing the quality of human lives across the world. Carefully choosing and smartly leveraging the fully matured and stabilized technological solutions and services towards the much-anticipated and acclaimed digital transformation is necessary for a safe, smarter, and sustainable planet.
