The benefits of cloud computing, which include increased speed, greater flexibility, and uninterrupted service, can be realized in a variety of ways within individual businesses and even within individual cloud stacks. The organizing, analysis, and management of a significant portion of this is, of course, greatly aided by the use of large-scale clouds. Equally as crucial is the dramatic increase in the number of edge devices built to send and receive new information. These edge devices can take the shape of purpose-made appliances, linked computers, or sensors that are connected to the internet of things.
The incorporation of cloud-like technologies within and in conjunction with the technology that already exists is becoming an increasingly significant aspect. Both Kubernetes, a widely used container management platform, and Istio, a layer for managing microservices, were first made available to the public by Google as open-source software with the intention of bringing the advantages of cloud computing to other layers of the information technology stack. Adopting technologies such as these, which are open-source, can further accelerate the trend toward streaming by fostering new levels of information-sharing and interoperability with preexisting public and even private clouds. This is true of any open-source solution.
In this part of the article, we have taken a technology-driven approach to analyzing how the enterprise of the future takes shape. This includes everything from the specific tools that a company adopts to the internal systems that are created as a result of these tools to the evolving culture and leadership of the company. Although they all have their origins in technology, the instances that we look at have wider-ranging ramifications for the rest of the company.

The adoption of cloud computing is often motivated by a single, straightforward goal on the part of many businesses: to handle fundamental computer activities, such as storage, networking, and application management, in a more cost- and time-effective manner. Also, everyone’s data universe is expanding, which goes without saying. IDC predicts that by the year 2025, the entire volume of data throughout the globe would have reached 175 zettabytes. 12 Companies need to be able to manage and make use of that in order to maintain their relevance. The initial investment in physical storage devices is just the beginning of the costs associated with storing data on-premises; additional costs come into play when it comes to storing, upgrading, and maintaining these equipment.
It’s not just a volume problem. Complicating matters further is the wide range of data formats and sources (Internet of Things devices, online customer interactions, legacy business systems, and so on), as well as the rapidity with which data is created, processed, and analyzed. This adds another layer of complexity to the situation. It is necessary to have a network that is safe, dependable, and quick enough to handle all of these in real time, especially in regions that have limited accessibility and high levels of latency. Only then can all of these things function together effectively.
Cloud computing is becoming increasingly popular among businesses as a solution to these difficulties. When organizations migrate their data off of their physical servers and onto the cloud, they have access to nearly limitless storage space and realize cost savings on server maintenance. These organizations enable additional networking and computational benefits of cloud computing, such as high reliability, little downtime, and complementing solutions that make data processing and analysis easier.
It should come as no surprise that a growing number of businesses are moving their data storage to the cloud, as this model offers storage that can be scaled up or down depending on requirements, as well as networking and computing power that can take the Internet to locations it has never been before.
Research conducted by Cisco indicates that the amount of work done in the public cloud as well as the number of compute instances would increase by 28 percent between the years 2016 and 2021.
Because of the recent convergence of three factors—advanced algorithms, access to huge volumes of digital training data, and inexpensive, abundant computing power—machine learning (ML) is now a reality after decades of stop-start progress. This is due to the fact that cloud computing has made all three of these factors readily available. The use of machine learning techniques can assist firms in locating patterns within massive streams of data, automating mundane operations, and freeing up employees to focus more of their efforts on work that cannot be automated (like writing new applications or crafting great user experiences).
