The shift to public cloud computing is significantly transforming enterprise technology, with indications that workloads are moving from on-premises to the public cloud, driven by reduced storage costs and a desire for developers to focus on value creation. Major trends influencing this shift include the evolution of infrastructure (like the rise of virtualization and containers), a change in application design towards microservices, and the growing trust in public cloud solutions. AWS is a dominant player in this space, demonstrating rapid revenue growth and shaping market dynamics.
