Cloud computing has become increasingly popular in recent years, and for good reason. It offers a number of benefits for businesses of all sizes, including scalability, cost savings, and increased agility. Having developed many cloud computing applications over the years, Era Biz Solutions felt it key to state the benefits and trends related to cloud computing<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is Cloud Computing?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Cloud Computing Dictionary<\/a> of Microsoft Azure defines Cloud computing as the \u201cdelivery of computing services\u2014including servers, storage, databases, networking, software, analytics, and intelligence\u2014over the Internet (\u201cthe cloud\u201d) to offer faster innovation, flexible resources, and economies of scale\u201d. In simpler terms Cloud Computing is the usage and storage of information on a virtual network of servers connected together as a single ecosystem, otherwise known as the \u2018cloud\u2019, for the enhancement of speed and efficiency and the reduction of cost<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Growth of Cloud Computing<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Cloud Computing is said to have originated in the 1960s with the initiation of the ARPANET by J. C. R. Licklider. However, the true popularity of the \u201ccloud\u201d began in 2006 when Amazon introduced the first commercial cloud service known as the Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) for the Amazon Web Service (AWS).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2010 Cloud Computing had a huge boost when Microsoft entered the cloud market with Azure. By 2012 Cloud Computing had started having drastic increases in its usage and started making echoes in media and other online platforms. According to Statista<\/a>, the global hosting and cloud computing market grew from USD 24.63 billion in 2010 to USD 156.4 billion in 2020, a growth of over 600% in just 10 years. In the recent few years Cloud Computing has been evolving even more in leaps and bounds, not least due to the remote work<\/a> trend and the rapid spread of the usage of AI<\/a> and Machine Learning with ChatGPT. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the most recent statistics by Statista<\/a>, the public cloud services end-user spending worldwide is now at USD 591.79 billion. Here a public cloud is defined as \u201ca type of cloud computing through which a service provider makes resources, such as applications, virtual machines, or storage capabilities available to the public via the internet.\u201d[Statista<\/a>]. In a research article, Zippia<\/a> stated that 60% of all corporate data worldwide is now on the cloud as of 2023, and the volume is still growing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, Market.us<\/a> stated in a 2023 report that the Global Cloud Computing Market size is expected to have a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 16% over the 10 year period from 2022 to 2023, forecasting that Cloud Computing would have a Global Market size of USD 2,321 billion. Taking these statistics into consideration, many businesses have started the complete shift to cloud computing recently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
