I think the use cases where you do not need to „know cloud“ are quite limited. Where does knowing the cloud start? When you use a transactional email provider? When you start using an auth. provider? When you integrate an external monitoring framework? When you use a cloud-based object or key-value storage? In my opinion, cloud integration is almost inevitable, but you might realize that a bit later when starting with a monolith.
- scarface74 4y agoAccording to the former CEO of AWS, current CEO of Amazon and my skip*10 manager, only 5% of all IT spend is on any of the major cloud provider https://accelerationeconomy.com/cloud/amazon-shocker-ceo-jassy-says-cloud-less-than-5-of-all-it-spending/ https://accelerationeconomy.com/cloud/amazon-shocker-ceo-jas... People really overestimate how many companies use the cloud in any form for anything.
- davnn 4y agoIMHO a more interesting metric would be the ratio of successful startups using cloud technologies over the last years. I think the cloud is especially interesting to get a competitive advantage early on.
