The Future of Cloud Engineering: Trends and Technologies to Watch

The Future of Cloud Engineering:

Trends and Technologies to Watch Cloud engineering has grown from a niche activity to an essential portion of current IT infrastructure. As companies continue to transition to the cloud, cloud engineers are becoming more important. Staying updated on trends and technologies that change at a rapid pace is crucial in this profession.

This article outlines the future of cloud engineering, including trends and technologies to watch.

1. Multi-Cloud and Hybrid Cloud Strategies One trend in cloud engineering is the rise of multi-cloud and hybrid cloud environments. Companies have decided no longer using a single cloud provider, but to use multiple cloud providers to create flexibility and minimize downtime. Hybrid cloud environments, where companies have infrastructure on-premises and deploy public and private cloud services, give companies flexibility, while still maintaining control of their most critical data.

2. Cloud-Native Development Cloud-native development is also gaining traction as companies start to move away from building traditional monolithic applications. Cloud-native development allows companies to used the latest practices and technologies, to build scalable and resilient applications, with microservices, containers, and serverless architecture, having a variety of enabling technologies, notably Kubernetes and Docker, that can be integrated with public and private cloud services to create automatic scaling.
