Take a closer look at how far the cloud market has come and how we can expect it to continue to (quickly) grow in the years ahead.
Cloud in 2014
When Amazon first announced its Lambda offering in 2014, it solved major market pain points by eliminating the need to rewrite applications and provision computer infrastructure. The service is designed to make it easy for developers to bring solutions to market faster and more cost effectively, without server-related concerns.
Other public cloud hosts, such as Google Compute Cloud and Microsoft Azure Cloud, also saw momentum as they similarly helped drive down costs while adding new features that made cloud even more practical for enterprises.
