Digging Out from COVID-19, Looking Toward Public Cloud Stabilization?

For the most part, organizations have started to clean up the cloud computing messes they made in early 2020 due to COVID-19 and, frankly, throughout the pandemic.

Two years out from that unprecedented global event, CIOs and IT teams know that they cannot willy-nilly deploy cloud resources. They must maintain oversight and control of their environments, for purposes including budgeting, security and privacy. To those ends, a number of organizations are implementing more responsible approaches to cloud.

Because of that, some observers are whispering about the possibility of a slowdown in cloud adoption. But, really, what seems to be happening is a stabilization or a rationalization. Cloud computing is going nowhere. The technology indeed serves as the foundation for modern business.
