By David Linthicum In the rapidly evolving field of cloud computing, the emergence of generative AI agents, or more colloquially, agentic AI, heralds a potential paradigm shift in how we do AI in the cloud—even before we fully capitalize on generative AI’s true potential. Just as cloud computing transformed the tech landscape, agentic AI has the potential to revolutionize our approach to generative AI architecture by introducing autonomy, intelligence, and efficiency. Before we delve deeper, it’s important to understand that agentic AI is not a one-size-fits-all solution for all AI deployments...

By David Linthicum The rapid evolution of generative AI is poised to influence the significant adoption and expansion of multicloud architecture. What is most interesting is that multicloud is occurring mainly behind the scenes, without much fanfare, taking a backseat to the hype around generative AI. I believe it’s just as important, and enterprises need to pay attention. Everyone saw this comingGenerative AI models, especially large-scale neural networks, require immense computational power and scalable infrastructure. Multicloud architecture is essentially a complex distributed architecture...

By David Linthicum Historically, large language models (LLMs) have required substantial computational resources. This means development and deployment are confined mainly to powerful centralized systems, such as public cloud providers. However, although many people believe that we need massive amounts of GPUs bound to vast amounts of storage to run generative AI, in truth, there are methods to use a tier or partitioned architecture to drive value for specific business use cases. Somehow, it’s in the generative AI zeitgeist thatedge computing won’t work. This is given the processing requirement...

By David Linthicum The tech industry is buzzing with talk of cloud repatriation, partly due to some articles I have written here. What frustrates me about this industry is the lack of nuance. People make everything seem like drastic shifts. The last example of this was edge computing. Many articles I read claimed that “the shift is to the edge.” That caused a lot of confusion. Reporters, clients, and students all reached out to ask if the cloud was dead since edge computing now seemed like the way to go. Of course, that never came true, nor does any extreme shift that the analyst and tech pres...

El camino hacia la nube no es uno fácil, está lleno de obstáculos y llegar a buen puerto requiere de una estrategia a largo plazo bien pensada. Ese fue el foco de las conversaciones que tuvieron lugar en el Cloud & Infrastructure Forum 2024, organizado por IDC y Foundry con el patrocinio de DE-CIX, que se llevó a cabo el pasado 21 de mayo en Madrid. En él, Miguel Torres, CIO de Prosegur –ganador del premio al proyecto de Infraestructura Digital & Cloud en los CIO 100 Awards Spain 2023-, narró en detalle la odisea de la compañía para migrar su negocio a la nube. Hace cinco años, Prosegur lanzó ...

By David Linthicum According to Forrester’s Infrastructure Cloud Survey in 2023, 79% of about 1,300 enterprise cloud decision-makers surveyed said their organizations are implementing private clouds. Additionally, IDC forecasts that global spending on private, dedicated cloud services, including hosted private clouds, will hit $20.4 billion in 2024 and will at least double by 2027. In addition, global spending on enterprise private cloud infrastructure, including hardware, software, and support services, will be $51.8 billion in 2024 and grow to $66.4 billion in 2027, according to IDC. Of cour...

By Prince Mahajan When we set out to rebuild the engine at the heart of our managed Apache Kafka service, we knew we needed to address several unique requirements that characterize successful cloud-native platforms. These systems must be multi-tenant from the ground up, scale easily to serve thousands of customers, and be managed largely by data-driven software rather than human operators. They should also provide strong isolation and security across customers with unpredictable workloads, in an environment in which engineers can continue to innovate rapidly. We presented our Kafka engine rede...

By David Linthicum As most IT people know, GPUs are in high demand and are critical for running and training generative AI models. The alternative cloud sector, also known as microclouds, is experiencing a significant surge. Businesses such as CoreWeave, Lambda Labs, Voltage Park, and Together AI are at the forefront of this movement. CoreWeave, which started as a cryptocurrency mining venture, has become a major provider of GPU infrastructure. This shift illustrates a broader trend in which companies are increasingly relying on cloud-hosted GPU services, mainly due to the high cost and techni...

By David Linthicum The Big Three cloud providers, AWS, Microsoft, and Google, are going like gangbusters. The most likely reason is two letters: AI. The first quarter of 2024 saw the strongest growth since the third quarter of 2022. Enterprise spending on cloud infrastructure services topped $76 billion during Q1 2024, up by $13.5 billion (a 21% increase) compared with Q1 of 2023. The Big Three cloud providers now account for 67% of global cloud spending. Amazon still retains its lead at 31%, but its share is shrinking compared with Microsoft (25%) and Google (11%), which showed stronger year-...
