Se dice que los hechos son tozudos. Para la IA generativa, un hecho obstinado es que consume grandes cantidades de ciclos de cálculo, almacenamiento de datos, ancho de banda de red, energía eléctrica y aire acondicionado. A medida que los CIO responden a los mandatos corporativos de ‘hacer algo’ con la IA generativa, muchos lanzan iniciativas basadas en la nube o en las instalaciones. Pero mientras que la rentabilidad prometida por muchos proyectos de IA generativa es imprecisa, los costes de la infraestructura para ejecutarlos son finitos y, con demasiada frecuencia, inaceptablemente altos. C...

Facts, it has been said, are stubborn things. For generative AI, a stubborn fact is that it consumes very large quantities of compute cycles, data storage, network bandwidth, electrical power, and air conditioning. As CIOs respond to corporate mandates to “just do something” with genAI, many are launching cloud-based or on-premises initiatives. But while the payback promised by many genAI projects is nebulous, the costs of the infrastructure to run them is finite, and too often, unacceptably high. Infrastructure-intensive or not, generative AI is on the march. According to IDC, genAI workloads...

By Jeff Wittich The vast majority of company leaders (98%) recognize the strategic importance of AI, with nearly 65% planning increased investments. Global AI spending is expected to reach $300 billion by 2026. Also by 2026, AI’s electricity usage could increase tenfold, according to the International Energy Agency. Clearly, AI presents businesses with a dual challenge: maximizing AI’s capabilities while minimizing its environmental impact. In the United States alone, power consumption by data centers is expected to double by 2030, reaching 35GW (gigawatts), primarily due to the growing demand...

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...

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 David Linthicum The recent discourse around the security of cloud computing in the banking sector, highlighted by Nicholas Fearn’s piece in the Financial Times, paints a somewhat grim picture of the cybersecurity landscape when it comes to banks moving to cloud computing. Not to pick on just this article, but I’ve seen this as a trend in the past few years, as the value of cloud computing has been called into question more and more. This is a change from just a few years ago when it was verboten to criticize “the cloud.” What happened between then and now? Enterprises saw the weaknesses of ...

By David Linthicum As I’ve been saying for the past year or so, cloud conferences have become generative AI conferences, as have data center conferences, databases conferences, and you name it. It’s clearly more than just a trend—it’s a game-changing push. But we’ve seen this happen enough times in the past 30 years to know nothing is guaranteed to be a true trend. Remember “push technology?” Exactly. As enterprises rush headlong into generative AI, selecting an appropriate infrastructure is critical for optimal performance and cost-effectiveness. Comparing cloud computing and traditional on-p...

By Evan Schuman The global outage that last month prevented McDonald's from accepting payments prompted the company to release a lengthy statement that should serve as a master class in how not to report an IT problem. It was vague, misleading and yet the company used language that still allowed many of the technical details to be figured out. (You know you've moved far from home base when Burger King UK makes fun of you— in response to news of the McDonald's outage, Burger King played off its own slogan by posting on LinkedIn: “Not Loving I.T.”) The McDonald's statement was vague about what h...
