Even as businesses navigate some economic uncertainty, cloud adoption is continuing to expand among public and private organizations in a bid to modernize operations and boost digital customer engagement.
In fact, global spending on public cloud services is expected to grow 21.7% to $597.3 billion in 2023, up from $491 billion in 2022, according to recent data from Gartner Inc.
Experts say they expect a large percentage of business applications to run on public clouds operated by the cloud market share leaders Amazon, Microsoft and Google. That said, even mature cloud adopters still grapple with hefty costs, operational inefficiencies combined with a lack of automation, IT complexities and a shortage of critical skills.
All this points to an important reality: IT and business modernization — especially via the cloud — can make businesses competitive and agile only when done right. At Kyndryl, we’ve proactively forged premium partnerships with major hyperscalers to help our customers harvest all the benefits from the cloud.
