Business of Tech | Gartner shows how fast we’re getting to cloud first

The other news I wanted to cover today is from Gartner.     The changes that Gartner says are on the horizon will mean major shifts in the way the world does business over the next few years, the results of which Gartner said will be more than 85% of organizations embracing a cloud-first strategy by 2025, and 95% of new digital workloads being deployed on cloud-native platforms (up from 30% in 2021). 

Also in there — By 2025, 70% of new applications developed by organizations will use low-code or no-code technologies, up from less than 25% in 2020.

Why do we care?
This is the area we care about today – clear data showing the state of play.   95% of new workloads cloud native buy 2025, and 85% embracing the strategy.   As we stare at 2022, that’s only three years away.   And that’s why we care – the accelerant of the trend that was happening.      This is planning season… so are you planning to get there?  Are you cloud first?  Cloud only?    How soon will you be there?   

Because the market will be there fully in three years, and as technology providers, this doesn’t feel like one you want to be last for.
