Cloud and AI will merge, but complexity will be a challenge

Cloud and AI: Their future is bright, but complexity management is crucial

Cloud—despite some recent challenges—is the future of IT. That future is also increasingly intertwined with artificial intelligence (AI). In this episode, David Linthicum sits down with eWeek’s James Maguire to discuss the future of cloud and AI. According to James, cloud and AI will grow to be symbiotic and eventually merge, but that will only add to the complexity management challenge. In the future, superclouds will help mitigate complexity, and AI will be their engine for success.

Artificial intelligence will need cloud to reach its highest potential. There's a very powerful symbiotic relationship there.

AI/ML: Easier, faster, and more powerful with cloud

AI/ML isn't new, but pairing it with cloud is enabling companies to use AI/ML in new ways, and with new capabilities to perform more sophisticated, accurate analytics to better serve their customers.

Mediating cloud complexity with abstraction and automation

If you're like many other companies, your multi-cloud journey has hit a complexity wall that can increase costs and reduce value. One key to solving cloud complexity lies in abstraction and automation.
