David Linthicum and Mike Kavis look ahead at cloud for 2024: trends, tech, and insights

In this special LinkedIn Live edition of the podcast Deloitte’s David Linthicum and Mike Kavis forecast all the big trends and tech for cloud, 2024. They predict that 2024 is going to be the year that Generative AI begins to return value to the business, and that cloud optimization and multi-cloud management will become more critical than ever—partially because of Generative AI. They also engage in an animated discussion of how to balance workloads between on-premises and cloud.
