Tweetchat Questions: the Future of Cloud Computing
The questions we’ll tweet about will include the following – check back for more/revised questions:

I’m just checking: in 2023, the only tech topic that people discuss is AI. So…yawn…does cloud still matter? (Hint: yes, more than ever.)
What key trends are driving the cloud sector here in late 2023?
What’s the most vexing cloud computing challenge today? Managing multicloud? Containing costs?
How do you recommend companies address this difficult challenge?
Okay, to the future: what shifts do you see in cloud as it evolves over the next few years?
How can companies best keep up with – or stay ahead of – these changes in cloud?
How will cloud computing be influenced by AI and generative AI?
What about the future of cloud and a related technology (besides AI)? How about the future cloud and edge, or cloud and data?
Your longer term sense of the cloud? What’s off in the misty distance?

A last Big Thought about cloud computing – what else should managers/buyers/providers know about enterprise cloud?
