What are the Most Popular Cloud Platforms Among Tech Pros?
For years, Amazon Web Services (AWS) seemed to dominate tech professionals' cloud usage. Is that still the case? Or have competing web platforms made strides in adoption over the past few years?
AWS continues to hold a significant share of cloud usage among tech professionals, maintaining the same level of usage in 2024 as in 2023. However, competitors like Azure and Google Cloud have seen increases in their adoption, with Azure rising from 26% to 28% and Google Cloud from 24% to 25%.
Importance of Cloud Skills
As cloud platforms evolve rapidly, including the introduction of new generative AI tools, it is crucial for tech professionals to continuously update their skills. This ongoing learning helps them stay relevant and effective in a landscape where multiple cloud solutions are increasingly integrated into tech stacks.
Learning Cloud Fundamentals
Tech professionals should focus on understanding the principles of cloud computing and related disciplines. Engaging with training programs, such as those offered by AWS Academy and AWS re/Start, can provide valuable knowledge and skills necessary to navigate the complexities of the cloud market.
