As cloud adoption is on the rise amid COVID-19, enterprises are looking for cloud experts

The onslaught of the COVID-19 pandemic has expedited a rapid surge in the adoption of cloud computing infrastructure. Businesses significantly bolster their IT spending, especially in cloud services to adapt to the new normal. Cloud computing provides easy access to online data backup solutions that are more critical to today’s business model that is currently turned to remote working. It also enables a remote workforce to stay connected with each other. So, as more and more companies invest in cloud infrastructures, a job opportunity in the cloud industry is gaining momentum.

According to a report, the cloud computing market in India is expected to reach US$4 billion by 2020, from US$2.2 billion in 2018, at an annual growth rate of 30%. This surge in the cloud market will create a million cloud computing job roles by 2022.

Time to Prepare for a Job in Cloud Computing

As businesses compete to lead the cloud ecosystem, they will seek the best talent. As per the data from Indeed, cloud computing jobs per million increased by 55% between October 2015 and October 2019.

In recent years, alliances and acquisitions between IT companies have significantly impacted cloud computing. IBM’s acquisition of RedHat for US$34 billion and AT&T’s announcement to run AT&T’s 5G network on Azure are some instances that how everyone is progressively turning their heads toward the cloud.
