Smart Cloud Native
The Future Is Smart Cloud Native
Cloud Native Is the Next-Generation Data Center
As Gartner reports
The cloud will be the centerpiece of new digital experiences. For businesses that means it’s time to adopt a cloud-first approach, or risk languishing in an on-premise data center.
Similarly, 451 Group asserts that
We are entering an era in which cloud will no longer be seen as a separate IT category: Quite simply, it is the IT.
The Cloud Eats IT
The pervasive expansion of cloud-native and its displacement of the old data center model is reflected in these Gartner predictions:
- “By 2025, Gartner estimates that over 95% of new digital workloads will be deployed on cloud-native platforms, up from 30% in 2021.”
- “More than 85% of organizations will embrace a cloud-first principle by 2025 and will not be able to fully execute on their digital strategies without the use of cloud-native architectures and technologies.”
- “New workloads deployed in a cloud-native environment will be pervasive, not just popular,” says Gartner, “and anything non-cloud will be considered legacy.”
In short, says Gartner, “expect cloud-native technology to be growing rapidly in the next few years, and practically everywhere by 2025.”
As this new normal takes hold, the ability to leverage smart cloud-native technologies becomes imperative, and mastery of smart cloud-native will separate the winners from the losers in every industry.

Smart Cloud-Native Applications Power Innovation
The Future Is Smart: Cloud Native + AI
Organizations that are building cloud-native applications today will need to evolve their capabilities to manage AI workloads because the next generation of cloud-native applications will have AI at their core. We call those “smart cloud-native” applications because they have AI built in.
Digital experiences that are powered by AI and continually self-improving will be the defining attributes of the next generation of winning products in all industries.
The time is now to acquire smart cloud-native capabilities or risk falling behind more nimble competitors in your market.
