Five trends in cloud infrastructure and what they mean
Blog post from HashiCorp
HashiCorp's Armon Dadgar discusses the future of cloud infrastructure, highlighting the growth of edge computing and the need for solutions that simplify management across platforms. He notes that the industry is experiencing a fragmentation in infrastructure due to the increasing adoption of public cloud and edge technologies. This trend brings new challenges, such as unifying management landscapes across multiple providers, managing growing numbers of endpoints, devices, and applications, and adopting an identity-first approach to security. Dadgar emphasizes the importance of tooling that provides consistency and simplicity for managing multi-cloud and edge environments, as well as moving away from manual processes and embracing automation. He also touches on the need for a standardized approach to network management and the rise of internal developer platforms that abstract infrastructure complexity.
