When it comes to cloud growth, it’s probably safe to say that the sky isn’t falling, even though revenue growth rates have been. We’ve seen the aggregate public cloud revenue growth decline from 32% in Q1 last year to 19% this year. That’s a pretty steep drop-off, and it shows that the cloud has run into some headwinds.

That’s partly because the Covid-19 pandemic and the rise of cloud computing have illustrated the importance of enterprise technology and digital transformation, CIOs said. Discretionary spending such as proof-of-concept tests—which validate whether an emerging technology is ready for…
