Has the cloud reached its peak, or are we witnessing the next major shift in cloud computing? Many organisations rushed to the cloud, lifting and shifting infrastructure without truly modernising. Now, as serverless, edge computing, and AI-driven operations take centre stage, is the traditional cloud model becoming outdated?

In this episode, we break down:

Why 'lift and shift' cloud migrations may already be holding businesses back
The rise of serverless computing – is it really "serverless"?
How edge computing is reshaping cloud strategy
The impact of AI and automation on cloud operations
Whether businesses should rethink their cloud investments

Join us as we explore whether the cloud we know is still the future—or if the next evolution is already here.
