Recently,
Amazon surpassed other top companies when it upgraded its cloud computer
services and solutions. Google Inc. and Amazon are two of the biggest Information
Technology companies in the market. Both of these companies have developed huge
networks within their companies in order to keep their businesses going.
Recently, Google fell behind Amazon as the fastest growing business. Google
Inc. has built one of the most powerful cloud networks of data centers in the
world which could manage over more than three billion search queries every
single day. Hence, the company’s ambitions were to move forward as the one of
the fasting growing businesses. However, now the company is trying to catch
Amazon as it fell behind in the fast-growing business of renting out computing
horsepower to others.
AMZN is best known for selling almost everything from books to movies and clothes
and electronics as well as power tools. Nytimes.com reported that “Amazon Web
Services already provides so-called cloud computing services at low prices for
customers including the Central Intelligence Agency and Netflix. Amazon is trying
to get more tech dollars from business customers by also offering services and
processes that make it a competitor to traditional suppliers of business
technology like Oracle.”
A
senior analyst at Gartner, Lydia Leong gave her expertise views on advanced
technology and cloud computing. She said “Two years ago, public clouds were
maybe 2 percent of all computing workloads. Now they are more than 10 percent.
By 2018, it will be more than 50 percent.”
Google’s Director of cloud business
for corporations gave his views as to why companies now prefer cloud computing
and services over anything. “The cloud is cheaper, but that is not really what
is driving companies into it. They want to be more experimental, faster, data
driven. This is part of a larger change inside companies.”
