The Future is Now

Cloud computing has been a much-touted buzzword in technical circles for some years now, but businesses have not been quick to adopt. 2015 appears to be the year we begin to see an increase in cloud adoption. The push from both the public and private sectors to migrate database applications and platforms to the cloud has gained momentum. Oracle and other major companies, whose technology underpins most of our modern world, have dramatically improved their cloud-based solutions and the stock market has taken notice. Oracle’s stock rating and price have increased in response to the favorable and stable growth predicted by their shift in emphasis to the cloud; Oracle has even reduced prices to increase its market share. While technology visionaries have been advising us that the future of cloud computing is bright, 2015 looks like the year their predictions become reality.
