The rapid pace of technological advancements and evolving best practices make it challenging for organizations to find skilled cloud experts. The shortage of capable cloud industry experts can be attributed to a skills gap. Traditional IT professionals may lack the specific knowledge and hands-on experience required to effectively leverage cloud services. Cloud computing requires a different set of skills, including knowledge of cloud platforms (e.g., AWS), infrastructure as code, containerization, serverless computing, and security in the cloud.
The availability and accessibility of comprehensive cloud computing training and education programs play a crucial role in addressing the skills gap. Organizations and individuals should invest in training programs, certifications, and hands-on experience to develop the necessary cloud computing expertise. Initiatives like CloudSchool aim to bridge this gap by providing targeted training and upskilling opportunities.
