How to Gain Cloud Market Share in 2024

In 2024 the cloud landscape will become segmented between vendors that can sustain high rates of growth and expansion and those that cannot. Simply providing cloud services at scale is no longer enough for vendors to gain cloud market share. More complex strategies will define the cloud leaderboard in 2024. Additionally, delivering AI-enabled next-generation capabilities and nurturing ecosystems will garner investment despite the slower market growth and macroeconomic uncertainty.
