Abstract

Cloud computing is a primary driver for digital transformation, driving agility, scalability, and efficiency enhancements across industries. This chapter introduces cloud computing benefits such as flexibility, cost reduction, and accelerated innovation. Cloud strategies such as Hybrid, Multi-Cloud, and a Cloud-Native approach to fit the business needs will be explored. Some industry-specific impacts concerning healthcare, finance, and manufacturing processes will be vividly brought forth. While cloud adoption is a beneficial decision, it can also pose threats such as security, compliance, and integration challenges that will be addressed through mitigation strategies. The future trends in cloud computing that will be discussed include AI-driven cloud services, Edge computing, and Serverless architectures. Real-world case studies will fortify the argument on successful practical applications as effective references for businesses to leverage cloud computing.
