Cloud Cost Optimization  

With the rise in adoption of cloud and cloud-based applications due to more remote work comes concerns around cost. And while cloud cost concerns have always existed, it will be a more visible problem as more businesses move to the cloud and deploy cloud tools, in some cases, overnight.

Cloud can become expensive fast if it's not being optimized. That's why many companies will be looking for cost optimization services, said Brad Hass, engineering director, DevOps, for solution provider giant Presidio. Job tasks around cloud cost analysis and optimization will likely pop up as a result of the pandemic, but cloud cost optimization will likely be a part of a process, rather than a single job role, Hass added.
