Cloud and Generative AI: A Synergistic Future

Generative AI is revolutionizing cloud computing. It's optimizing infrastructure, driving cost savings, and enabling new AI solutions. Cloud providers are investing in AI-optimized hardware and offering pre-built AI solutions. However, challenges like data security, bias, and sustainability need addressing. Nasscom’s report titled Cloud & Generative AI- A Synergistic Future, talks about the significant impact of Generative AI on cloud infrastructure and security, the 2024 Nasscom State of Cloud Adoption survey takeaways in terms of enterprise adoption and cloud provider support needed. The future holds immense potential for AI-powered cloud innovations, requiring collaboration and responsible development.

Key Highlights

  1. Massive acceleration in Generative AI spend, spurring complete reshape of cloud infrastructure
    • According to McKinsey & Co, in 2023 enterprises spent nearly $15 billion on Generative AI, representing 2% of overall software spends, which is expected to be around 10% in 4-5 years
    • 2022-24 witnessed a rapid evolution in cloud platforms, hardware, APIs, and creative applications fueled by innovations as Generative AI took center stage
  2. 100+ companies in India’s cloud ecosystem are leveraging Generative AI through partnerships
    • Cloud infrastructure providers are teaming up with AI hardware vendors and large language model (LLM) providers, collaborating with global players or nurturing domestic startups.
