The ability to use on-demand, scalable cloud models to achieve cost efficiency and business continuity is providing the impetus for organizations to rapidly accelerate their digital business transformation plans. The increased use of public cloud services has reinforced cloud adoption to be the \u2018new normal,\u2019 now more than ever.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Cloud adoption in 2021 will be driven in part by support for cloud-native technologies like containers, Kubernetes and serverless computing.  Cloud-first app development is expected to dominate going forward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Also contributing to a move away from on-premise, and parallel to the cloud, edge computing is also expected to grow rapidly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Forrester <a href=\"https:\/\/www.crn.com\/news\/cloud\/10-future-cloud-computing-trends-to-watch-in-2021\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.crn.com\/news\/cloud\/10-future-cloud-computing-trends-to-watch-in-2021\">said that<\/a> &#8220;over the next three years, buyers will shift their cloud strategies toward the edge to capture all this innovation and become more connected. While public clouds will play a part, we do not think they will dominate, as their culture is based on massive data centers and tight control of the architecture &#8212; the exact opposite of what firms need to serve customers locally.&#8221;<\/p>\n<div class=\"lightsocial_container\"><div class=\"lightsocial_element\"><a class=\"lightsocial_a\"
