“I believe that cloud has now become more of an operating model. It started out in the public cloud, but now organizations have adopted the same philosophy of self-service, metering, chargeback, quick deployment, on-demand deployment, on-premises as well. So, my assertion is that cloud has become more of an operating model than a location. And what we’re going to see going forward more and more is this notion of multi-cloud and hybrid multi-cloud data platforms that would be able to access data from multiple locations and be able to provide on top of that, the analysis that the user is looking for.” – Monica Kumar
