“Worldwide end-user spending on public cloud services is forecast to grow 20.7% to total $591.8 billion in 2023, up from $490.3 billion in 2022, according to the latest forecast from Gartner, Inc. The increase spending brought the challenge of managing that expense. According to Asim Razzaq, this lack of visibility into cloud spending was a problem for most enterprise companies.”Â
“It’s not a new call to action that we need to do more to reduce our energy consumption. Corporations are starting to take action by implementing environmental, social and governance (ESG) programs. However, digital infrastructure is a huge contributor to energy utilization. The collective cloud now has a bigger carbon footprint than the airline industry. So, when enterprises are evaluating and managing cloud costs, they have to look beyond the economic costs and also consider the environmental cost and potential harm to the planet—they have a responsibility to use cloud services efficiently with zero waste.”Â
