Resumo: | Purpose – The main objective of this paper is to analyze the potential impact of future cloud computing trends on business, from the perspective of specialists in the area. Design/ methodology/ approach - Qualitative approach that includes literature review and nine semi-structured interviews with proclaimed influencers and global thought leaders in cloud computing, highlighting Jeff Barr, Vice President of Amazon Web Services. Findings -5G networks will enable the emergence of the Edge-CoT architecture, that will consequently drive the increased application of Artificial Intelligence/ Machine Learning (AI/ML) and Robotics. The combination of Edge-CoT, Robotics and AI/ML triggers the development of Smart Cities and Industry 4.0. Simultaneously, Cloud alone will benefit of increased connectivity and will be the preferred business architecture comparing to EdgeCoT. New industries and businesses will result from the Edge-CoT, and the existing companies will benefit mainly from an improved customer experience. Major business challenges triggered by Edge-CoT include workforce re-skilling, promotion of the agile approach and a cultural shift towards risk-taking. Research limitations/implications - The research study was limited to the analysis of a selected set of cloud computing trends. Moreover, the data collection process was limited to 9 cloud experts, hindering a possible generalization. Originality/value – This study uses a qualitative approach to listen to market experts and cross with the theoretical findings to date, consequently bringing theory and practice closer together. |

Metodologia- Abordagem qualitativa que engloba revisão de literatura e nove entrevistas semiestruturadas com proclamados influencers e lideres globais em cloud computing, destacando-se Jeff Barr, o Vice-presidente da Amazon Web Services. Resultado - As redes 5G possibilitarão o surgimento da arquitetura Edge-CoT, que consequentemente impulsionará o aumento da aplicação de Inteligência Artificial (AI) e robótica. A combinação de Edge-CoT, Robótica e AI desencadeia o desenvolvimento de Smart Cities e Industry 4.0. Simultaneamente, a Cloud sozinha beneficiará do aumento da conectividade e será a arquitetura preferida comparativamente a Edge-CoT. Novos setores e negócios resultarão do Edge-CoT, e as empresas existentes beneficiarão principalmente de uma melhor experiência do cliente. Os principais desafios organizacionais desencadeados pelo Edge-CoT incluem a requalificação da força de trabalho, a adoção da abordagem agile e uma mudança cultural que estimule experimentos tecnológicos. Restrição da pesquisa - O processo de recolha de dados foi limitado a 9 especialistas em cloud computing, dificultando assim uma possível generalização. Originalidade/ Valor - Este estudo utiliza uma abordagem qualitativa para ouvir os especialistas do mercado e cruzar com os resultados teóricos até o momento, aproximando assim a teoria da prática.2021-03-08T11:39:52Z2021-01-22T00:00:00Z2021-01-222020-11info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10071/22309TID:202661458engKoltyukova, Veronikainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2023-11-09T17:49:50Zoai:repositorio.iscte-iul.pt:10071/22309Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T22:24:31.393533Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse |
