Bengaluru: Driven by Pandemi, 2020 saw enormous growth in demand for global cloud roles.
India recorded a total of 380,000 job posts for the Role of Cloud, a 40% increase over 2019, a Nasscom report in partnership with Accenture and TCS had said.
India, he said, managed to close around 115,000 of the openings, leaving 265,000 unalled posts.
This big gap is expected to widen to 769,000 in the 2025 fiscal year, and it encourages Nasscom to further emphasize creating cloud talents.
The last few years have had a great emphasis on AI, and Nasscom held a conference focused on AI for the first time last year.
“Now, people say the cloud is more mainstream, this is a basic digital technology.
So, we held the first cloud conference,” Sangeeta Gupta, the Chief Strategy Officer in Nasscom, said.
The two-day virtual conference starts on Tuesday.
Sudden and massive improvement in long-distance work and remote transactions after the pandemic has made the organization realize that the premise of IT infrastructure cannot provide a type of agility and ability that can.
Cloud also allows various innovative business models.
“Cloud has moved from being a relative backend to front-end technology (facing), allowing access to requests to resources.
For India to engrave himself as a unique identity as a global hub for cloud solutions, concentrated public partnerships, and scale skills Large is the key, “said President Nasscom Debjani Ghosh.
