Change is afoot. The private, public and third sector are transitioning from on-premises and datacenter-hosted infrastructure to hybrid architectures utilizing software-as-a-service (SaaS) and infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) hosted on a variety of cloud platforms. The pivot towards cloud infrastructure providers is unsurprising given the benefits of increased scalability and flexibility of deployment and a more attractive pay-as-you-go pricing model versus on-premises deployments. As a result, companies are increasingly wanting to hire people with the skills to manage and secure this new type of infrastructure.
