With the caveat that intentions often do not match actual behavior, large enterprise professionals who are heavy cloud computing customers have post-Covid-19 priorities that have changed from pre-Covid levels. You would not be surprised if effort to support remote work had increased, for example.
But the differences, while showing some shifts, do not appear to have changed key priorities, or even the relative importance of various objectives. And since budgets and effort are essentially a zero-sum game, increased effort in some areas is matched by decreased effort in other areas.
The survey included 100-plus cloud-focused information technology directors at companies with at least $500 million in annual sales and IT budgets of at least $50 million per year, from many industries including technology, financial services, manufacturing, retail, oil and gas, life sciences, consumer packaged goods and media and entertainment, all using at least two different cloud platforms.
The point is simply that post-Covid behavior might not change as much as many now anticipate.
