Distributed cloud enables decentralized cloud resources and services to be physically closer to the data source or user while still being managed centrally. A new white paper from ClearPath Strategies, commissioned by Akamai, reveals that distributed cloud computing is becoming mission-critical for the global IT leaders surveyed for this report. Findings include:
- Over one-third of tech leaders say distributed cloud computing offers flexibility in scaling at different geographical locations
- More than 40% of tech leaders recognize the potential advantages of distributed cloud for real-time apps, such as gaming and financial transactions
