Futuriom, an independent cloud technology analysis firm, named the strongest trends and companies driving the cloud market in 2022. Its new report featured CAST AI, a Kubernetes automation and optimization startup, as one of the strongest players in distributed cloud infrastructure. CAST AI’s platform was acknowledged for its potential to use AI to deliver cloud cost savings, DevOps automation, and disaster prevention.
Released for the second year in a row, Futuriom 40 Top Cloud Trends and Private Companies draws on extensive research involving end-user and vendor interviews and survey work. The report highlights forty venture-backed cloud, networking, and cybersecurity startups. According to the analyst, all listed companies have already raised $13.3 billion and have IPO potential over the next few years.
CAST AI appears in the Distributed Cloud Infrastructure theme alongside other players innovating cloud networking and distributed data workload automation. This field is quintessential as traditional enterprise networking architectures prove insufficient for connecting to multiple cloud applications and platforms.
According to Futuriom, “CAST AI has the right product at the right time, as organizations begin to weigh the cost of the public cloud and look for ways to optimize their cloud spending budgets.”
Apart from the most noteworthy private companies, the report discusses macro trends driving the investment in cloud technology. These themes include distributed cloud infrastructure, unified cloud, and cloud data management.
Cloud infrastructure technology continuously brings disruptions enabling users to achieve goals that were once unimaginable. From day one, we envisioned CAST AI to be a part of this change and power even more innovations. Becoming one of Futuriom’s 40 top cloud companies proves that this direction was right.
