From LogicMonitor’s global study, Cloud 2025, cloud deployment is accelerating in response to the current global pandemic with 74% of the respondents indicating 95% of workloads will be deployed to the cloud with all industries experiencing a shortage of cloud trained professionals.
Florida ranks 4th nationwide in net IT employment; 2nd in net IT jobs added last year; and 4th in the Cyberstates Innovation Score, based on venture capital investments, technology startups and new business formations and other factors and according to the Department of Labor for South East Florida, there were 2,453 unique job postings for cloud and related technology jobs in May 2020.
