Understanding Ai-Native Cloud: From Microservices To Model-Serving
Infoworld, Monday, December 29th, 2025
Traditional cloud architectures are buckling under the weight of generative AI. To move from pilots to production, enterprises must adopt a 'design-first' architecture that treats intelligence as a core utility.
Cloud computing has fundamentally transformed the way enterprises operate. Initially built for more basic, everyday computing tasks, its capabilities have expanded exponentially with the advent of new technologies (such as machine learning and analytics).
But AI - particularly generative AI and the emerging class of AI agents - presents all-new challenges for cloud architectures. It is resource-hungry, demands ultra-fast latency, and requires new compute pathways and data access. These capabilities can't simply be bolted on to existing cloud infrastructures.
