Episode 17 — Emerging Cloud Services — IoT, Serverless, and AI/ML Workloads

This episode covers emerging technologies that are increasingly shaping cloud environments and exam content. We start with the Internet of Things (IoT), explaining how connected devices generate, transmit, and process massive data streams in cloud platforms. Serverless computing is discussed in terms of scalability, operational simplicity, and how it enables event-based processing without infrastructure concerns. Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) workloads are also covered, with a focus on how cloud providers offer pre-built services and APIs for model training, inference, and data analysis.We link these emerging services to real-world use cases such as predictive analytics, smart automation, and sensor-based monitoring, highlighting design considerations like latency, bandwidth, and data governance. Understanding these services helps you anticipate how future cloud trends may affect both technical strategy and career skills.
