3) Cloud Migration Engineer

A lot said and done about cloud computing, but now companies investing heavily in the cloud data storage are facing troubles of different kinds. Cloud came with many pros attached but with cons not so far behind. Cloud computing makes IT excessively dependent on the Internet but improved time to application development.

But markets are still experiencing growing pains and cost advantage of public cloud offering is still not clear. Mixed response from company’s who have accepted cloud offerings for their features, security and stability might soon start feeling frustrated over the services providers. Network bandwidth may soon become a bottleneck with some services.

As soon as the hype around cloud computing starts wearing off and with multiple options available, companies will start treating their service providers as vendors and hunt for other others who can grant higher services. When they are not happy with one vendor, they’ll take businesses to others.

Now cloud integration specialists have a major role to play when data is moved from one cloud to another more mature cloud storage service. Knowing ins and outs of various cloud vendors APIs, SLAs, services, and supported technologies will be a boon to companies who plan to switch service providers in a hurry.
