Today cloud solutions cease to be an option, but are the standard. In the Polish IT, Azure and AWS continue to lead the way in the cloud provider category, as this year's report confirms. Given that these are the leaders who, along with Google, are most often featured in projects, the survey results are no surprise.

Cloud technologies take up the top three spots in every category listed in this year's report. This case shows that the majority of IT professionals surveyed work and/or interact with the cloud in their daily work. At Luxoft Poland, we are running projects all the time for our clients that use various cloud providers, and often hybrid solutions.

Comparing the latest report with the previous years' results, we can say for sure cloud solutions are among the IT technologies that are growing the fastest.
