Lots of engineers. This is quite a storm cloud. This will give CFO’s a lot of clout. Many contractors will be let go. Also lots of third party suppliers software licenses will be cut by tech companies and every possible tech overhead cost. Fixed cloud costs will be cut by on-siting on-prem clouds. If they can’t meet payroll 18 months out this will happen.
My authority? BSCS, MSIS plus decades in the industry.
