In today's Cloud Wars Minute, I explain how AWS is using AI-driven automation to reduce technical debt and free up budgets for innovation. Highlights 00:03 - As the AI Revolution has kicked into full swing this year, we've heard a lot of stories - interesting ones - about companies blowing through their AI budgets because everybody loves this stuff; everybody wants to use it. That brings up this notion of technical debt. 00:46 - AWS has introduced an autonomous tool that's primary job is to slay the technical debt monster that is grinding up so much of so many companies' IT budgets and limiting their abilities to do the things going forward that they need to do. It said it consumes 30% of IT budgets, and this is a staggering number. 01:51 - This party that's been going on here now - the big AI kegger during the AI Revolution - is going to come to an end. And what always follows those parties is a hangover. That hangover is going to be centered on technical debt, budgets, and money decisions that have to be made.
