The public cloud today handles $200 billion in annual technology spend. Despite being one of the most complex licensing ecosystems ever made, over 95% of this spending is still managed with a credit card and a spreadsheet. With the AI boom poised to supercharge this category to over $1 trillion by 2030, the need for better tools has never been greater. Visit North.Cloud for more information.
