TIFCA’s Client-to-Cloud Ecosystem Report
The Client-to-Cloud Revolution
TIFCA and its membership are enabling a world of any place, any time, and any device user experiences that are delivered through a create-once reach-all ecosystem. This world will be driven by a robust client-cloud ecosystem that makes it possible for users and creators to do new and amazing things.
The journey to this future is the Client-to-Cloud Revolution, and it will enhance the user experiences of PC, console, Smart TV, immersive technology, mobile and more.
TIFCA is collaborating with leaders in compute, network architecture and telecommunications, immersive technology, innovative content and applications, and other ecosystem sectors that are equally excited about enabling this new computing era.
The Client-Cloud Ecosystem Report
In November, 2019, TIFCA held its inaugural International Future Computing Summit in Mountain View, California to gather roadmap level ecosystem and go through a self-discovery process of where computing is headed.
In December, we launched a questionnaire to determine if TIFCA’s direction is correct, to reaffirm our short-term objectives, and to get a sense of how urgent it is that we pursue this Client-to-Cloud Revolution both as an organization and as an industry.
This report details our results and what we learned from them.
