What is a Cloud Advisor?

Cloud advisors are an emerging and relatively new type of cloud professional. Cloud advisors are individuals who have a high degree of proficiency with regard to cloud technologies and services and can operate as an advisor to senior management, board members, or other stakeholders on various cloud-related initiatives. For the purposes of this article, we will use the term “cloud advisor” to refer to someone who has extensive knowledge and experience working with cloud computing services and related technologies. A cloud advisor may not operate exclusively as a “consultant” advising others on how they should adopt, implement or utilize the cloud. However, their expertise as a cloud professional may make them an ideal person from which to seek advice in regards to these types of issues.
