Cloud zero-touch operations aim to automate and minimize human intervention in managing, implementing, and resolving cloud-related tasks. This approach offers various benefits, including improved efficiency, reduced errors, faster implementation, enhanced uptime, and better collaboration among teams. However, challenges include concerns about losing control, diminished cloudOps expertise, the need to balance automation with human oversight, potential technology dependencies, and high implementation costs. To succeed, companies must adopt a holistic approach, addressing industry-specific needs and prioritizing security and governance to fully harness the potential value of cloud zero-touch operations.
