At the VK Cloud Nomad Fest technology festival, Kasym Yesergapov, CEO of QazCloud, delivered an overview of the key stages in the development of IT infrastructure — from local racks and the first data centers to the modern cloud and hybrid approach.

We are no longer just IT-dependent — we are becoming energy-dependent. The real competition is now for energy.

He emphasized that AI is changing not only the approach to working with data but also the requirements for data centers. Energy consumption, scalability speed, and resilience to risks are all coming to the forefront. In the future, we can expect a close merger of cloud and energy companies, as is already happening among global industry leaders.

Also, as part of the festival, a panel session titled "From Idea to Product" took place, where experts discussed modern IT solution architecture, challenges in cybersecurity, and the role of infrastructure in digital transformation. Participants noted the importance of flexibility, local adaptation, and interaction between business and technology.

VK Cloud Nomad Fest confirmed its status as a key platform for discussing the future of IT and shaping Kazakhstan's digital ecosystem.
