The landscape of cloud computing has significantly changed over the last decade. Not only have more providers and service offerings crowded the space, but also cloud infrastructure that was traditionally limited to single provider data centers is now evolving. In this paper, we firstly discuss the changing cloud infrastructure and consider the use of infrastructure from multiple providers and the benefit of decentralising computing away from data centers. These trends have resulted in the need for a variety of new computing architectures that will be offered by future cloud infrastructure. These architectures are anticipated to impact areas, such as connecting people and devices, data-intensive computing, the service space and self-learning systems. Finally, we lay out a roadmap of challenges that will need to be addressed for realising the potential of next generation cloud systems. Distributed cloud infrastructure will make use of the network edge in the future.Two tier applications will be replaced by new multi-tier cloud architectures.Next generation cloud computing impacts both societal and scientific avenues.A new marketplace will need to be developed for resources at the network edge.Security and sustainability are key to architecting future cloud systems.
