>From my perspective I need UEFI for IoT, we use the same tool that is
used to create the cloud image to create the IoT images, which has a
number of x86 devices that require UEFI and secure-boot.

>From a cloud perspective there's a number of VM/cloud options that use
UEFI, and in some cases even default to UEFI, partially because most
modern HW only supports it so people expect their virt platforms to
follow. We now also support secure-boot on VMs on Fedora which needs a
UEFI virt firmware (edk2-ovmf) but it would work OOTB on any virt
devices with this (presumably RHEL has this too) such as
libvirt/openstack/Ovirt etc.
