Cloud Computing
Cloud Computing platforms and applications are proliferating across Enterprises today, serving as the IT Infrastructure driving new digital businesses. Cloud Computing and forecasts and market estimates reflect a maturing Global market for Cloud Services, with proven scale, speed and security to support new business models.
The global cloud computing market was valued at USD 483.98 billion in 2022 and is expected to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 14.1% from 2023 to 2030. The market is expected to witness growth due to factors, such as the functional ability of cloud computing to improve business performance in large enterprises, the rising need for hybrid models & Omni-cloud systems and pay-as-you-go models. In addition, as businesses need to improve their digital activities, cloud services have increased in popularity in various developing countries. Various activities by governments to protect data integrity and safety are also contributing to the growth of the industry. In addition, the COVID-19 pandemic has led to an increase in the adoption of hybrid work models and cloud computing generally.
Other areas of growth have been in Enterprises purchasing for Public Cloud, AWS, Azure, Google or Oracle, OCI or implementing a Hybrid model. There also has been a significant growth in IaaS, Infrastructure as a Services and Platform as a Service. (PaaS) providers to host their own software as a SaaS or multiple vendors integrated into this.
The 5 main areas of Cloud are SaaS (Software as a Service), IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service), Middleware/PaaS (Platform as a Service) and DaaS (Data Warehousing as a Service) to host and store the Data. Also, BPaaS (Cloud Business Process Services) – Business Process as a Service. What’s behind the explosion in cloud is a change in the way that companies are buying their computing. Computing as a Service has become a reality, where you pay for only the computing that you need and where resources are instantly scalable. Hosting and Cloud Services as a whole are being driven by many forces such as Digital Transformation for eCommerce, mCommerce, Multi-channel solutions, Social Media, Enterprise Globalisation and mass demands for faster transactions, more secure data, ETL and business intelligence and management information or data analytics at a click of an icon.
In addition, now that Communications functionality is being delivered across private, public and hybrid clouds, we have Communications as a Service (CaaS). As traditional on-premise Communications hardware platforms are replaced by VoIP software, hosted and managed services models, it has become a data centre responsibility, so the world is no longer divided between IT and Telecoms; today, it’s all about ICT and Unified Comms & Contact Centres provided as a SaaS so Contact Centre as a Service, CCaaS and so much more for the CX being key to every business’s success. Now using AI and ML for a faster service and deeper knowledge.
