The cloud infrastructure service offerings accelerate Time-to-Market (TTM) and rapid application development and running processes. Moreover, the expanding need to decrease the operational costs and maintenance of the IT infrastructure also boosts several organizations' adoption of cloud infrastructure services.

Key Highlights

  • One of the primary factors fueling the growth of the cloud infrastructure services market is the increase in data quantities worldwide. The increased adoption of cloud-based technologies by customers to improve data security, integrity, and service delivery, as well as increasing internet penetration and smartphone adoption rates worldwide, all contribute to market growth.
  • Based on the service type, storage as a service, service type is expected to hold a larger market size during the forecast period. According to Eurostat, email services and file storage are the predominant uses for cloud computing in the EU, with 66% and 53%, respectively. Email management remains steady, while file storage purposes have increased by a whopping 15%. Other recent needs include hosting company databases, specifically virtual private server (VPS) hosting.
  • Increasing IaaS benefits are also providing ample opportunities for the growth of the market. Principal providers, including Microsoft, are quickly moving their solutions to cloud-associated models such as Dynamics 365. Office 365, and Windows as a Service, to name a few. Overall, cloud growth is propelled not only by the development of IaaS but is also being encouraged by three talented cloud players, including Google, Microsoft, and IBM.
  • However, global cloud infrastructure services face a few challenges, including high bandwidth costs, frequent monitoring and control, security concerns, unwillingness to retreat controls, and performance management in case of a slow cloud provider network.
  • Due to COVID-19, cloud infrastructure services and support services have been affected globally. The current crisis due to the pandemic may see work volume increase for many of the contracts in the short term as firms need to use service partners to support home working arrangements, which could boost the market.

Cloud Infrastructure Services Market Trends

Public Cloud Holds a Dominant Market Share

  • The public cloud-based deployment model sees growing demand due to its cost-effectiveness and easy availability. The public cloud is based on the cloud computing model, which shares resources (such as CPU, servers, and racks) among several businesses depending on their demand.
  • Public cloud-based solutions need fewer physical setups and low maintenance and provide 24/7 accessibility from any time, anywhere. Due to various benefits of public clouds, such as scalability, reliability, flexibility, utility-style costing, and location independence services, public cloud-based deployments are expected to record a high growth rate.
