Analyst Perspective

The cloud computing market has witnessed significant growth in recent years, driven by the growing adoption of cloud computing among industries such as BFSI, IT, healthcare, government, and media. Growing implementation of 5G networks and technologies is boosting the cloud computing market growth during the forecast period. Rising digital transformation across the business and increasing mobile network adoption are anticipated to boost the market. Moreover, technological advancement, the growing use of IoT-connected devices, and the incorporation of artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and big data technologies are creating opportunities in the market. However, increasing private and government investments in the adoption of cloud technologies are generating significant market growth opportunities during the forecast period.

Market Overview

Cloud computing refers to the on-demand delivery of IT services over the Internet at a pay-per-use (P2P) rate. Cloud computing allows the user to access technology services such as computing, storing, software, analytics, networking, intelligence, and databases. The technology offers significant benefits to the user including agility, cost-saving, elasticity, and productivity, among others, which increases its adoption among businesses across the globe. Cloud computing has become a crucial part of modern business operations due to its versatility, which has increased its rapid adoption across various industries, including BFSI, IT, healthcare, and others. Growing adoption of cloud storage services like Microsoft Azure Blob Storage, Amazon S3, and Google Cloud Storage drives the cloud computing market. These storage services provide security and scalability for storing all types, including documents, files, videos, and images, by eliminating the need for businesses to invest in on-premises storage infrastructure. These factors are anticipated to drive the cloud computing market during the forecast period.

Market Driver

Growing Adoption of Cloud Technologies Among Businesses is Driving the Market

The increasing integration of cloud technologies across business operations is a pivotal factor fueling the growth of the global cloud computing market. Organizations across sectors are embracing digital transformation initiatives to enhance agility, scalability, and operational efficiency. Central to these efforts is the transition from traditional IT infrastructures to cloud-based environments. This shift enables enterprises to modernize legacy systems, streamline internal workflows, and support remote and hybrid work models. Cloud computing serves as a foundational enabler of next-generation digital services, offering embedded intelligence, seamless connectivity, and the flexibility to adapt to rapidly changing business needs. Unlike conventional models that rely heavily on physical infrastructure, cloud platforms offer scalable solutions that include Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS), Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS), and Software-as-a-Service (SaaS). These services facilitate the automation of business processes, enhance cybersecurity protocols, and ensure business continuity through advanced data backup and disaster recovery systems. Businesses are increasingly leveraging multi-cloud and hybrid cloud strategies to optimize performance, manage costs, and ensure data sovereignty. Large enterprises, in particular, are adopting cloud-native architectures to support cross-functional teams, centralize data access, and manage complex workloads across geographically dispersed locations. According to the Flexera 2023 State of the Cloud Report, 75% of enterprises reported using Microsoft Azure, followed closely by Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Google Cloud, highlighting a competitive and mature cloud ecosystem. Moreover, partnerships and collaborations are further accelerating cloud adoption. For example, in February 2022, TecCentric and OmniClouds partnered to help businesses modernize their legacy internet infrastructure and migrate to cloud-based network systems, offering increased reliability and performance. Continued advancements in AI integration, edge computing, and serverless architectures are expected to reinforce the strategic importance of cloud computing. As companies seek to remain competitive and resilient in an increasingly digital economy, cloud adoption will remain a core driver of innovation, cost efficiency, and business agility.

Segmental Analysis

Based on deployment, the cloud computing market is segmented into public cloud, private cloud, and hybrid cloud. The hybrid cloud segment is projected to expand during the forecast period due to increased adoption among businesses across the globe. Hybrid cloud is an IT architecture that allows organizations to take advantage of and benefit from private and public clouds, such as incorporating workload portability, orchestration, and managing two or more environments. Hybrid cloud provides combined benefits of private and public clouds, including greater flexibility, scalability, and optimization of resources, which increases its adoption among businesses and drives the market. A hybrid cloud enables organizations to move applications and workloads between private and public clouds based on specific needs. This flexibility is valuable for managing different demands by optimizing business costs and fueling segment growth. A hybrid cloud provides the capability to have redundant and backup systems across different environments. In case of a failure or disaster in one location, workloads can be shifted to another environment, ensuring business continuity drives the market. A hybrid cloud allows organizations to optimize costs by choosing the most cost-effective platform for each workload. It also enables a pay-as-you-go model for resources consumed from public clouds, increasing business adoption.

Regional Analysis:

The market in Asia Pacific is expected to dominate in the near future owing to the growing adoption of advanced technologies such as AI, 5G, IoT, and edge computing across industries that drive the cloud computing market. Rising population, increasing government support, and growing investment from private sectors increase the adoption of new technologies by fueling the market. Moreover, growing adoption of public cloud services bolsters the cloud computing market in the region.

Many countries are implementing cloud computing technologies across industries such as BFSI, healthcare, education, manufacturing, and retail. For instance, in September 2022, Google LLC partnered with the National Association of Software and Service Companies (NASSCOM) to launch new cloud computing courses in India. This partnership increases demand for cloud computing in the educational industry and allows students to learn various advanced technology concepts including cloud basics, cloud computing, machine learning, and big data. The cloud computing market in Japan is projected to expand at a significant CAGR during the forecast period, development in the ICT sector and rising adoption of advanced technologies such as SDN, AI, IoT, and LTE. Expanding public cloud technologies encourage enterprises to shift their core applications to the cloud platform, which drives the market. Australia's cloud computing market is expected to grow soon due to increasing government support for adopting cloud-based technologies. The availability of cutting-edge and dependable cloud infrastructure is boosting the market in Australia. Most MSPs in Australia are assisting businesses in navigating different cloud options and moving their current workloads across several cloud environments, contributing to the adopting of the multi-cloud strategy in the country.
