Global Cloud Computing Market Scope:

Service analysis

In 2021, Software as a Service (SaaS), accounted for a 55.1% revenue share. SaaS’s flexibility, ease of maintenance, and deployment are the reasons for high demand. According to industry estimates, 74.01% of enterprises have moved most of their applications to the SaaS platform. Remote work has led to a rise in the demand for SaaS services, which allow collaborative teams to access previously centralized data and analysis.

SaaS products will see strong growth over the next years, as their Total Cost of Owning (TCO), will be the same as that of on-premise deployment models. Over the forecast period, SaaS segment growth will be accelerated by increasing demand for SaaS delivery models and the increasing number of cloud-based businesses in the cloud computing market.

SaaS offers organizations more flexibility, options, and the ability to access the program remotely via web-based subscriptions. SaaS is a delivery model that focuses on software solutions that can reach many people.

Deployment analysis

With a share of more than 47.2% in the cloud computing market, the private deployment segment was at the top of this market over a private network or the internet, private clouds provide computer services. They are not accessible to the general public, but rather to a small number of individuals.

It offers many advantages to enterprises such as self-service and scalability. Further customizations and controls are also available on-premise. Private clouds offer third-party providers greater privacy and security by using internal hosting and firewalls that ensure high-level data protection.

Hybrid deployment, which includes both public and private models, will see a significant growth rate during the forecast period. The hybrid model is the most popular implementation model across industries.

Many firms are increasingly focusing their efforts on hybrid cloud models and smart ways to improve business operations, resource utilization, cost optimization, user experience, application modernization, and maximize the benefits. The most important force expected to accelerate the adoption of the hybrid cloud model in enterprises around the globe is edge computing.

Enterprise Size analysis

In 2021, the largest market share was held by large enterprises at 52.6%. Demand is driven by lower operating costs, better collaboration, greater flexibility, and faster time to market. Cloud computing allows companies to delegate repetitive work to technology that can complete them quicker.

Cloud computing is expected to grow in popularity as more companies use it to streamline their operations. The projected growth in the number of large enterprises in both established and emerging countries will drive demand for cloud computing services.

Over the forecast period, the fastest-growing segment will be the Small and Medium Enterprises segment (SMEs). This is due to the increasing number of SMEs in emerging countries like India and China. The cloud computing market will continue to grow due to a rise in demand for cloud computing services by SMEs to improve workflow and lower operational costs.

Cloud computing helps SMEs to reduce costs, eliminate repetitive operations, prioritize work and improve team collaboration. These benefits are expected to increase the adoption of cloud computing within this segment over the next few years.

End-use analysis

In 2021, the BFSI segment had the highest revenue share at over 26.4%. Online banking has increased in the BFSI sector, which has led moneylenders and banks to embrace digital transformation. Cloud computing plays a crucial role in this process.

Cloud computing has allowed firms to reduce expenses, increase innovation, strengthen client relationships, and increase flexibility within the BFSI sector. The COVID-19 epidemic has changed the way people communicate and do business.

Cloud services are being used to store and manage consumer data. BFSI will continue to see a significant role in the development of cloud services. This includes digital wallets, online funds transfers, payment gateways, and a unified customer experience.

Cloud services are expected to be adopted by the manufacturing sector as they offer benefits like seamless data management and real-time visibility in the cloud computing market.

The cloud service model is poised to provide significant value for manufacturers, as it incorporates advanced technologies like sensors, AI and ML, big-data analytics, IoT, and big data analytics.

The manufacturing sector also uses computing services to plan enterprise resources, manage supply chain management, and store information related to enterprise manufacturing. Cloud computing services are a great way to share, analyze, and access large amounts of information in the manufacturing sector.

Cloud computing services can also be used to improve business agility, innovation, business focus, and scale, as well as cost savings.
