Trends by Industry
The Industry Outlook IDC Forecasts Public IT Cloud Services Spending Will Reach $127
billion in 2018 as the Market Enters a Critical Innovation Stage
"Over the next three to four years, IDC
expects the community of developers to
triple and to create a ten-fold increase in the
number of new cloud-based solutions.
Many of these solutions will become more
strategic than traditional IT has ever
been.”
- Frank Gens, Senior Vice President and
Chief Analyst at IDC.
“As the number of applications and use
cases explode, cloud services will reach into
almost every B2B and consumer services
marketplace.” - IDC

The Business Case (Note that acquisition costs are a small part of overall TCO)
“ IT organizations are spending from 70-80% of
their total IT budgets on maintenance and
ongoing operations.
-- Forrester
“ For modern IT platforms, 30% of the total cost is the cost of
acquiring the equipment. The balance is for IT labor/services to
configure, maintain, upgrade, reconfigure, and ultimately
decommission the equipment. -- IDC
