STAMFORD, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
U.S. enterprises remain global leaders in cloud adoption, with many using multiple public cloud services as part of accelerating digital business transformation initiatives, according to a new research report published today by Information Services Group (ISG) (Nasdaq: III), a leading global technology research and advisory firm.
The 2022 ISG Provider Lens™ Public Cloud — Solutions and Services report for the U.S. finds that the overall cloud services market in the U.S. has grown by 50 percent since 2021. While this was only half the growth rate of the global market, there is an accelerating trend in the U.S. toward deep transformation of enterprise IT environments using cloud-native technologies.
“Cloud-native transformation is a high priority for U.S. companies,” said Bernie Hoecker, partner, Enterprise Cloud Transformation at ISG. “They are bypassing quick lift-and-shift migrations and instead completely re-architecting and re-factoring their applications.”
Enterprises that struggle with the high cost and complexity of maintaining their own IT infrastructure are investing in software-defined environments that take advantage of the compute resources, middleware and regular updates provided by hyperscale public cloud operators, the report says. The growing adoption of public clouds in 2022 has been driven in part by improved data security and the increased use of containerization and microservices for application development.
The market for hyperscale infrastructure and platform services in the U.S. is highly competitive, ISG says. The major providers, especially the top three — AWS, Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud — are developing new services and solutions for specific industries and technologies to differentiate themselves. However, most enterprises are not choosing a single cloud provider, but instead developing multi-cloud environments to avoid vendor lock-in, which can lead to high costs and interoperability problems.
“More enterprises are choosing multi-cloud approaches, because it expands their options as their needs evolve,” said Jan Erik Aase, partner and global leader, ISG Provider Lens Research. “Clients now negotiate usage prices, which is making the U.S. market even more competitive.”
Midsize enterprises in the U.S. are also increasingly focused on moving their workloads to the public cloud, the report says. They are turning to providers of consulting and transformation services as they take on new tasks such as assessing workloads, managing change and dealing with the uncertainties of infrastructure integration. Midmarket cloud adopters are also seeking managed services providers for potential cost savings over time.
The report also examines several other public cloud trends in the U.S., including the steady growth of the market for SAP HANA cloud infrastructure and the growing demand for FinOps tools to control, manage and optimize cloud expenses.
For more insights on the challenges U.S. companies are addressing with public cloud services, along with advice on the best ways to plan and carry out cloud migrations, see the ISG Provider Lens™ Focal Points briefing here.
The 2022 ISG Provider Lens™ Public Cloud — Solutions and Services report for the U.S. evaluates the capabilities of 56 providers across six quadrants: Consulting and Transformation Services for Large Accounts, Consulting and Transformation Services for Midmarket, Managed Public Cloud Services for Large Accounts, Managed Public Cloud Services for Midmarket, Hyperscale Infrastructure and Platform Services, and SAP HANA Infrastructure Services.
