Abstract

This IDC study identifies the variety of cloud-related (i.e., "whole cloud") opportunities available for the 2021–2025 period, including, but encompassing, much more than the public cloud services market.

"In today's digital-first world, business outcomes and innovation are increasingly tied to the ability to develop and use innovative technologies and services anywhere, as quickly as possible. Cloud is the foundation for meeting this need. Spending on cloud services, the hardware and software components underpinning the cloud supply chain, and the professional and managed services opportunities around cloud services will surpass $1.3 trillion in 2025." — Rick Villars, group vice president, Worldwide Research at IDC
