Among enterprise survey respondents, the top drivers for cloud adoption are performance, agility, scalability, and cost reduction. The mix of cloud services is changing — Platform-as-a-service (PaaS) and cloud-as-a-service (CaaS) have the largest increases in adoption between 2013 and 2015.
“Hybrid cloud is the next evolution in cloud architecture, with adoption among enterprises expected to more than double by 2015,” notes Cliff Grossner, directing analyst at Infonetics Research.
