IaaS and PaaS Revenues Growing at 65% per Year
RENO, NV, Dec 11, 2012 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) --
New data from Synergy Research Group shows that service provider
revenues from IaaS and PaaS topped $2.75 billion in the first half of
the year, having grown by 65% from the same period last year. It is
particularly noteworthy that IaaS and PaaS share of the total
infrastructure market has grown from 6% in late 2010 to 12% currently
(the total market comprising managed hosting, colocation, CDN/ADN,
IaaS and PaaS). There is enormous potential for future IaaS growth as
the managed hosting services market migrates to cloud-based service
offerings.
Amazon continues to be a clear leader in IaaS with a 34% share of the
worldwide market; it is also second ranked in PaaS behind
salesforce.com, which accounts for 21% of the worldwide market.
Meanwhile, managed hosting and colocation are very fragmented markets
with a multitude of service providers. Rackspace maintains a narrow
lead in managed hosting, followed closely by a slew of traditional
telcos and IT service providers -- none of which has more than a 5%
market share. The chasing group includes Verizon, NTT, British
Telecom, IBM, France Telecom-Orange, SingTel and China Telecom.
Equinix is the clear leader in colocation with an 11% market share,
but it too is followed by a long list of telcos, IT service providers
and colocation specialists. Akamai and Level 3 lead the charge in
CDN/ADN, together accounting for 44% of the total market.
"We are in the early days of a profound shift in the data center
market towards cloud infrastructure services, which presents
extremely exciting growth opportunities for emerging cloud providers
and traditional service providers the world over," says Jeremy Duke,
Synergy Research Group's founder and Chief Analyst. "Amazon has
clearly demonstrated first mover advantage and built a strong cloud
provider position, driving the IaaS market and lighting a fire under
traditional telcos which are seeking to play catch up, often via M&A
and partnership activity."
