2. The Cloud MSP Opportunity
Cloud computing technologies will radically reduce the IT investment costs that were once a barrier to market entry
for many sizes and types of businesses further expanding the cloud market beyond large enterprises to a broader
segment of organizations.
Market Opportunity
Cloud management services constitute a new segment comprising cloud security services, IT operations management
and storage management (including backup and recovery services). The segment is forecast to grow to $4 billion by
20141.
The global market for cloud computing technologies is growing at a CAGR of 24% over the next five years, with an
aggregate of over $300 Billion over that period.
ď‚· Gartner is predicting Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS), cloud management & security devices, and Platform-
as-a-Service (PaaS) are growing from $7.6B in 2011 to $36B in 2016, a CAGR of 36%2.
ď‚· The global Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) market is growing from $900M in 2011 to $2.9B in 2016, achieving a
26.6% CAGR. At this projected rate, PaaS will generate an average of $360M a year in revenue between 2011
and 2016. Gartner projects that the largest segments will be Application Platform Services (aPaaS) which
generated 35% of total PaaS spending in 2011, followed by cloud application lifecycle services (12.5%)3.
Solution Provider Landscape Snapshot
While there are approximately 200 providers providing cloud infrastructure management, monitoring, setup, and
optimization services in the USA4. Of these professional service firms the market is grouped into several tiers.
ď‚· Large IT consulting service providers which provide cloud solutions ($50 to $1B).
ď‚· Niche providers which focus primarily on cloud solutions (At least two dozen of these firms focus on Microsoft
Systems Center with revenues ranging from $1 to $50M).
The market is fragmented by skill as the technology requires a high degree of certification and competency across
multiple technologies and platforms.
o Split between ISVs, SIs, and regional providers.
o Disparate reseller, incentive, VAR models.
