Cloud computing adoption among medium to large
enterprises is now widespread
Cloud segments have demographic trends
Cloud model preferences and vendors vary by segment
Project priorities vary by segment
Enterprises will rapidly deploy more cloud solution in coming
year
Pros use every type of cloud, with most common being public cloud (91%) & least common is hybrid (45%); Pioneers use internal private cloud (56%) & PaaS (46%); 83% of Pros use AWS data center, contrasted with 28% of Pioneers, who mostly use traditional IBM & Verizon.
Nearly 90% of responding enterprises use of plan to use some type of cloud computing solution; the market is comprise d of 19% Cloud Pros who have multiple clouds, 59% Pioneers who use or test a cloud, 12% Planners who intend to deploy and 10% Stragglers who have no plans.
Cloud Pros and Pioneers tend to be very large enterprises in banking/finance, manufacturing, higher education, or business services; while Planners and Stragglers are smaller and in government, healthcare and heavy industries.
Cloud Pros implement network-related projects to prepare for Cloud and Pioneers improve storage and security. About or greater than 70% of Pros add LAN bandwidth, WAN bandwidth and WAN optimization, while about 70% of Pioneers add SANs, NAS and encryption.
Percentage of IT in the cloud estimates are slightly higher in 2012 than in 2011. Pros expect to increase cloud as a percentage of IT from about 28% to 38% in the next 3 years, while Pioneers hope to more than doubles its percent of IT in the cloud from nearly 15% to 33%.

“Enterprise customer segment is finally seeing revenue increases even without any lift from the economy– its first…in more than four years. The growth was small, but still a positive trend.” AT&T, July 24, 2012 “Legacy Savvis…year-over-year increases of 11.5% in managed hosting and cloud services revenues and a modest increase in network services revenues.” CenturyLink, Aug. 10, 2012 “Cloud infrastructure solutions growth, accelerated to 22% year-over-year, made up 58% of our total revenue. And in terms of brand-new customers to Akamai, over 75% purchased a cloud infrastructure solution.” Akamai, July 25, 2012
Many tech segments benefit
“Revenue was up 34% over last year, for the 6th consecutive quarter of year-over-year revenue growth in the mid-30% range. There's no other enterprise software company of our scale growing at this rate.” Salesforce.com, July 24, 2012 “Overall, the Data Center & Cloud business had a strong first half of 2012, up 25% through midyear. Within our SaaS business, revenue was up 18% from last year. Our collaboration and data sharing products, which account for over half of the total SaaS revenue, increased 33%.” Citrix, July 25, 2012 “Dedicated cloud revenue increased…representing 4.1% sequential growth & 21% growth on a year-over-year basis. Public revenue cloud…12.1% sequential growth & 69% growth on a year-over-year basis..” Rackspace, August 7, 2012
“We doubled last year’s revenue, with contribution from all areas, private cloud, public cloud and our industry-based solutions.” IBM, July 18, 2012 “Demand continues to grow for cloud solutions, for application re-platforming and also for new software-as-a-service solutions from both the established technology players, as well as from newer SaaS providers.” Accenture, June 28, 2012
With more than 100 large enterprise customers, Cloudstack was contributed to the Apache software foundation which runs some of most successful open-source cloud projects. eBay announced they use OpenStack to manage a high-volume dev, test and experimentation environment where apps are created for eBay marketplaces.

Hardware landscape changing, but data center and storage provide bright spots
“Overall switching revenues flat this quarter… with fixed switching up 3% and modular switching down 7%...Routing growing revenues 4% year-over-year while many of our peers are experiencing negative growth... Data center business had strong growth with revenues up 87%.”
Cisco, August 15th, 2012
“On a less positive note, the mainstream server market continues to show weakness…. Turning to Enterprise Servers, Storage and Networking. Revenue of $5.1 billion was down 4% year-over-year. Storage, the continued strong performance of 3PAR, with more than 60% growth, and StoreOnce, with double-digit growth, did not offset the decline in EVA and Tape revenue. ”

• Goal: Understand broad enterprise migration-to-the cloud trends and the channel to customer
• Random sample drawn from Winn Enterprise/mid Market DB that included high-level IT decision-makers (Senior Managers, Directors, and VPs)
• Primary research data collection methodology collected by Winn Q2/Q3 2012 by using a telephone survey, supplemented by e-survey, landing page provided to provide respondents the ability to answer via Web, and incentives to increase response rates
• Sample size = 96; weighted to present distribution of US companies greater than 500 employees
• Using only SaaS alone not considered a cloud user or planner; they had to use another cloud service model and must actually have IT staff working on it
• Update from 2011 “Five Key Themes on Enterprise Cloud Migration”
