Rise of Private Cloud

Private Cloud Market Prediction:

There was a big acceleration in vendor investment in private cloud products and services in 2012

Many public cloud providers embraced private:  Amazon Web Services (AWS, the grand-daddy of IaaS) formed a partnership with Eucalyptus for an API-compatible private cloud, Rackspace announced its private OpenStack cloud initiative, VMware launched its vCloud Suite to provide an integrated cloud infrastructure, and OpenStack announced a wide array of distributions targeted at private cloud dollars

 

Based on TechTarget's Data Center and Readers' Choice Survey 2013 : who said they plan to deploy a private cloud within the next 12 months: 15.5% of the 627 total respondents said they planned a private cloud deployment in 2013, as opposed to 8.2% in 2012. Public cloud interest rose only slightly, from 4.1% to 4.5%.

 Private cloud market will rise from $7.8 billion in 2011 to $15.9 billion in 2020. – Forrester Research(2012)

 

Worldwide spending on hosted private cloud (HPC) services will be more than $24 billion in 2016. – IDC forecast.
