Cloud computing 'is the most dynamic segment of the IT industry'
Nov 27 2009, 21:43 PM
Cloud computing has been named as the most dynamic segment of the software and IT services industry by a new study.
Research carried out by consultancy business PAC predicted that the market for cloud computing will experience annual growth of more than 20 per cent for the next 12 years, reports V3.
Frederic Giron, a director at PAC, said that cloud computing was increasingly providing a genuine alternative to more established software products.
"Open source is also playing an important role in the customisation of information systems, enabling service providers to better serve customer needs," he added.
Mr Giron went on to state his belief that cloud computing, along with service-orientated architecture, was playing a key role in what he termed the "industrial revolution of software".
Earlier this month, David Cearley, vice president of research company Gartner, said that he expected cloud computing to be a "broad, long-term phenomenon", reported ITWire.
