  451 Research's Hosting & Cloud Managed Services Market Monitor service leverages our deep knowledge of and relationships within the cloud hosting & cloud managed services market, resulting in a proprietary forecast based primarily on a bottom-up analysis of 1,450+ providers' current revenue and growth expectations by segment through 2021.

• Overview: Cloud-Enabling Technologies

  By Greg Zwakman Jay Lyman Nancy Gohring Kathleen Frodyma September 5 2017 | Market Monitor & Forecast

  This Market Monitor Cloud-Enabling Technologies report provides updated market and vendor estimates through Q2 2017. Cloud-Enabling Technologies (CET) encompass the vital support system for a cloud environment, which includes the automation and management stack. It is our position that server virtualization itself is an enabler for cloud computing. In addition, what the broader industry terms ‘private clouds’ fall under the purview of our CET definition because this technology is installed, delivered and consumed on-premises, and is not hosted by a third party. However, the CET tools included in this analysis are commonly leveraged by cloud providers to create the cloud environments they offer as a service. The Q3 update includes a breakout of the emerging container marketplace and incorporates the private PaaS vendors as part of our platform analysis.
