• Overview: Cloud-Enabling Technologies

  By Nancy Gohring Jay Lyman Greg Zwakman Kathleen Frodyma March 5 2018 | Market Monitor & Forecast

  This Market Monitor Cloud-Enabling Technologies report provides updated market and vendor estimates through Q4 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. Additionally, 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.
