Gabriella (Ellie) Brown is a research analyst at S&P Global Market Intelligence working across the 451 Research Cloud Transformation channel and the technology, media and telecommunications data team. She manages the Cloud Price Index, the division’s benchmark tracking product for pricing for a selection of cloud infrastructure and managed services around the world. Ellie compiles and maintains a dataset collected from millions of hyperscaler SKUs and looks at trends in pricing, service additions and regional expansion plans for the major public cloud providers. Ellie’s additional coverage areas include the developing quantum computing and quantum network sectors, with research spanning quantum-suited verticals, new quantum hardware and software developments and the intersection of quantum technology, with key themes including AI and sustainability. Before joining S&P Global Market Intelligence in 2022, Ellie’s work experience included product strategy/planning and go-to-market activities for SaaS and AI startups, as well as scientific research in astronomy and work as a secondary teacher. Ellie holds a bachelor’s degree in English with a minor in physics from the University of Utah and is pursuing a master’s degree in environmental policy and management with a concentration in sustainable energy from the University of Denver.
The quantum computing market is rapidly evolving as it transitions from early experimentation into an era replete with practical application across various industries. OTI Lumionics is at the forefront of this movement, focusing on developing advanced materials for consumer electronics.
In addition to publishing quarterly cloud price benchmarks, 451 Research's Cloud Price Index periodically tracks SKU changes at AWS, Azure and Google Cloud. The three companies saw nearly 97,000 changes to their cloud service portfolios in September, along with an uptick in services removed by the providers.
The Cloud Price Index now produces more than 500 public cloud benchmarks each quarter for 10 regions around the world, spanning compute, storage, machine learning, database, serverless and network, as well as tracks categorical changes to hyperscaler SKU portfolios on a monthly cadence. The new format aggregates this data into an interactive dashboard with a suite of visualization tools.

The new format aggregates this data into a single spreadsheet, with tools that allow clients to chart time-based and geographical trends plus to build their own baskets of cloud services.
Sustainability continues to be a major focus for organizations, with most pursuing some type of publicly declared improvement target, despite a small proportion holding out. Of the companies actively pursuing environmental goals, optimism is high that targets will be achieved on time, although cost-related barriers and the likely need for additional investment may adversely impact progress toward such goals.
