Cloud as we know it is on a path of digital transformation. IDC predicts that by 2020, public IT cloud services will account for 58% of the $355 billion combined spending on traditional plus public cloud applications, development and deployment tools, infrastructure software, storage, and servers.

IDC Predicts…

• By 2018, more than 85% of enterprise IT organizations will commit to multicloud architecture
