Gartner predicts worldwide public cloud end user spending to grow by 35% in 2022

As per the latest forecast by Gartner, worldwide end-user spending on public cloud services is expected to grow by 23.1% in 2021, when compared to 2020.

Sid Nag, research vice president at Gartner says, "The events of last year allowed CIOs to overcome any reluctance of moving mission-critical workloads from on-premises to the cloud. Emerging technologies such as containerization, virtualization, and edge computing are becoming more mainstream and driving additional cloud spending. Simply put, the pandemic served as a multiplier for CIOs’ interest in the cloud."

As the report suggests, Cloud Ubiquity, Regional Cloud Ecosystems, Sustainability & CIPS Providers’ Automated Programmable Infrastructure would be the contributors facilitating the growth of public cloud.
