IBM Named Leader In Public Cloud IaaS Adoption By TBR
Survey highlights IBM's traction with customers transitioning to hybrid cloud environments.
IBM has announced that it has been named the market leader in public cloud IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service) adoption by leading independent technology market research firm, Technology Business Research, Inc. (TBR). In TBR's semiannual Public Cloud Customer Research survey of 2,169 enterprise, respondents identified IBM as a leader because of its ability to provide customers with hybrid management tools while addressing data location and privacy concerns through a global network of data centers.
"We continue to see strong enterprise adoption of public cloud services being driven by the need for hybrid management tools and solutions," said Kelsey Mason, analyst at TBR. "The market is also consolidating, which leaves very few players remaining that can address customer demands around global reach and scale, as well as data security and compliance."
