13 CLOUD TRANSFORMATION WORKLOADS AND KEY PROJECTS 2017 Use of Cloud Environments Over Next Two Years Cloud-Familiar Respondents Using Cloud Computing Q21. Which of the following statements best describes how your organization will use different on-premises and offpremises cloud environments over the next 2 years? We will focus primarily on a single cloud environment, not multiple clouds. We will have multiple different cloud environments, but there will be little to no interoperability between the cloud environments. We will have multiple cloud environments to migrate workloads or data between different cloud environments. We will have multiple cloud environments where the delivery of a single business function across the different cloud environments is seamless. 12.6% 20.4% 28.6% 38.4% Source: 451 Research, Voice of the Enterprise: Cloud Transformation, Workloads and Key Projects 2017 n = 437 Percent of Sample CLOUD TRANSFORMATION WORKLOADS AND KEY PROJECTS

14 What s next? Beyond containers on VMs Rise of container management and orchestration with hybrid cloud Growing production use and revenue M&A consolidation Dare to adopt 14
