More providers are offering broader portfolios of managed and unmanaged services and hosted applications and platforms, and most (if not all) infrastructure providers have absorbed some of the practical implications of cloud computing into their operations, fundamentally altering the mode of service delivery. The Hosting & Cloud Managed Market Monitor was developed to more accurately track and forecast this evolving market. 451 Research has updated its quantitative market-sizing instruments within the cloud and service provider markets to make them more flexible and modular, and to allow for more granular analysis of specific segments and subsegments of this market. The 451 Hosting, Cloud & Managed Market Monitor will enable custom analysis of provider participation by individual segment (as presented to the right, or specified by clients), geographic region and country.

5 Methodology Market Monitor s Bottom-Up Approach 1,500+ Vendors included in analysis with individual estimates and forecasts 75% Of market estimate and forecast based on individual vendor estimates Our Hosting, Cloud & Managed database contains individual models on 1,500+ vendors in the market. Each model contains intelligence specific to that company (i.e., customers, pricing, deal sizes and trends) with a forecast that incorporates the unique traits, strengths and weaknesses of the vendor. A bottom-up analysis entails creating individual estimates and forecasts for each market participant in lieu of relying on historical or related data, applying broad assumptions or extrapolating market totals based on input from a handful of large vendors (a top-down approach). 20 Subsegments that break down the HCMS Market Our Hosting, Cloud & Managed database seeks to move past the old definitions of Managed, Shared and Dedicated to find out specific infrastructure, applications and services offered by providers in this market. HOSTING, CLOUD & MANAGED SERVICES 5

6 Primary Segment Definitions Infrastructure Hosting Application Hosting Infrastructure hosting entails the delivery of compute, storage, networking and related resources to clients via the internet or other wide area network (WAN). In an application hosting environment, the hosting provider maintains its own multi-tenant instance of the software, selling customers access by the seat, site or other appropriate measure. This is distinct from a pure SaaS product, in which the software vendor itself operates the multi-tenant software installation, and all usage is based on the same platform; and managed application hosting, in which a managed hosting provider will provide application management services for a customer s individual deployment of an application. Hosting, Cloud & Managed Infrastructure Infrastructure as a Service Platform as a Service Virtual Private Server Hosted Private Cloud Bare Metal Applications Web Hosting Web Presence App Hosting: App Hosting: Business Apps App Hosting: Database DR, Backup and Archiving Managed Security Managed Application Networking/CDN Operational Managed Managed Managed services represent a service component that can be delivered on a stand-alone basis or bundled with infrastructure and application offerings. There are a broad range of services that fall under this category, and the hurdle for inclusion is that the managed service provider is bound by a contractual agreement that specifies the scope and expectations of the relationship, with the client maintaining direct oversight of what is being managed. Dedicated Hosting Storage App Hosting: e-commerce App Hosting: WaaS/DaaS App Hosting: DevOps

7 Infrastructure Segment Definitions Infrastructure as a Service Provides raw compute and storage capacity to users. IaaS vendors provide outsourced servers, OS, storage, datacenter space, network equipment, etc., via a virtualized environment paid for by end users on an on-demand basis. Under the IaaS banner, we delineate revenue by compute and storage as a service and stand-alone cloud storage offerings. Platform as a Service Virtual Private Server Hosted Private Cloud Bare-Metal Hosting Dedicated Hosting Storage PaaS is a cloud-enabled development platform. PaaS offerings are designed to support the entire application lifecycle development, testing, deployment, runtime, hosting (either self-provided or by a third party) and delivery on a single platform. Sometimes termed virtual dedicated hosting, virtual private server (VPS) is similar to shared and dedicated web hosting, and is frequently positioned as a stepping stone between the two by hosting providers. VPS was originally conceived as a way for service providers to use virtualization to provide customers with some of the isolation and performance benefits of dedicated hosting at a more attractive price. A cloud environment operated by a service provider on the service provider s premises wherein all the servers and storage provisioned are dedicated to a single tenant and often physically segregated from other IaaS environments. A single-tenant IaaS environment where the basic unit of compute is a single physical server in varying capacities, provisioned and orchestrated in accordance with NIST definitions for IaaS, offering scalability of fabric. Dedicated hosting is the leasing or rental of a server by the customer. That server is dedicated to a single customer it is not shared, regardless of how it is used. Customers exercise full control over the server beyond physical maintenance, and the hosting provider will not generally include administrative services aside from ensuring the server s ability to function at a hardware level. Cloud storage services provide persistent block, file and object data storage and data access for applications and remote users. Object storage services are used for handling unstructured datasets and are accessed through standardized APIs, while block storage is used for transactional data and looks like virtual disks to virtual machines in a cloud.

8 Application Segment Definitions Web Hosting Web hosting services combine hosted server infrastructure and basic software building blocks (operating system, database, web server, scripting language) in a platform for hosting websites. Customers are charged monthly for a limited set of storage and compute resources. Web Presence Web presence services address a similar use case to web hosting (typically small-scale websites), but do so by delivering browser-based website editing software as the primary user interface. In some cases, these services may abstract infrastructure resources altogether, instead offering pricing based on pages and monthly visits. Application Hosting Application hosting is frequently offered as a complement to web hosting services. In an application hosting environment, the hosting provider maintains its own multi-tenant instance of the software, selling customers access by the seat, site or other appropriate measure. This is distinct from a pure SaaS product, in which the software vendor itself operates the multi-tenant software installation, and all usage is based on the same platform, and managed application hosting, in which a managed hosting provider will provide application management services for a customer s individual deployment of an application. The list of applications frequently delivered in this manner and tracked in this segment include ; workspace as a service and desktop as a service; business applications (customer relationship management, industry-specific applications, other line-of-business applications, social applications, enterprise resource planning, media streaming and digital publishing, engineering/research, and development/technical computing.); database hosting; application development (tools, platforms and DevOps); and applications.

9 Service Segment Definitions DR, Backup, Archiving Managed Security Managed Application Networking/CDN Operational Managed Disaster recovery, backup and archiving is a virtualized, single- or multi-tenant outgrowth of traditional DR provisioned from an IaaS/hosted environment and available as needed as a managed service. Client configurations and data are stored and updated as needed, but infrastructure is not deployed, consumed or paid for until triggered. File backup and data archive services are software-based on-demand cloud storage services that are limited to data storage. Traditional disaster recovery/business-continuity services require pre-installed and purchased infrastructure to fully replicate client environments, as well as managed services to maintain it. The managed security service market entails the outsourcing of some or all IT security functions to a service provider that monitors and manages the environment from an off-site location. Included in our definition are providers that take over management of on-premises security technology belonging to the customer, or that deploy security technology to the customer's premises and manage it from off-site. Recently, this definition has begun to expand to include management of the security of the customer s public or private cloud environment (such as incident response for incidents affecting the customer s public cloud resources), or of the customer s security functionality deployed in a public or private cloud (such as a hosted deployment of virtualized SIEM, for example). This definition excludes all services performed on-premises, including consulting and integration. Application services include application strategy and portfolio optimization, development, transformation, integration and acceleration/deployment. Networking services are associated with caching, encoding, network performance and route optimization, DNS services, and load balancing. Content delivery networks are a system of highly distributed servers and storage to deliver content (including static web objects, web pages and files) and applications over the internet. Operational managed services include infrastructure/application monitoring and alerting, premium 24/7 support services, enterprise mobility management services, incident management and remediation, enhanced SLA, and capacity-planning services.
