the primary driver for cloud adoption will shift from economics to innovation

Frank Gens, Senior Vice President

and Chief Analyst at IDC

• The cloud decision is intrinsically tied to end user adoption and, ultimately, business alignment

Infrastructure maintained solely for customer

On premises or off

Managed by the customer, or by a 3rd party hoster

Private Cloud Hybrid Cloud

Multiple infrastructure options

Components both on premises and off premises

Management spread between customer and 3rd

party hosters

Infrastructure shared by multiple customers

Off premises

Managed by 3rd party on behalf of customers

Public Cloud

According to IDC, virtual private clouds (Azure) will accelerate organizations into the cloud

• By 2017, public IT cloud services will drive 17% of IT product spending and nearly half of all growth across five technology categories:

• Applications

• System infrastructure software

• Platform as a service (PaaS)

• Servers

• Basic storage

• Software as a service (SaaS) will remain the largest public IT cloud services category throughout the forecast, capturing 59.7% of revenues in 2017.

• The fastest growing categories will be PaaS and IaaS, with CAGRs of 29.7% and 27.2%, respectively.

on prem

• Size and geographical distribution of an organization can affect cloud adoption.

• Regulatory compliance and governance requirements can limit cloud options.

• External collaboration may require on prem farms.

• Service-level agreements (SLAs) may limit cloud options.

• It is important to under the ROI of any proposed solution (and the cost of change).

• Hybrid may be more of a transitional environment from on prem to the cloud.

• Enables customers to use preferred features from SharePoint 2013 on prem and SharePoint Online.

Need space and maintenance planning Most likely provided

Licensing costs, but also upgrades and ongoing support

Included in vendor-hosted solutions

Need to purchase, support and maintain, and upgrade as platform matures

Included in vendor-hosted solutions

Administrative, developer, and end user skills and training

Still requires administrative and possibly dev skills, end user training

On Premises Cloud Hybrid

Full control

Limited to none in SaaS, some control over PaaS, full control over IaaS

Limited ability to integrate depending on SaaS, PaaS, or IaaS

Many limitations OTB, but very robust tools from partners

Limited

Very complex across on prem and cloud components, very manual

Needs to be planned, limited features OTB

Defined in SLAs

Some OTB capabilities, 3rd party for tighter control and predictability

Microsoft recommends 3rd

party tools

On Premises Cloud Hybrid

Very complex across on prem and cloud components, very manual

Some OTB capabilities, 3rd party for tighter control and predictability
