IDC research agency issued a forecast that looks at how the US federal government spends part of its IT budget on Cloud- based solutions. Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) Accommodation is a preferred type of hosting solution. According to the new report, IaaS will grow from $ 1 billion in FY2012 to $ 5.4 billion by FY2017.
IaaS services to the US government include networking, systems management, firewalls, load balancers, management of the hosting IP addresses and names area, and more. In many other industries in the United States, SaaS is the largest segment for cloud spending. But in government, IaaS is the leader
According to the new report ,. "Perspective: Growth and slight contraction - Government Cloud spending by the US federal agency," increased spending for the cloud were rare in federal agencies for two years, but IDC Government Insights expects to see accelerated after fiscal 2014. the increase was helped by the enterprise architecture standards and rules, which helps to create a commodity approach to cloud computing solutions.
vs. public Private Cloud Hosting
public cloud server spending is not the big winner when it comes to planning the federal cloud. In fact, spending on public cloud hosting is currently only about 10% of that of private cloud hosting solutions. Too many government agencies are nervous (correctly or not) on the level of security that can be pledged by public cloud server solutions. But many organizations still make investments in public clouds, for things ranging from platforms of development on the site or email hosting or storage of low-risk long-term data. Federal Public Cloud Hosting spending will increase from $ 110.4 million in FY2012 to over $ 118.3 million in FY2014. The Treasury Department is the leader here.
The hosting private cloud is clearly the first choice for federal cloud hosting solutions. The promises of greater security, control and privacy appear to hold the key to that federal agencies seek. In some cases, we have seen new applications developed on a public cloud, which are then moved to a dedicated private cloud for their execution environment. Federal Private Cloud Hosting spending will grow from $ 1.5 billion in FY2012 to over $ 1.7 billion in FY2014.
