Cloud APAC will bring together 500+ active buyers and serves as the most efficient and effective platform to drive growth and innovation in the cloud computing landscape in Asia Pacific Market
1. The Cloud Computing Developing Trends
According to IDC, worldwide IT spending on cloud services will grow
almost threefold, reaching US$42 billion, by 2012. As the cloud
computing model offers a much cheaper way for businesses to acquire
and use IT, IDC expects its adoption to be amplified by the cost-cutting
mantra of most organizations today.
According to Gartner, vendors must clarify cloud strategies in the next 12
months, while IT organizations must demand cloud road maps from
vendors today. The cloud has moved from an early adopter concept to a
must-have and IT leaders are demanding clear, concise information.

2. The Cloud Computing Opportunity in APAC
According to IDC, in a recent survey conducted with 696
IT executives and CIOs across Asia-Pacific to gather
their views, understanding, current usage and planned
usage of cloud computing, it was found that 11% of the
respondents are already using cloud-based solutions. A
further 41% of the respondents indicated that they are
either evaluating cloud solutions for use in their
businesses, or already piloting cloud solutions. When
asked about their opinion of the current state of cloud
computing, 17% of the respondents stated that although
cloud computing is very promising, there are currently
not enough services available to make it compelling.

6. Challenges of Cloud Computing in APAC
Future uptake of cloud computing looks strong.
Over the next three years, as the use of cloud
services expand from the domain of early
adopters to that of the early majority, it becomes
critical for IT vendors to develop strong cloud
offerings, and play a leadership role in aligning
their new cloud products and services with their
organization, their traditional offerings, partner
ecosystem, and customer and market
requirements. IT vendors who fail to seriously
contend for a leadership role will be left with
a minority share of the lucrative pie. For IT
vendors to be successful in the cloud market,
they will have to address users’ cost
concerns. More than 50% of the respondents
indicated cost cutting as the key driver behind
the adoption of cloud computing.

7. Challenges of Cloud Computing in APAC
However, it is also important to note that
supplying low-cost services alone will not
guarantee success, as users are also
indicating that any cloud solution they buy
must offer competitive pricing, offer Service
Level Agreement (SLAs) and offer complete
solutions.
Some IT vendors are well positioned to do this
but others who are focused on a single solution
will need to build strong partner ecosystems to
bring broad solutions to their customers. The
time to do that is now, as respondents have
indicated that in three years time, their use of
cloud-based services will be very different as
compared to what we see today.
