In 2024, the global public cloud services market is expected to grow by approximately 20.4 percent, which amounts to about 675 billion U.S. dollars. While the growth of cloud services is relatively rapid, it still represents a small percentage of the global IT services market, which is forecast to cross 1.5 trillion U.S. dollars in 2024. What is a public cloud? A public cloud is a type of cloud computing through which a service provider makes resources, such as applications, virtual machines, or storage capabilities, available to the public via the internet. Clients pay for these resources through a pay-as-you-go model or by subscription. The kind of resources offered vary by cloud provider, which is why organizations that want to migrate their data and workloads to the cloud need to develop a migration strategy beforehand. Public cloud as part of the IT infrastructure solution Today’s clouds used by organizations are usually not deployed as standalone solutions. Rather, they are an integral part of a heterogeneous mix of information technology (IT) network solutions and environments. Ultimately, organizations seek to increase performance and security while lowering costs and ensuring a wider availability of their services and applications by deploying public clouds.
