Annual RightScale Survey Reveals Cloud Adoption Trends

State Of The Cloud

As a developer of cloud-based software for managing multiple IaaS platforms, RightScale knows the cloud.  The Santa Barbara, Calif.-based vendor recently polled 930 technical professionals across a broad cross-section of organizations and industries about their adoption of cloud infrastructure for its annual State Of The Cloud report.

The 2015 survey provides insights into how companies are using cloud technologies, who's making the buying decisions for them, what public and private providers they prefer and what their plans are for future adoption. When compared to the 2014 survey, it also illustrates some significant trends.
