CIOTech Outlook >> Magazine >> May - 2014 issue

Cloud storage wars and excellent software offerings are making the cloud an even more attractive place to do business. Both business and        consumer users are migrating to the cloud in droves, bringing us to a new digital age filled with opportunity. Even though enterprise CIOs have been skeptical with cloud computing making significant inroads in the marketplace, given the key concerns pertaining to security, compliance, outages and data proliferation, cloud computing in India is at an inflection point today. IDC estimates the Indian cloud computing market to grow to $3 billion by 2015, while Gartner expects, almost two-thirds of Indian CIOs will run and manage their businesses via cloud computing in coming two years. Apart from the escalating cloud adoption, the market also expects scalability, cost efficiency and pay-per-use pricing models from cloud service providers.

To address the burning need of CIOs to find the solution providers that fit their requirements, CIOReview magazine presents to you '20 Most Promising Cloud Computing Companies'. These organizations are helping enterprises move to the cloud and are developing products and services to make this move seamless. A distinguished panel comprising of CEOs, CIOs, industry analysts and the CIOReview board scrutinized several companies and finalized the list of '20 Most Promising Cloud Computing Companies', who are at the forefront of addressing the real challenges.
