The global cloud professional services market size is expected to grow at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 17.2% during the forecast period, to reach USD 37.0 billion by 2026 from USD 14.2 billion in 2020.

Most organizations are increasingly adopting cloud-based models by distributing their computing resources across several environments. Cloud adoption gaining popularity as it provides flexibility, scalability, and low-cost benefits. It also helps organizations centrally analyze data generated from various locations and collect data from different assets, making it easy to gather and analyze data. Due to the transition to cloud, cloud providers are aggressively adding new products and services in their portfolio to have competitive advantage.

The consulting segment holds the largest market size during the forecast period.

Consulting is a professional services practice for enterprise infrastructure that involves advising customers for managing organization's IT infrastructure and improving infrastructure performance, including security and workflow processes. The cloud professional service vendors offer consulting services to users that have limited awareness related to the upgradation of current enterprise infrastructure. Users wishing to upgrade their infrastructure can harness the expertise of cloud professional service providers specializing in the deployment of cloud-based systems across industry-specific use cases, which helps in implementing the right mix of services. The implementation of cloud-based systems can be a costly process for some companies; therefore, it is of utmost importance that end users' companies are aware of the exact business requirements.

The Banking, financial services and insurance vertical expected to hold the largest market share in 2020.

Cloud helps customers easily connect, store, and enable transactions anytime and anywhere, resulting in reduced efforts and time for customers to complete the process. Cloud professional services help BFSI vendors to focus more on the customer-centric model by creating a multi-channel relationship with customers at every step of service offered by them. The BFSI vertical is adopting the digitalization initiatives at a rapid pace to meet the rising customer expectations; hence, adopting cloud professional services for the right solution mix. These services are enabling BFSI to reduce its CAPEX and Operational Expenditure (OPEX) by selecting the right mix of services. There is always a risk associated with data in the BFSI sector, and selecting the right services is always an integral part of the business process. Cloud professional service vendors allow the BFSI vertical to select solutions that offer high data security standards. It also enables BFSI enterprises to comply with the regulations related to the cloud.

North America to hold the largest market size and the Asia Pacific (APAC) to grow at a higher rate during the forecast period

APAC is one of the fastest-growing regions in terms of technology adoption, and the demand for digitization is driven by various initiatives carried out by different governments and large enterprises in the region. Countries such as China, Japan, Australia, Singapore, India, and Indonesia are leading this technology adoption, which includes embracing new-age technologies such as AI, edge, IoT, analytics, and cloud. The region houses a large number of enterprises related to manufacturing, energy and utilities, transportation and logistics, chemicals, and aerospace, which is further expected to drive the demand for cloud professional services.

Best PG Programs in Cloud Computing to Learn in 2021 - Analytics Insight

Versa Recognized as Industrys Only Comprehensive Integration of Cloud Security, Networking, SD-WAN, Secure Access, and Analytics for Branch, Remote and Home Users

Versa Networks, the leader in SASE, today announced that TMC, a global, integrated media company, has named the Versa SASE Secure Access work-from-home (WFH) solution as a 2021 Product of the Year winner, as presented by Cloud Computing Magazine.

Versa SASE for work-from-home delivers tightly integrated SASE via the cloud, on-premises, or as a blended combination of both via Versa Operating System (VOS) with a Single-Pass Parallel Processing architecture and managed through a single pane of glass. Versa began delivering SASE services such as VPN, Secure SD-WAN, Edge Compute Protection, Next-Generation Firewall, Next-Generation Firewall as a Service, Secure Web Gateway, and Zero Trust Network Access 5 years ago. Versa uniquely provides contextual security based on user, role, device, application, location, security posture of the device, and content. As the leader in the fastest growing security and networking category, SASE, and executing on SASE services for years, Versa is the only solution proven to deliver the industrys leading and differentiated architecture for high performance and security. Gartner has identified Versa SASE as having the most SASE components out of all 56 vendors Gartner evaluated. Enterprise Management Associates (EMA) also found that Versa SASE has the most SASE supported functions, as published in its recent industry report.

"Congratulations to Versa Networks for being honored with a Cloud Computing Product of the Year Award," said Rich Tehrani, CEO, TMC. "Versa SASE Secure Access is truly an innovative product and is amongst the best solutions available within the past 12 months that facilitates business-transforming cloud computing and communications. I look forward to continued excellence from Versa Networks in 2021 and beyond."

Story continues

"It is an honor to receive the Cloud Computing 2021 Product of the Year Award, recognizing Versa SASE for unique delivery of fully integrated SASE services via the cloud or if customers prefer delivered on-premises or as a blended combination of both," said Michael Wood, Chief Marketing Officer for Versa Networks. "Versa SASE adoption continues to rapidly expand worldwide in 2021, as does its list of accolades, including leadership position listings in industry analyst reports and a growing collection of awards won. Versa is the modern secure network."

Unlike competing solutions, Versa SASE was built from the ground up to deliver a tightly integrated SASE solution within a single software stack managed via a single interface, eliminating service chaining, cascading, and virtual interconnect between services, which is required by competitors. Competing solutions have hidden costs and gaps in security because they require multiple product and service components. Achieving visibility and control from solutions requiring service chaining to connect multiple components together proves ineffective, increasing the costs and attack surfaces for organizations.

Versa SASE runs on VOS, which is designed with the Versa Single-Pass Parallel Processing architecture combining extensive security, advanced networking, industry leading SD-WAN, genuine multitenancy, and sophisticated analytics into one software image. This integration and design methodology dramatically decreases latency, significantly improves performance, and mitigates security vulnerabilities which other solutions introduce by running multiple software stacks, service chains, or appliances.

How to Land a Government Job in Cloud Computing? - Analytics Insight

Microsoft has revealed the root cause of the recent outage affecting Azure, which lasted about an hour and was due to a surge in Domain Name System (DNS) requests coupled with a code defect.

Users were reporting that Azure Portal, Azure Services, Dynamics 365, and Xbox Live were inaccessible during the worldwide outage between 21:21 UTC and 22:00 UTC on 1 Apr 2021. Microsoft said in its root cause analysis report that the majority of services recovered by 22:30 UTC.

While Microsoft quickly confirmed the outage was related to its DNS capabilities, the company's final root cause analysis published April 4 sheds a bit more light on the cause being a previously unseen code defect in its DNS service that was triggered by excessive DNS client retries.

SEE: Office 365: A guide for tech and business leaders (free PDF) (TechRepublic)

"Azure DNS servers experienced an anomalous surge in DNS queries from across the globe targeting a set of domains hosted on Azure," Microsoft states.

"Normally, Azure's layers of caches and traffic shaping would mitigate this surge. In this incident, one specific sequence of events exposed a code defect in our DNS service that reduced the efficiency of our DNS Edge caches."

Microsoft's DNS service was swamped as DNS clients retried requests, which added further pressure on the service. Microsoft notes DNS client retries are considered legitimate DNS traffic, so this traffic was not dropped by Microsoft's volumetric mitigation systems, in turn reducing the availability of its DNS service across multiple regions.

Microsoft says it mitigated the issue by updating the logic on the volumetric spike mitigation system to protect the DNS service from excessive client retries.

The technology giant apologized to affected customers and explained that it had repaired the code defect to handle all requests efficiently in the cache. It has also improved automatic detection and mitigation of anomalous traffic patterns.

This latest outage was not as lengthy as its 14-hour Azure outage in mid-March, which was attributed to an error that occurred in the rotation of keys used to support Azure AD's use of OpenID.

IBM has announced the general availability of its finance industry cloud, bolstered with the support Red Hat OpenShift alongside other cloud-native services.

The companys IBM Cloud for Financial Services, which was designed in collaboration with Bank of America and debuted in 2019, allows clients and partners to build applications with OpenShift, migrate virtual machine workloads, as well as establish compliance profiles across their workloads to help support continuous compliance needs.

Current customers and partners, alongside Bank of America, include BNP Paribas, Luminor Bank, based in the Baltic states, and MUFG in Japan. The initiative also boasts more than 90 ISVs and software as a service providers. New to the latter list is SAP.

The compliance aspect is naturally an important one when it comes to financial data. IBM Cloud for Financial Services boasts IBMs fourth-generation confidential computing capabilities, along with claimed enterprise-grade encryption.

As regular readers of this publication will have seen, industries such as finance and healthcare, with high levels of regulation and specific data requirements, have seen comparatively slow uptake of cloud offerings. The largest cloud providers, however, have hoped to allay certain fears with the launch of industry-specific clouds. Microsoft launched a healthcare cloud in May, with others to come. This has come to pass, with the most recent tranche, in February, featuring finance, alongside manufacturing and non-profit.

IBM is keen to point out, however, that it was here first for this particular industry. Alongside the work with Bank of America, the company has worked with Promontory, a global provider of financial services regulatory compliance consulting. The result is a set of compliance controls which are built directly into the IBM Cloud for Financial Services offering.

These controls are critical to help financial services companies operate securely while managing bank-sensitive data in the public cloud, Harish Grama, general manager of IBM Cloud, told CloudTech.

Grama added that finance in particular was an industry that has long been challenged by cloud platforms that lacked the necessary technologies to address its specific compliance and regulatory environments.

Telecom is another vital industry for the biggest cloud providers. IBM launched IBM Cloud for Telecommunications in November, two months after Microsoft unveiled Azure for Operators. Grama noted that IBM understands the needs of highly regulated industries, specifically citing finance, telco, healthcare and government, and is committed to helping companies securely migrate their mission-critical workloads to the cloud.

As companies embark on their cloud journeys, we will continue to look for opportunities to leverage our expansive industry and global experience across our cloud business, added Grama.
