New SDxCentral Report: Scaling Clouds - Infrastructure Orchestration and DevOps at Scale - 2018 Cloud Orchestration and DevOps Report
Newly released report find significant uptake in the use of multi-cloud and containers, as well as increasing diversity in flavors of clouds consumed.
SAN FRANCISCO, July 3, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- SDxCentral.com announces the availability of a new report: Scaling Clouds - Infrastructure Orchestration and DevOps at Scale: The 2018 Cloud Orchestration and DevOps Report.
The development of public, private, and hybrid clouds has had an enormous impact on how software-defined anything (SDx) infrastructure is developed and built. Our latest Cloud Orchestration and DevOps Report looks at the platforms and tools available to help end-users maximize the efficiencies and value they can derive from their cloud data centers.
Cloud computing technologies have been with us the last 10+ years, but in the last few years, cloud computing has captured significant market and mind share. Along with uptake and use of hybrid (private and public) and multi-clouds (use of more than one public cloud), cloud orchestration and automation has become more critical. Public cloud providers are extending their reach into private clouds and private cloud providers are doing likewise into public clouds.
In addition to the types of networks being utilized, there's also increasing diversity in types of clouds being consumed, from IaaS (Infratructure as a service) and PaaS (platform as a service), to Container as a Service (CaaS) and increasing interest in server-less technologies (sometimes called Functions-as-a-Service).
The report focuses on cloud management and examines key developments in cloud and multi-cloud and will touch on the container management space. We will identify key requirements and features for DevOps, orchestration, and automation solutions.
The report will also cover the potential convergence between orchestration and management tools for managing bare-metal, VMs, containers and the different combinations (e.g. containers on VMs). We'll highlight trends in how management tools are delivered from SaaS or on-premises, open-source or vendor-proprietary and other variations. Finally, we'll provide a sampling of vendor solutions on the market today.
The report also includes results from a survey conducted by SDxCentral's research team with select members of the SDxCentral community. This report is complimentary and available for download at SDxCentral.com. Vendors who are interested in participating in future versions of this report or other reports published by SDxCentral.com can contact us at [email protected].
