Gartner: $592 Billion In Public Cloud Spending In 2023

Cloud computing startups are entering a competitive, yet still relatively infant market, with only a small portion of applications and workloads currently in the cloud compared to the majority still being on-premise.

IT research firm Gartner expects 2023 to be a record year for public cloud services with cloud migration accelerating for years to come.

Gartner is projecting total worldwide end-user spending on public cloud services to reach $592 billion in 2023, up 21 percent compared with $490 billion in 2022. Approximately $195 billion will be spend on cloud application Software as a Service (SaaS), $150 billion on Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) and $136 billion on Platform as a Service (PaaS).

“Cloud computing will continue to be a bastion of safety and innovation, supporting growth during uncertain times due to its agile, elastic and scalable nature,” said Sid Nag, vice president and analyst at Gartner. “Cloud migration is not stopping.”
