Startling Fact: Size of Cloud Computing Market

January 23, 2010

Tucked into a story about IBM landing Panasonic as a customer for Lotus Notes was a startling fact. “The global cloud computing market is expected to grow at a compounded annual rate of 28 percent from $47 billion in 2008 to $126 billion by 2012, according to IBM based on various market estimates.” You can see this gem in context at “Panasonic Ushers in the Cloud Computing Era with IBM LotusLive”. That’s a heck of a number.

A freebie. I don’t know what federal agency is in charge of numbers without back up. Maybe OMB?
