5th annual survey on where enterprises are running their apps, why they are making those hosting decisions, and what’s hard about managing all that.
Multi-cloud is everywhere and it’s a PITA. Everyone is using Kubernetes somewhere and cares about sustainability, but 2/3 don’t know where their data resides.
December 2022 and January 2023, U.K. researcher Vanson Bourne surveyed 1,450 IT decision-makers around the world.
Background and Research Goals
For the fifth consecutive year, Nutanix commissioned a global research study to learn about the state of global enterprise cloud deployments and what their biggest IT infrastructure and cloud-related data management challenges are. In December 2022 and January 2023, U.K. researcher Vanson Bourne surveyed 1,450 IT decision-makers around the world. The respondent base spanned multiple industries, business sizes, and geographies, including North and South America; Europe, the Middle East, and Africa (EMEA); and the Asia-Pacific-Japan (APJ) region.
The findings of the 5th Annual Enterprise Cloud Index (ECI) reveal a notable increase in the use of mixed infrastructure, which spans private IT infrastructure (both on-premises and hosted), public clouds, and edge locations. The increased diversity is driving IT pros to seek a unified place to manage and secure their applications and data.
