This document examines the market from a demand-side perspective, focusing on the hosting strategies of small, medium-sized, and large United States–based businesses. The hosting-related questions in the survey explore a number of issues, including companies' use of third-party Web hosting services and factors influencing the decision to rely on external hosting service providers or to keep the hosting function in-house. Key survey findings include the following: Third-party hosting infrastructure services are gaining momentum. A total of 47% of respondents use completely outsourced or hybrid in-house/third-party solutions in 2008. Performance-oriented considerations (scalability, security, and redundancy) emerge alongside price as top decision factors for outsourced hosting infrastructure services. Hardware-oriented services (e.g., server management and backup/recovery) are the most commonly outsourced hosting infrastructure function, but services for server virtualization, load balancing, server OS management, and enterprise application management provide upselling opportunities for hosting infrastructure service providers Cloud computing has not yet taken over the hosting infrastructure world. A total of 19% of companies are currently using cloud computing services, but only 6% currently use cloud providers as their primary source of third-party hosting infrastructure services.

"The markets might be down, but WAN application acceleration is hot." — Tracy Corbo, senior analyst, Enterprise Networks Wed, 22 Oct 2008 00:00:00 EDThttp://www.idc.com/getdoc.jsp?pid=23571113&containerId=214845http://www.idc.com/getdoc.jsp?pid=23571113&containerId=214845This IDC Vendor Profile evaluates Nirvanix, an emerging supplier of cloud-based storage solutions. It explores the company's history, product positioning, and competitive posture. It also discusses industry dynamics and business challenges that will shape cloud computing and cloud storage. It is part of the Small Vendor Profile (SVP) Series, a special IDC initiative of IDC's storage hardware, storage software, semiconductor, and compliance infrastructure groups. The goal of the SVP Series is to profile smaller "have you ever heard of" companies that have unique but compelling positions within these IDC services. Every client of at least one IDC service within one of the IDC groups listed will receive each and every vendor profile, regardless of which analyst authors the profile. The SVP Series runs from October 2008 through September 2009.
