Report Overview

The global cloud computing market size was valued at USD 483.98 billion in 2022 and is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 14.1% from 2023 to 2030. The market is expected to increase due to factors such as the functional ability of cloud computing to improve business performance in large enterprises, hybrid models and Omni-cloud systems, and pay-as-you-go models. Additionally, as businesses need to improve their digital activities, cloud services have increased in popularity in developing countries. Moreover, large businesses are rapidly adopting cloud services due to on-demand availability. For instance, in April 2023, Accenture plc and Microsoft Corporation together with joint venture named Avanade, completed the migrations of business operations over the cloud for Unilever, a consumer goods company, helps Unilever to meet the changing consumer needs faster, market products and services faster, and allocate resources more effectively.
