SÃO PAULO, Dec. 11, 2018
/PRNewswire/ -- The cloud computing market in Brazil is evolving in a unique way that offers
opportunities for local providers to compete with large
multinational cloud services vendors, according to a new report
published today by Information Services Group (ISG) (Nasdaq: III),
a leading global technology research and advisory firm.
The ISG Provider Lens™ Cloud Transformation/Operation
Services & XaaS Report for Brazil in 2019 finds some large cloud
providers are focused more on the U.S. market, giving Brazilian
companies an opening to grow their cloud-related business in the
country. The report lists Brazilian cloud services vendors Sky.One,
TIVIT, UOL Diveo and Dedalus Prime as leaders or rising stars in
segments of the Brazilian cloud transformation, cloud operation
services and XaaS markets. The Brazilian providers are particularly
strong in serving local midmarket clients and in providing managed
services.
"Brazilian service providers have a narrow opportunity to
partner with hyperscale IaaS providers before the market gets
crowded," said Esteban Herrera,
partner and global leader of ISG Research.
Potential cost savings are driving Brazilian companies to move
workloads to large cloud providers, the report also finds. The
average cost savings is 38 percent, although that number is not as
high as suggested by hyperscale IaaS providers. A reduction in
infrastructure incidents may be more attractive to some
companies.
A cost savings of 30 percent or more is "a sound reason for
moving to the cloud, but the business case for incident reduction
and achieving higher infrastructure availability is more appealing
in many cases," Herrera said.
The report notes hybrid cloud use is commonplace among large
enterprises that are still encumbered with legacy systems, but less
so for midmarket companies. Midmarket firms that lack the scale or
complexity to fully leverage a private data center may derive
significant savings from a lift-and-shift approach to moving legacy
systems such as SAP to enterprise clouds.
In the hyperscale cloud market, Microsoft and Amazon Web
Services are leaders in Brazil,
with Microsoft surpassing AWS in total contract value, the report
found. Microsoft has 19,670 partners and resellers in Brazil, while AWS has 204, the report said.
IBM, Google and Oracle are in the early stages of creating cloud
partner programs.
The ISG Provider Lens™ Cloud Transformation/Operation
Services & XaaS Report for Brazil evaluates the capabilities of 29 cloud
providers serving this market across five quadrants: Public Cloud
Transformation for Large Accounts, Public Cloud Transformation for
Midmarket, Managed Public Cloud Services for Large Accounts,
Managed Public Cloud Services for Midmarket and IaaS Enterprise
Cloud. TIVIT is listed as a leader in all five quadrants, and
Dedalus Prime and UOL Diveo are listed as leaders or rising stars
in four. Other leaders or rising stars include Sky.One, BRLink,
Eveo, Accenture, Capgemini, Claranet and IBM.
Other Brazilian companies evaluated are Atmosfero, CorpFlex,
IPsense, Mandic, Penso, and Tecnocomp.
Custom versions of the report are available from Dedalus,
Sky.One and TIVIT.
