According to Yuri Shvydchenko, Director of the Technology Practice at TeDo, the trends in the Russian cloud market are multidirectional: "IaaS will grow, and the growth rate may well exceed 50%. But other segments may, on the contrary, decrease, because the current conditions - the departure of foreign software cameroon whatsapp resource manufacturers, the limited and potential shortage of capacity - lead to a decrease in the number of services, especially complex ones, such as SaaS or PaaS, and a shift in supply towards IaaS, Haas. The weak readiness and maturity of domestic vendors to provide products using cloud models will also have an impact."
sees the growth of the cloud market as part of the overall trend toward outsourcing development: "Outsourcing of services and infrastructure has been a trend for the past few years that will gain momentum, increasing supply and demand. We also see the "infrastructure" trend in customer requests. Business requirements for both IT products and the infrastructure on which they are hosted are constantly growing. And the speed of service provision and product release is rapidly increasing. Therefore, it is quite logical that these services are being singled out as a separate, independent business segment."
Marketing and Communications Director of Raketa LLC Daria Zubritskaya sees the consequences of Western companies leaving and the rising cost of on-prem infrastructure as the main driver of cloud market growth. In her opinion, this trend will continue for another three to five years.
Petr Shcheglov, Director of Product Marketing at MyOffice (New Cloud Technologies LLC), also draws attention to factors such as the difficulty of paying for services from foreign cloud service providers and the continuation of digital transformation programs for companies: "The main factor stimulating the growth of the cloud technology market in Russia was the departure of foreign players from the Russian market. In addition, restrictions on accepting payments from Russians worked, which further limited the possibilities of using foreign infrastructure. Other growth drivers are the digital transformation of enterprises, increased security measures, and an emphasis on remote work. In addition, cloud solutions allow companies to optimize costs and scale resources, which makes them more attractive for business."
A Bit of Skepticism
Dmitry Isaev, head of the cloud business at Softline PJSC, is more cautious in his assessments. In his opinion, the growth rate in 2023 has slowed down: "We are seeing some slowdown in the growth rate of public clouds against the backdrop of a number of Western companies leaving Russia, which have completely or partially abandoned cloud services in the Russian Federation. And Russian customers have begun to carefully analyze and optimize their cloud costs, which have been growing for several years in a row, successfully using FinOps tools. In addition, we are seeing a significant acceleration in growth rates in the private cloud segment, which is putting pressure on the growth of public clouds." Dmitry Isaev believes that on average, the growth of the public cloud segment in 2023 will be 30-40%.
