Cloud Usage is Ubiquitous
Hybrid is the Preferred Strategy
Dev, Test and Web are the Top Workloads
Self-Service is Needed to Reap the Benefits
VMware Dominates in Private Environments
But is Virtualization a Cloud?

“If you think a private cloud is just another name for
virtualization automation, think again. The business sees
value from cloud services that deliver agility, autonomy, and
pay-per-use economics. If your private cloud doesn’t deliver
this, the business will look elsewhere to get this value, even
going so far as to build its own.”
