href=\"http:\/\/www.businesswire.com\/news\/home\/20150421006874\/en\/Worldwide-Cloud-Infrastructure-Market-Growth-Expected-Accelerate#.VUjV3PlVhBc\" target=\"_blank\"> IDC reports<\/a> their estimates for 2015 cloud spending. \u00a0Roughly one-third of all IT infrastructure spending will be on the cloud this year. \u00a0Total cloud spending will reach $32 billion this year, an increase of 21 percent over last year. \u00a0Over the next four years, cloud computing is expected to grow at a 14 percent rate annually. \u00a0By 2019, IDC expects that half of IT spending will be on the cloud.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Kuba Stolarski bio\" href=\"https:\/\/www.idc.com\/getdoc.jsp?containerId=PRF002368\" target=\"_blank\">Kuba Stolarski<\/a>, Research Manager at IDC, said that\u00a0\u201cthe pace of adoption of cloud-based platforms will not abate for quite some time, resulting in cloud IT infrastructure expansion continuing to outpace the growth of the overall IT infrastructure market for the foreseeable future. \u00a0As the market evolves into deploying 3rd Platform solutions and developing next-gen software, organizations of all types and sizes will discover that traditional approaches to IT management will increasingly fall short of the simplicity, flexibility, and extensibility requirements that form the core of cloud solutions.&#8221;<\/p>\n<div>\n<div
