The 2022 Cloud Infrastructure Report

A survey of IT and business cloud decision makers

What’s driving enterprises’ cloud transformational goals? And do they have the appropriate resources in place to optimize their cloud operations? 

The 2022 Cloud Infrastructure Report, sponsored by Spot by NetApp and conducted by Dimensional Research, explores the drivers for and challenges with enterprise cloud transformation. This new research examines how businesses leverage internal experts, practices, and vendors to see success and value with the public cloud investment.

Key findings from the report include:

  • Managing cloud operations in 2022 will grow in scope: 63% of respondents say that they will increase their use of technology, and half (50%) plan to optimize cloud costs
  • Cloud cost management is still a work in progress: 96% say that FinOps is important to cloud success, yet just 10% of respondents have a mature FinOps practice in place
  • Managed service providers play a key role in cloud operations: 100% of companies that work with an MSP say that they have benefited from the relationship
