However, it is a positive sign that 2nd Watch is coming to market with 'productized' work packages via its CM3 methodology, which is better aligned to the cloud-consumption ethos than traditional contracts based on time and materials. Managed services run the services once they are implemented

- Accoding to 451 Research Hyperscale operators drive data centre efficiency by exploiting economies of scale, pushing up utilization, quantifying productivity and innovating both with the facilities and throughout their organizations. As a result, they are able to increase their IT service transactions per dollar of data center cost and reallocate resources that might otherwise be spent on operations to growth. Over time, this will drive efficiency throughout the industry because competing operators and even enterprise datacentres will be under pressure to match the hyperscale efficiency - and to better understand their own costs. Amazon is thought to have spent $12bn on Data Centers since 2005. Last year the capital expenditures are belived to be almost equal to the revenues. Google has reportedly spent $23bn on its internet infrastruture and Data Centers. Microsoft recently disclosed that it has spent more that $18Bn on its Data Centers since 2005 Softlayer – Plans to spend over 1B in the next year
- Good news: Amazon has more instance types and higher-level services than any competitor. Bad news: that means a ton of complexity and tracking challenges for users. Amazon Web Services leads the league in public cloud services. By a lot. Even after big strides by Microsoft and Google, Gartner analyst Lydia Leong estimated that AWS alone still has five times more IaaS compute capacity than the aggregate total of the other 14 cloud providers Gartner tracked. That’s not to say AWS is invulnerable. Even devout fans acknowledge that Amazon’s resources are unwieldy to track and monitor. Attendees of Google’s cloud event in March included many AWS users who were very enthusiastic about Google’s sustained usage price model, which kicks off discounts automatically when certain utilization levels are met.
- Not surprisingly 34% of the respondents said they wouldn’t deal with AWS as they were a competitor but the more interesting part of the survey was that 18% the industry said they would adopt AWS moving forward. This is interesting because it reflects a growing belief that the industry will start to incorporate AWS into their product offerings. When you look further at the numbers you see issues such as current technical skills (14%), inability to monetize (16%) or the perception that AWS is hard to work with (8%). If you add these together it amounts to 38% which makes the largest group. The ones I would call out here are technical skills and business models. The industry is developing tools that assist Managed Service Providers and better knowledge is developing around ways to monetize new cloud opportunities.
