Public Cloud
Public cloud provides on-demand computing resources over the internet. It uses a pay-per-use model with features like self-service, resource pooling, and rapid elasticity. Public cloud service models include Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and Software as a Service (SaaS), offering foundational components, development environments, and application access, respectively.

Reducing Filters
Unlike sizing filters, reducing filters DO NOT recalculate scores based on the evaluations that meet these requirements. They narrow the list of solutions to show the vendors and solutions that can meet a specific need.
This data is based on interviews with a sample of the firms' recent clients. As a result, it is not necessarily comprehensive of all work a firm may do in this segment.
We require a minimum of 2 confirmations of a service performed in the last 3 years for a solution to qualify.
