Gartner’s Magic Quadrant for IaaS

Gartner Magic Quadrant IaaS 2020

Gartner Magic Quadrant IaaS 2020

Great to see Microsoft up in the Leaders section of the Magic Quadrant. From Gartner:

In the context of this Magic Quadrant, cloud compute IaaS (hereafter referred to simply as “cloud IaaS” or “IaaS”) is defined as a standardized, highly automated offering, where compute resources, complemented by storage and networking capabilities, are owned by a service provider and offered to the customer on demand. The resources are scalable and elastic in near real time, and metered by use. Self-service interfaces are exposed directly to the customer, including a web-based UI and an API. The resources may be single-tenant or multitenant, and hosted by the service provider or on-premises in the customer’s data center.
