A Custom Technology Adoption Profile Commissioned By Canonical
Get More From The Cloud With The Right Platform Approach
As enterprises expand their use of cloud platforms for increasingly complex workloads such as big data
and analytics, speed is key to driving business results. A cloud platform that offers a more flexible, elastic
approach for scale-out, supported by reliability, high performance, and the ability to scale up to support
increasing volumes of data will help them get there.
In December 2015, Canonical commissioned Forrester Consulting to explore enterprise cloud platform
trends and adoption. Forrester aggregated existing data from its global Business Technographics®
surveys and conducted an auxiliary custom survey among a similar audience to create this profile.

Conclusions
Cloud has entered the mainstream, and enterprises are expanding their use of cloud platforms with more
complex applications and workloads. Cloud expansion requires a secure, reliable, and cost-effective
platform to help firms drive business results quickly. Infrastructure professionals need the ability to deploy
new solutions quickly and easily, at scale, with a platform that meets their needs today and in the future.
