The dominant share of small and medium enterprises When you think in terms of organization size, the cloud application market is divided into large enterprises and smes (small and medium enterprises). The small and medium enterprises used to account for about $57.0 billion in revenue in 2018, and now, they are projected to increase at nearly 19% by the year 2026. This growth has been widely credited to the considerable growth in the use of cloud-based applications by the small and medium enterprises.

The following are the solution-based cloud applications market divisions: Supply chain management Business analytics and intelligence Content management Human capital management Enterprise resource management Customer relationship management Though all of these segments have been influenced to some degree by the cloud computing market, the supply chain management deserves a special mention in terms of its projected growth.
The profitability of consumer goods and retail In terms of verticals, the cloud application market is segregated into sections, such as: Healthcare and life sciences Retail and consumer goods Energy and utilities Transportation and logistics Travel and hospitality Telecommunications Out of all these sections, the two that need special mention are healthcare and retail and consumer goods. The healthcare sector, in terms of its importance in the ongoing pandemic situation, and the retail and consumer goods segment, for its share in the cloud applications market, have taken greater significance in this division.
The Healthcare sector leading the cloud investments The healthcare sector requires secured and scalable cloud infrastructure for managing and maintaining patient information with a high degree of flexibility and speed. With the pandemic situation going from bad to worse, there is an immediate requirement for advanced technologies, such as cloud computing to analyze crucial patient data. As the amount of electronic health records held by the organization is on the rise, the healthcare providers are increasing their use of highly secure and scalable cloud solutions to cater to a considerable high number of cases. Healthcare institutes and private doctors are offering online consultation amongst country-wide lockdowns. The virus outbreak has also increased the demand for mobile ambulance services. All of these services and facilities require cloud-based collaboration and communication platforms for improving employee productivity and operational efficiency.
A Geographical analysis of the major players in the market Depending on the region, if we take the regions as Asia Pacific, Europe, North America, Latin America, Middle East and Africa, the rate of disaster recovery has not been the same all over. However, the adoption of cloud applications have uniformly increased across the world. The Asia-Pacific market for cloud applications has to be especially mentioned here because of its huge growth in the user base for cloud computing. This growth mainly stems from an increased awareness about the benefit of cloud applications in the countries like South Korea, India, and China. The top players in each of these countries have realized the potential of cloud applications. Speaking of top players, some of the top names that have had an increased adoption of cloud computing technologies include Google, Microsoft Corporation, Oracle, Salesforce, Adobe, IBM, and SAP.
SaaS solutions to hold a considerable size of the market The bottom line In terms of technology, SaaS (software as a service) solution part of the market is expected to have a larger market size in this period. Cloud software solutions faced a major hit with the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic. But, the organizations changed their focus and started relying more on cloud automation. They strengthened their online existence by developing ecommerce sites on cloud platforms for decreasing the impact of the pandemic on operational efficiency and productivity. With an increasing number of businesses considering to shift permanently to remote working facilities and the customers being more dependent on the online solutions, the rise in the demand for cloud applications is a given. As mentioned previously, the growth has been seen in all the sectors, with the only difference being in the percentage of growth. It can be summed up without a doubt that the cloud applications market has been positively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.
