With the continuous development of the real economy and digital China, digital transformation will become an inevitable choice for the development of the real economy, and also the general trend of economic and social development.
At present, the domestic cloud computing industry is going through the early stage of development, entering a new cycle, and bringing significant changes in market structure, customer structure and other aspects. On the demand side, traditional enterprise customers are replacing Internet customers as the main driving force for the growth of demand in the domestic cloud computing market, and cloud platform manufacturers are required to have a completely different capability model than in the past. On the supply side, the operator cloud, relying on the advantages of infrastructure cost and breadth, has gradually gained share in the IaaS layer, and achieved rapid accumulation of users in the government and enterprise fields, driving the growth of demand for domestic ARM servers, first-tier city data centers, etc. Internet manufacturers still have advantages in PaaS, SaaS, ecological construction and other fields relying on software capabilities. It is expected that the domestic cloud computing market competition will continue to become fierce in the medium term and will significantly extend the overall profit cycle of the industry.
According to Gartner, the global public cloud market will reach US $330.7 billion in 2021,+32.4% year-on-year. According to Forrester's prediction, the global public cloud market is expected to reach US $1 trillion in 2026, and the CAGR will be about 25% in 2021-2026. According to IDC, the size of China's public cloud market will reach 27.52 billion US dollars in 2021, with IaaS, PaaS and SaaS accounting for 62%, 15% and 23% respectively. According to IDC forecast, the CAGR of China's public cloud market will exceed 30% in 2022-2026.
CITIC Securities pointed out that in recent years, the three major operators have focused on the development of cloud computing and promoted institutional reform. With the comprehensive advantages of cloud network integration, security and credibility, the cloud computing revenue of operators has increased rapidly, and the industry competitiveness and status have been significantly improved. At present, operators have prominent advantages in IaaS by virtue of the improvement of underlying infrastructure, and continue to improve the comprehensive competitiveness of PaaS and SaaS by strengthening self-research, building ecology, and channel sinking. In the future, it is expected that the growth rate of cloud computing of operators will continue to lead the way. It is expected that with the increase of revenue and the improvement of profitability, the independent valuation of cloud computing will bring the market value flexibility of 100 billion yuan to operators.
Comments: The development trend of the platform economy is improving in the near future, or the cloud investment is gradually increased. At present, the valuation of cloud computing companies is at a low level. Telecom operators and their cloud computing, data element industry chain companies, industrial Internet and the phased array radar microwave component industry chain related to military communications may be paid attention to by funds.
