In total, almost half (47%) used private cloud, compared with 17% utilising hybrid cloud, and the remaining 26% naturally staying on-premise.<\/p>\n<p>The study found discrepancies &ndash; 17% of firms polled in Belgium use public cloud, ahead of the European average &ndash; and some less surprising results. The business and consumer services (30%) and IT and computer services (21%) were most likely to lead the trend towards adoption of hybrid cloud, while banking and financial services were among the most likely to favour private cloud.<\/p>\n<p>Belgium, along with the UK, had the highest proportion of hybrid cloud users, with a 23% and 22% score respectively, while the government sector was most likely to opt for on-premise hosting (52%).<\/p>\n<p>Elsewhere, a study from managed public cloud provider 2nd Watch has revealed three in five US companies are currently engaged in a big data project, with a further 20% soon to begin one. The leading force behind big data projects is predominantly the CEO (32%), followed by the CIO (25%) and line of business managers (18%).<\/p>\n<p>The survey also revealed how strategic imperatives are changing to address the needs of big data deployments. Almost three quarters (71%) of those polled said their company had already adopted a new data warehouse or was considering purchasing one. Established enterprise database vendors, such as IBM (38%), Oracle (31%) and HP (24%) are the most likely choices.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(c)iStock.com\/Barcin<br \/>\nThe latest figures on European cloud computing adoption, this time from managed services provider Easynet, shows only one in 10 enterprises are using public cloud.<br \/>\nThe research, which polled 660 IT decision makers at companies with&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":50,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-15145","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/icloud.pe\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15145","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/icloud.pe\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/icloud.pe\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/icloud.pe\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/50"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/icloud.pe\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=15145"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/icloud.pe\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15145\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":15146,"href":"https:\/\/icloud.pe\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15145\/revisions\/15146"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/icloud.pe\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=15145"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/icloud.pe\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=15145"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/icloud.pe\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=15145"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
