Hybrid-influenced vendors respond to customer demands, including limited vendor lock-in and seamless, secure integrations

Hybrid-influenced vendors sit in a high-growth market as they rely on proprietary infrastructure to architect in-demand hybrid solutions. Microsoft (Nasdaq: MSFT) is separating itself from much of the market as many enterprises use Office 365 in a hybrid environment and as the vendor wins legacy VMware (NYSE: VMW), Oracle (NYSE: ORCL) and SAP (NYSE: SAP) workloads. Among vendors competing for legacy workloads, TBR expects Amazon Web Services’ hybrid-influenced revenue will continue to grow as the vendor strongly competes against Microsoft for the enterprise migrations.
