核心提示：公有云、私有云还是混合云将成为主流？不同人有不同看法，而无疑OpenStack的巨大收入则是依靠其私有云。

451 Research的最新研究数据显示，到2020年OpenStack的商业模式收入预计将超过50亿美元(40.8亿英镑)，以35%的复合年增长率增长。

该数字与最近OpenStack峰会的前一天发布的数字相吻合，确切的是到2018年35亿美元，2019年46亿美元以及2020年达到57亿美元。

451 Research的副总裁 Al Sadowski说，“我们认为，市场仍处于企业使用和增加营收的早期阶段。我们预计所有部门和区域的收入都将增加，特别是那些来自OpenStack产品和分布范畴针对的目标企业。”

OpenStack的成功将来自于私有云

与DevOps、PaaS和大数据等传统的用户案例相比，研究公司更看到了软件定义网络(SDN)、网络功能虚拟化(NFV)、移动和物联网的显著优势。

根据研究公司调查，他们主要的用户群仍然是企业寻求在私有云环境中部署与运行应用程序，然而这对那些已经使用超大型云供应商，以及其遗留应用程序的IT部门的吸引力有限。

这些数字，再加上OpenStack本月早些时候公布的数据，引起了人们的兴趣。根据OpenStack用户群数据显示，被78%的受访者引用的容器技术，SDN和NFV(61%)和裸金属(56%)是人们感兴趣的主要技术。

但451 Research也警告说,虽然容器软件对OpenStack来说是最有益的且互补强，但“对手对他们的管理和容器技术的持续关注可能对OpenStack非常不利，类似于OpenStack通过关注竞争对手CloudStack的管理思想，最后在市场份额上成为了主角。”

OpenStack revenues to exceed $5bn by 2020 – with private cloud the lynchpin

Revenues from OpenStack business models will surpass $5 billion (£4.08bn) by 2020 and grow at a CAGR of 35%, according to the latest figures from 451 Research.

The numbers, which are being released to coincide with the day before the latest OpenStack Summit, puts the exact figure at $5.7bn by 2020, from $4.6bn the previous year and $3.5bn in 2018.

“We continue to believe the market is still in the early stages of enterprise use and revenue generation,” said Al Sadowski, research vice president at 451 Research. “We expect an uptick in revenues from all sectors and geographic regions, especially from those companies in the OpenStack Products and Distributions category that are targeting enterprises.”

OpenStack will see success is in the private cloud space.

Alongside more traditional use cases, such as DevOps, platform as a service (PaaS) and big data, the research firm sees significant benefits with regard to software defined networking (SDN), network function virtualisation (NFV), mobile, and the Internet of Things.

The primary user base, according to the research firm, remains enterprises looking to deploy cloud-native applications in private cloud environments, with “limited” appeal for organisations who are already using hyperscale cloud providers, as well as on legacy applications.

These figures make for interesting reading alongside those put out by OpenStack themselves earlier this month. According to data taken from the OpenStack user base, containers – cited by 78% of respondents – SDN and NFV (61%) and bare metal (56%). are the primary technologies of interest going forward.

451 warns that while container software is ‘mostly’ beneficial and complementary to OpenStack, “persistent attention to containers and their management threatens to eclipse OpenStack, similar to how OpenStack surpassed its rival CloudStack in mindshare and then market share.”
