Summary

In 2022 and early 2023, Forrester published a series of Landscape reports and Forrester Wave™ vendor evaluations for public cloud. In the Forrester Waves, we researched, analyzed, and scored public cloud platform providers, providing cloud leaders with evaluations of the most important vendors in the US, Europe, Asia Pacific, and China. However, technology leaders must consider additional factors when making a final purchasing decision. This report provides a breakdown of the elements involved in a public cloud selection and identifies the criteria you must leverage.
