Market Overview:
The global retail cloud solutions market is expected to grow at a CAGR of over 20% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in the market can be attributed to the increasing demand for cloud-based solutions among retailers due to its numerous benefits such as scalability, flexibility, and cost-effectiveness. In addition, the growing trend of omni-channel retailing is also contributing significantly towards the growth of this market. Based on type, the global retail cloud solutions market can be segmented into software as a service (SaaS), platform as a service (PaaS), and infrastructure as a service (IaaS). Among these segments, SaaS held majority share in 2017 and is expected to maintain its dominance during the forecast period. This can be attributed to increasing demand for hosted applications among retailers due to their ease of use and low implementation costs. However, PaaS is projected to witness highest CAGR during 2018–2030 owing high adoption by small and mid-sized enterprises (SMES) across different regions.
Product Definition:
A retail cloud solution is a type of software that allows retailers to manage their sales and inventory processes through the use of an online interface. This type of software can help retailers keep track of their stock, process orders, and manage customer information. Retail cloud solutions are often used to improve communication between stores and head office, as well as improve order accuracy and stock management.
Software as A Service:
Software as a Service (SaaS) is a model in which the software is divided into two parts, namely the cloud and the client. The SaaS model offers several benefits such as on-demand availability of computing resources, easy data backup and recovery, minimal maintenance of IT infrastructure at both ends i.e.
Platform as A Service:
Platform as a Service (PaaS) is an infrastructure-as-a-service model that provides developers with both the software platform and the environment to develop, deploy, and run applications. PaaS eliminates the need for internal IT resources to manage servers, networks, storage devices etc., which reduces costs significantly. It also offers increased flexibility by allowing developers to switch between different cloud environments such as public, private or hybrid without having to re-install applications.
Application Insights:
The large enterprise segment accounted for the largest market share in 2017 and is expected to continue leading over the forecast period. The growth can be attributed to factors such as increasing demand for e-commerce solutions, growing preference for using cloud computing services, and need of managing inventory efficiently.
The small and mid-sized enterprises (SMEs) segment is anticipated to register a significant CAGR over the forecast period owing to increasing adoption of retail cloud solutions by these organizations. SMEs are adopting retail cloud computing services due to benefits such as scalability, cost savings, improved operational efficiency & reliability across departments within an organization. Furthermore, retailers are offering dedicated plans specifically designed for SMEs at low costs which further drives their adoption rate significantly every year since 2016.
Regional Analysis:
The Asia Pacific region is expected to emerge as the fastest-growing regional segment over the forecast period. The growth can be attributed to increasing adoption of cloud solutions by small and medium enterprises in countries such as China, India, and Australia. Furthermore, growing IT infrastructure spending in emerging economies of India and China is further anticipated to drive demand for retail cloud solutions over the next eight years.
North America accounted for a significant share owing to early adoption of technologies across various industries such as retail, telecom & media, transportation & logistics among others. Moreover, presence of key players such as Amazon Web Services Inc.; IBM Corporation; Microsoft Corporation; Hewlett Packard Enterprise Development LP; Salesforce Marketing Cloud LLC.; Oracle America Inc.; Cisco Systems Inc., among others has led North American market’s growth prospects over the forecast period as well.
