Methodology
- The cloudscape is a snapshot of the local SaaS, PaaS and IaaS provider landscape. Although we strive to be as complete as possible, the cloudscape is an ongoing research effort. We will release updated versions of the cloudscape to reflect our growing database.
- The cloudscape is based on desk research.
- Only companies that have their worldwide HQ in the UK are eligible for the list.
- Only companies that sell (public) cloud services to the business market are included, we do not include consumer cloud. Companies that simply resell other vendor’s (public) cloud services are not included in our list.
We welcome your feedback on the list and on any UK public cloud players that we may have omitted.
