This IDC study provides a detailed description of IDC's cloud system software market taxonomy. This taxonomy provides technology definitions as well as a description of IDC's approach to segmenting the cloud software market. IDC's cloud system software taxonomy is the basis for IDC cloud system software research studies worldwide.

"IDC's cloud system software taxonomy presents an initial view of an effort to define and categorize the various components that compose cloud system software," says Gary Chen, research manager, Virtualization and Cloud System Software. "The cloud systems marketplace is currently developing very rapidly but is also very confusing as various parts of the industry use very different terms to describe cloud system software."
