The ten market players in this report and a brief synopsis of their participation in the market are:
The Cloud Discovery Market, encompassing tools for identifying unauthorized cloud usage, shadow IT, and SaaS applications, is dominated by ten major companies leveraging AI-driven analytics and integration capabilities. Leading the pack are Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Microsoft Azure, which hold the largest market shares at 29% and 22% respectively, providing comprehensive discovery through services like AWS Config and Azure Resource Graph for real-time visibility into hybrid environments. Google Cloud Platform (GCP) follows with 12% share, excelling in AI-powered discovery via tools like Cloud Asset Inventory, ideal for data analytics-heavy enterprises. Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) ranks high with advanced discovery features in its native management console, supporting multicloud strategies alongside partnerships with AWS and GCP. These hyperscalers dominate due to scalable infrastructure and seamless integration, capturing over 63% of the global market as of Q1 2025.
Complementing the hyperscalers, IBM Cloud secures a strong position with 2% market share, focusing on hybrid discovery solutions that blend AI, machine learning, and multicloud orchestration for legacy system migrations. DigitalOcean appeals to developers and SMBs with straightforward discovery tools in its pay-as-you-go model, emphasizing simplicity for Droplets and managed databases. Tencent Cloud, also at 2% share, shines in APAC with edge/CDN-enhanced discovery for regional compliance and media workloads. Cisco Systems leverages its networking expertise for hybrid cloud discovery, embedding security and threat detection in platforms like AppDynamics. Dell Technologies provides enterprise-grade discovery via VMware-integrated multi-cloud platforms, prioritizing storage and data protection. These players address niche needs like sovereignty and developer-friendliness, expanding beyond pure IaaS into observability.
Emerging challengers like Rackspace and OVHcloud round out the top ten, offering managed discovery services with cost transparency and European data residency for GDPR compliance. Rackspace excels in multi-cloud orchestration, while OVHcloud provides sovereign options with strong networking. Collectively, these companies drive innovation through AI anomaly detection, predictive analytics, and end-to-end visibility, enabling proactive shadow IT management amid rising AI workloads. The market's competitive landscape favors hyperscalers for scale, but specialists gain traction in regulated sectors, with ongoing expansions like Tencent's global data centers and Oracle's energy-efficient databases fueling growth into 2025. This blend ensures robust discovery across diverse deployments, from edge to enterprise clouds.
