Cloud Computing in Aerospace, Defense and Security (ADS) Sector – Thematic Intelligence

Cloud Computing in Aerospace, Defense, and Security (ADS) Sector Report Overview

Cloud computing has transformed the way companies operating in the aerospace, defense, and security (ADS) sector consume IT resources. This technology has enabled shared IT infrastructure and services, which create a flexible, scalable, and on-demand IT environment. This approach is significantly more resource efficient and cost-effective than traditional IT, where companies had to invest heavily in on-premise IT infrastructure.

The enterprise spending on cloud services in 2021 amounted to $340.4 billion and is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of more than 17% between 2021 and 2026.

This cloud computing in Aerospace, Defense, and Security (ADS) sector report provides an overview of the cloud computing theme, outlining advances in technology and key programs, highlighting emerging market trends and providing insight into current procurement or research trends. The report also covers case studies showcasing how companies in the ADS sector are adopting cloud.

Cloud Computing in the Aerospace, Defense, and Security (ADS) Sector – Value Chain Insights

The main components in the cloud computing value chain comprise of cloud computing stack and cloud professional services. The cloud computing stack comprises of cloud services including Software as a Service (SaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). Cloud professional services, on the other hand, include cloud brokerage, cloud integration, and managed cloud services.

Cloud services (PaaS and IaaS): In the IaaS and PaaS markets, traditional IT stack infrastructure vendors, specializing in everything from databases and operating systems to virtualization, computing, storage, and networking, face competition from public cloud service providers. The latter use subscription-based, pay-as-you-use business models to offer a full portfolio of IT infrastructure, as well as tools and platforms for application developers.

Cloud Computing in the Aerospace, Defense, and Security (ADS) Sector – Market Dynamics

Cloud computing in ADS Sector Drivers: The sector’s largest companies and prime contractors such as Boeing, Raytheon Technologies, and Northrop Grumman should consider investing in almost all components of the cloud value chain as they continue to develop their information services business units. This allows them to invest in cloud technology within their own business while offering cloud services to other companies in the sector. Meanwhile, smaller subcontractors, suppliers, and end-users (such as militaries) should invest in cloud technology for their own operations. However, these companies should seek partnerships with technology vendors for the cloud services to have fewer resources allocated to this.

Cloud computing in ADS Sector Challenges: Cloud computing has been influential in solving the key challenges faced by the ADS sector. Some of the most common limitations to the growth of cloud computing in the ADS sector includes the adverse impact of competing budgets, COVID-19, data deluge, geopolitics, and ESG. Although cloud technology offers cost advantages in these aspects, cloud migration and integration with existing systems can be significant expenses for ADS players. For example, the sensitive nature of ADS companies’ data has tended to create siloes. While this increases security, it can make cloud migration a costly process.
