Cloud Computing in Insurance Market Analysis Overview
Cloud computing refers to the provision of IT infrastructure and platform services to deliver a flexible, scalable, and on-demand IT environment. The cloud is now the dominant model for delivering and maintaining enterprise IT resources, including hardware, software, and platforms and tools for application developers. Key segments for the insurance sector include cloud services, specifically software as a service (SaaS), platform as a service (PaaS), and infrastructure as a service (IaaS).
Customer purchasing behavior is driving a need for more tailored products. Insurance products are becoming less standardized and increasingly bespoke to target specific audiences. The key characteristics of the cloud – scalability, agility, and speed – allow insurers to reduce their product development time. Applications can be developed, tested, rolled out, and maintained cost-effectively and efficiently.
The cloud computing in insurance market thematic intelligence report assesses how insurance, combined with other emerging technologies, can be used across the insurance value chain. It provides an overview of the current landscape, as well as key players, while also highlighting opportunities for the use of insurance in the future. The report provides an industry-specific analysis based on GlobalData databases and surveys.

Cloud Computing in Insurance- Value Chain Analysis
The cloud computing value chain consists of three segments- cloud infrastructure, cloud services, and cloud professional 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. Despite their incumbency, many traditional IT infrastructure vendors, including DXC Technology, Dell, and Fujitsu, now offer cloud-based, IT-as-a-service options alongside traditional IT solutions.
