About the Topic: The Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) industry is a young one, but it has grown incredibly fast, revolutionizing the deployment of IT infrastructure, radically altering the business model, lowering the costs of entry, and empowering hundreds of entrepreneurs to shoe-string their tech venture. Amazon definitely got out of the gates first, and is the big dog in this hunt. While Amazon steadily adds to its portfolio of supported services while lowering costs, a number of other IaaS providers are differentiating their offerings and capturing notable market share.
Some differentiators include SSD faster storage, easier scale-up-down models, emphasis on processing or storage, five nines, low price, or specific application hosting expertise. The upshot is that there is no obvious single choice for IaaS, but that enterprises looking for hosting must analyze their business needs, their technology needs, then match that against the range of providers in the market.
Meanwhile, thanks to the NSA and the government espionage, there is increasing pressure to shift IaaS hosting to "more secure" locations. This pressure is forcing disruption in the industry, as well as changing the way cloud providers do business.
