The cloud services brokerage market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 16.9% to reach US$29.74 billion in 2029 from US$9.966 billion in 2022.

Cloud services brokerage refers to providing value and administering the various cloud-based services and solutions deployed by an enterprise or organization. Service intermediation, service arbitrage, workflow automation, integration, and aggregation are essential services offered by cloud services brokerage products to their customers, adopting private, public, and hybrid cloud-based services in their operations. Adopting internal and external cloud services brokerage software by an enterprise enables the reduction of ownership costs and integration of service management, enhances the flexibility of resources, provides unlimited access to cloud network infrastructure, and automates delivery systems in self-service modes. The extensive adoption of cloud services software across various industry verticals, including IT, retail, education, healthcare, telecommunication, BFSI, and other manufacturing sectors, is increasing the demand for cloud services brokerage platforms and software. Further, the increasing need to prevent technical accidents such as vendor lock-ins and growing cloud adoption across companies is propelling the growth of the cloud services brokerage market.

The growing adoption of cloud solutions by companies is significantly driving the cloud services brokerage market growth.

The rise in the adoption of cloud-based platforms and services by companies is increasing the need for cloud services brokerage products to administer the deployed cloud-based services. Companies operating in different industrial sectors are increasing the deployment of cloud-based services due to various advantages such as flexibility, reduced operational and capital expenditure reduction, and quicker access associated with cloud-based services. These cloud services allow customers to increase their productivity and efficiency gradually. However, the administration and management of these various cloud service models pose a difficulty to enterprises as the sophistication and complexity of cloud-based services rise, such as hybrid and multi-cloud networks. For instance, the State of APIs and Applications report published by Google in 2022 revealed that approximately 48% of enterprises had adopted a hybrid model for their cloud services. It becomes highly challenging for businesses to regularly monitor their dispersed IT services as an increasing number of enterprises subscribe to services from several CSPs to save money, creating a need for intermediates to handle all the challenges associated with cloud computing and service integration, such as cloud service brokerage platforms.

The absence of awareness about cloud-based services among several small enterprises and security problems associated with cloud-based services could restrict the growth of the cloud service brokerage market.

The various concerns associated with cloud-based services regarding security and size compatibility restrict their adoption among small enterprises that prefer to adopt on-premises services. The various cloud services and network solutions adopted by companies must be administered regularly to enhance network security and prevent data loss which increases the operational expenses of a company. Further, there is a general lack of knowledge among companies operating in various sectors and the presence of various cloud-based services that could assist them in their operations, further limiting the consumption of cloud services brokerage solutions.
