OpSource, Akamai Unite to Score a Slice of $56B Cloud Market Pie
Cloud-services platform provider OpSource and content-distribution kingpin Akamai today are announcing some details about strategic partnership that’s now a few months old. I wonder if the decision to go public was influenced by Gartner’s March 26 report predicting the cloud services market will top $56 billion this year and hit $150 billion by 2013. If Akamai and OpSource are trying to ride this wave of optimism, they certainly can’t be ridiculed for the decision.
