Analytics and Business Intelligence Platforms
Analytics and business intelligence platforms — enabled by IT and augmented by AI — empower users to model, analyze and share data. Analytics and business intelligence (ABI) platforms enable organizations to understand their data. For example, what are the dimensions of their data — such as product, customer, time, and geography? People need to be able to ask questions about their data (e.g., which customers are likely to churn? Which salespeople are not reaching their quotas?). They need to be able to create measures from their data, such as on-time delivery, accidents in the workplace and customer or employee satisfaction. Organizations need to blend modeled and nonmodeled data to create new data pipelines that can be explored to find anomalies and other insights. ABI platforms make all of this possible.

Cloud AI Developer Services
Gartner defines cloud AI developer services (CAIDS) as cloud-hosted or containerized services and products that enable software developers who are not data science experts to use artificial intelligence (AI) models via APIs, software development kits (SDKs) or applications. Core capabilities include automated machine learning (autoML) including automated data preparation, automated feature engineering and automated model building, and model management and operationalization for language, vision and tabular use cases. Optional and important complementary capabilities include AI code models and assistants. Cloud AI developer services help organizations embed intelligence, such as AI and ML insights, into their applications. While that is what cloud AI developer services offer, it is more important to note how they accomplish this. These services democratize and increase the availability of AI and ML to software engineers through the automation and features offered. Traditional activities regarding data acquisition, data quality, feature engineering, algorithm selection and model training are augmented by the technology. Cloud AI developer services open up a world of possibilities for software engineers to build AI and ML production capabilities and features for enterprise-built applications.

Cloud Database Management Systems
Gartner defines the market for cloud database management systems (DBMSs) as the market for software products that store and manipulate data and that are primarily delivered as software as a service (SaaS) in the cloud. Cloud DBMSs may optionally be capable of running on-premises, or in hybrid, multicloud or intercloud configurations. They can be used for transactional work and/or analytical work. They may have features that enable them to participate in a wider data ecosystem. Must-have capabilities for this market include: Availability as SaaS on provider-managed public or private cloud systems; Management of data within cloud storage — that is, cloud DBMSs are not hosted in infrastructure as a service (IaaS), such as in a virtual machine or a container managed by the customer.

Data Science and Machine Learning Platforms
Gartner defines a data science and machine learning platform as an integrated set of code-based libraries and low-code tooling that support the independent use by, and collaboration between, data scientists and their business and IT counterparts through all stages of the data science life cycle. These stages include business understanding, data access and preparation, experimentation and model creation, and sharing of insights. They also support machine learning engineering workflows including creation of data, feature, deployment and testing pipelines. The platforms are provided via desktop client or browser with supporting compute instances and/or as a fully managed cloud offering. Data science and machine learning (DSML) platforms are designed to allow a broad range of users to develop and apply a comprehensive set of predictive and prescriptive analytical techniques. Leveraging data from distributed sources, cutting-edge user experience, and native machine learning and generative AI (GenAI) capabilities, these platforms help to augment and automate decision making across an enterprise. They provide a range of proprietary and open-source tools to enable data scientists and domain experts to find patterns in data that can be used to forecast financial metrics, understand customer behavior, predict supply and demand, and many other use cases. Models can be built on all types of data, including tabular, images, video and text for applications that require computer vision or natural language processing.

Desktop as a Service
Gartner defines desktop as a service (DaaS) as the provision of virtual desktops by public cloud or other service providers. DaaS provides desktop or application end-user experiences from virtual machines (VMs) accessed using a remote display protocol. DaaS vendors incorporate a fully managed control plane service into their offerings, which facilitates user connections and provides a management interface. DaaS can be delivered preconfigured as a service. Alternatively, it can be delivered as a platform, in which case the client is responsible for assembly, configuration and management. DaaS is charged for using subscription- or usage-based payment structures. DaaS solutions allow remote workers, offshore workers, third-party employees, contractors, home workers and office workers to access virtual desktops hosted in the cloud. DaaS solutions include technology that enables centralized management of all VMs. DaaS virtual desktops can be configured for a variety of use cases associated with contact center workers, process workers, information workers, and workers who require high-performance computing or rich graphics.

Observability Platforms
Gartner defines observability platforms as products that ingest telemetry (operational data) from a variety of sources including, but not limited to, logs, metrics, events and traces. They are used to understand the health, performance and behavior of applications, services and infrastructure. Observability platforms enable an analysis of the telemetry, either via human operator or machine intelligence, to determine changes in system behavior that impact end-user experience such as outages or performance degradation. This allows for early, and even preemptive, problem remediation. Observability solutions are used by IT operations, site reliability engineers, cloud and platform teams, application developers, and product owners. Observability platforms are used by organizations to understand and improve the availability, performance and resilience of these critical applications and services. Investment in and successful deployment of observability platforms leads to revenue loss avoidance and enables faster product development cycles and improvements in brand perception.

Public Cloud Storage Services, Worldwide
Public cloud storage is infrastructure as a service (IaaS) that provides block, file, object and hybrid cloud storage services delivered through various protocols. The services are stand-alone, but often used in conjunction with compute and other IaaS products. The services are priced based on capacity, data transfer and/or number of requests. The services provide on-demand storage capacity and self-provisioning capabilities. Stored data exists in a multitenant environment, and users access that data through the block, network and REST protocols provided by the services.

Strategic Cloud Platform Services
Gartner defines strategic cloud platform services (SCPS) as standardized, automated, public cloud offerings integrating infrastructure services (e.g., computing, network and storage), platform services (e.g., application, data and value-added services such as AI/ML) and transformation services (resources to help customers adopt cloud-oriented IT delivery models). Although owned by the service provider, infrastructure and platform services may be hosted in providers’ infrastructures or customers’ data centers. Services should be elastically scalable, metered by use, and consumable via web-based interfaces and programmable APIs. Transformation programs may be delivered by automated, self-service interfaces, and managed interactions facilitated by account teams/partners.
