The UK 2020 Databerg report
Cloud adoption trends in the UK and recommendations for cloud migration

But research conducted by Veritas and Vanson Bourne in 2015 and 2020 shows that cloud adoption in organisations in the UK has not advanced as far as was predicted five years ago. With data volumes only continuing to grow, it will be necessary to regularly review cloud and data management strategies, as well as the tools in place, if future targets are to be met.
