However, there are already many smaller players sprouting (e.g. RackSpace, etc.). Hence, before the market evolves to phase 2, there's going to be a proliferation of more cloud infrastructure (albeit smaller than the big boys) or platform players, esp. cloud storage. Phase 2: this phase is already beginning to form. We have players like RightScale and CohesiveFT forming around the eco-system of Amazon EC2. This is kinda like smaller fish swarming around the larger whales. Phase 3: definitely going to happen within 2 years. Many of the smaller players in phase 1 are going to leverage on their eco-system partners in phase 2 to create federated cloud standards and frameworks to make phase 3 happen. This will be accelerated by larger enterprises crying out for private clouds.
