In terms of specific rankings, the Amazon cloud computing platform ranks first in the Asia-Pacific region, Japan, East Asia, South and Southeast Asia, and Oceania.

In the Chinese market, Alibaba Cloud is currently ranked first, Tencent Cloud and Baidu Cloud are second and third respectively, and Amazon Cloud Computing, operated by Sinnet, is ranked fifth. The fourth and sixth places are China Telecom and China Unicom respectively.

“The challenge for local players is that in most ways cloud is a truly global market, requiring global presence, leading edge technology, strong brand name and credibility, extremely deep pockets and a long-term focus. For any local cloud companies looking to expand significantly beyond their home market, that is an extremely challenging proposition,” Dinsdale said in a statement.
