The increasing adoption of cloud computing services is expected to drive the growth of the cloud FinOps market in the coming years. Cloud computing services involve delivering computing resources such as servers, storage, databases, networking, software, and analytics over the internet on a pay-as-you-go basis, offering scalable, flexible, and on-demand access without requiring physical infrastructure. The growing use of cloud computing services is driven by its cost-effectiveness, as organizations can lower expenses on physical infrastructure, maintenance, and IT staffing by paying only for the resources they consume. Cloud financial operations enhance cloud computing services by providing visibility, cost optimization, and strategic management, helping organizations maximize efficiency and business value from their cloud investments. For example, in April 2025, according to the American Bar Association, a U.S.-based professional organization, around 75% of attorneys reported using cloud computing for work-related tasks, up from 69% in 2023 and approximately 70% in 2022. Thus, the growing adoption of cloud computing services is fueling the expansion of the cloud financial operations market.
