[edit]

Although this diagram is meant to be qualitative, some effort went into the quantitative analysis too. The justification for the splits are a Forrester paper showing that the total cost of cloud computing deployments were 1/3 of that of traditional systems[1] and a CIO magazine article showing that variable costs traditionally account for 30-35% of overall spend[2].
