Gartner defines the market for cloud database management systems (DBMSs) as the market for software products that store and manipulate data, and that are primarily delivered as software as a service (SaaS) in the cloud. Cloud DBMSs may optionally be capable of running on-premises, or in hybrid, multicloud or intercloud configurations. They can be used for transactional work and/or analytical work. They may have features that enable them to participate in a wider data ecosystem.

Must-have capabilities for this market include:

Availability as SaaS on provider-managed public or private cloud systems.

Management of data within cloud storage — that is, cloud DBMSs are not hosted in infrastructure as a service (IaaS), such as in a virtual machine or a container managed by the customer.
