"Despite last year’s economic challenges, there has been considerable demand for the cloud as it becomes the foundation for innovation and a key enabler for leveraging AI. We anticipate robust investments across hardware, software, professional, and managed services as organizations (including governments) in the region aim to scale their digital economies. A major focus will also be on cloud cost optimization with the outlook to maximize utilization of cloud resources,” says Shouvik Nag, Senior Research Analyst, Cloud Research, IDC Asia/Pacific.
Since the last decade, cloud technologies have enabled innovation at scale and speed. The last few years have seen a shift towards leveraging cloud as an operating model and delivery platform; it will continue to play a critical but increasingly supporting role in enabling a rapid pivot to the AI everywhere era.
