Service providers help companies assemble unique combinations of public and private clouds and colocation resources, ISG Provider Lens™ report says
SYDNEY, July 19 (Bernama-BUSINESS WIRE) -- Enterprises in Asia Pacific are turning to hybrid cloud and data center services to meet specialized business, legal, cultural and IT requirements, according to a new research report published today by Information Services Group (ISG) (Nasdaq: III), a leading global technology research and advisory firm.The 2024 ISG Provider Lens™ Private/Hybrid Cloud — Data Center Solutions report for Asia Pacific, which covers Australia, New Zealand, Southeast Asia and India, finds that various combinations of public, private and on-premises data centers are ideal for most companies in the region.
“There is no one right or wrong approach to data center resources,” said Michael Gale, partner and regional leader, ISG Asia Pacific. “The best strategy is the one that is most effective for each organization.”
Cloud and data center choices in the region are largely shaped by factors such as cost, security, data privacy and interoperability requirements, the report says. Access to computing power for generative AI (GenAI) has become another key consideration. Conditions unique to certain parts of Asia Pacific influence companies’ decisions, especially because costs, network capacity and access to experienced labor vary widely across the region. In some cases, complex geopolitical issues affect which networks enterprises can use and where their data can be stored.
Companies struggling to manage IT budgets and resources are turning to managed services providers for help in migrating applications to the right IT architectures, ISG says. These must meet requirements for server downtime, data loss and other factors. Increasingly, enterprises want to automate operations through AI and ML technologies to boost efficiency and cut costs.
