IDC Survey Spotlight: How Can Managed SPs Assist Organizations in Mitigating the Challenges in Using a Multicloud Approach?

David Tapper — Fri, 22 May 2026 04:00:00 GMT

This IDC Survey Spotlight highlights the results from the following two questions posed to 180 respondents and firms with over 500 employees across multiple countries and industries, as part of IDC's 2025 Worldwide Services Path Survey: "Benefits of Multicloud. Please select the top 2 benefits for which your company/organization would want a managed SP to achieve when supporting a multicloud approach; and Challenges for Multicloud. Please select the 2 challenges for which your company/organization would require a managed SP to address when supporting a multicloud approach." IDC's definition of a multicloud approach involves deploying the same process (e.g., DevOps, CI/CD, recovery), management approach (e.g., containers, APIs), technology solutions (e.g. software, hardware) and/or protocols and procedures (e.g., security, compliance) across two or more public cloud IaaS providers (e.g., AWS, Google, Azure, IBM, Alibaba). This IDC Survey Spotlight then highlights how managed SPs need to mitigate the top key challenges that involve the need to align all users to utilize the same approach, maintaining pace with required changes to be deployed on public IaaS clouds and reducing complexity in managing distributed resources.

NAB 2026 Insights and Observations

Alex Holtz — Fri, 22 May 2026 04:00:00 GMT

This IDC Perspective details NAB 2026 insights and observations. NAB 2026 marked a decisive shift for the media industry from technology experimentation to operational maturity, with agentic AI, hybrid architectures, and orchestration now foundational to scalable, resilient, and monetizable workflows. The focus has moved from adopting individual technologies to integrating them into unified, governable models, emphasizing execution, trust, and business outcomes over novelty. Leading vendors showcased agent-driven solutions that automate, optimize, and connect production, distribution, and monetization, signaling a new era of intelligence-driven media operations.

"As media enters a phase of operational maturity, the question is no longer which technology to adopt, but how intelligently do we integrate AI, cloud, and hybrid architectures to scale, monetize, and govern content. Execution, not innovation, now defines leadership in the media industry." — Alex Holtz, research director, Worldwide Media and Entertainment Digital Strategies

Eren Eser — Fri, 22 May 2026 04:00:00 GMT

This IDC Market Note summarizes the key themes and consequential implications from SAP Connect Day Istanbul 2026, held on April 8, 2026. The event brought together SAP customers, partners, and leaders in Türkiye to discuss AI-powered enterprise transformation across finance, supply chain, data, and industry-specific use cases. The document contextualizes the event within SAP’s broader global strategy and the evolving Turkish market landscape.

“Türkiye is emerging as an important market for SAP’s AI and cloud strategy. SAP Connect Day Istanbul demonstrated that Turkish enterprises are not only ready for AI-powered transformation, but are already leading in specific areas. The runway for establishing new AI-driven operating models is short. Organizations that act decisively now will define the competitive landscape for years to come,” said Eren Eser, associate research director, IDC’s Global Services Insights.

What the 2026 EMEA Analyst Forum Reveals About AWS' Strategy, AI Ambition, and Execution Gaps in META

Uzair Mujtaba — Fri, 22 May 2026 04:00:00 GMT

This IDC Market Note discusses AWS' 2026 EMEA Analyst Forum, which highlighted the company's intensified focus in the Middle East, Turkey, and Africa (META), positioning it as a transformation partner backed by large-scale infrastructure investment, the Humain AI Factory partnership in Saudi Arabia, and AI-powered modernization tooling. AWS' regional ambition is credible, though talent constraints and evolving regulatory frameworks require attention. The forum reinforced three priorities: migration and data modernization as prerequisites for AI adoption, agentic AI as an emerging services battleground, and sovereignty approaches calibrated to META's distinct regulatory requirements.

IDC Survey: European Trends in Application Modernization with Cloud — Getting Ready for AI

Carla Arend — Thu, 21 May 2026 04:00:00 GMT

This IDC Survey examines how European organizations are approaching application modernization with cloud to get ready for AI. The findings show that performance, security, and future requirements are driving modernization more than cost reduction alone. Demand is strongest in data-centric workloads, while rising public cloud adoption suggests that modernization is extending across a broader share of the application portfolio. Organizations are favoring pragmatic paths such as replatforming and rehosting, but progress remains constrained by security, migration, and legacy complexity. AI agents are beginning to influence selected modernization domains, creating opportunities for providers that can reduce risk and support flexible transformation paths.

Red Hat Summit 2026: Stable Infrastructure in an Unstable AI World

Adam Resnick — Thu, 21 May 2026 04:00:00 GMT

At Summit 2026, Red Hat made the case that the infrastructure layer is where enterprise AI either scales or stalls, and that its platform is designed for that moment. In a model and tooling environment that is moving faster than most enterprises can absorb, Red Hat’s pitch is that a stable, vendor‑neutral infrastructure stack is the durable asset. For platform engineers and IT automation engineers, the announcements describe a redefinition of the role, from executing operations to governing the agents that execute them. Governance maturity and platform engineering capacity remain the variables that will determine how quickly enterprises can capture the value Red Hat is describing.
