IDC data indicates that upskilling and developing the technology team are consistent priorities for technology leaders. Team development is built around individual development plans that align the talent and interests of technology team members with the evolving needs of the organization in an intentional and consistent way. </P><P>“Developing the skills and capabilities of the technology team is one of the most important roles of technology leaders,” says Niel Nickolaisen, adjunct research advisor for IDC’s IT Executive Programs (IEP). “Team development creates a win-win-win. The members of the team win by improving their skills and careers. The organization wins by having a more skilled and capable technology department. The technology leader wins by shifting focus from operations and tactics to the strategic technology future of the organization.”</P> IDC Perspective Tue, 16 Jun 2026 04:00:00 GMT Niel Nickolaisen https://my.idc.com/getdoc.jsp?containerId=META53999526&utm_medium=rss_feed&utm_source=alert&utm_campaign=rss_syndication <P>IDC’s 2025 <I>EMEA Partner Survey</I> (Saudi Arabia responses) was conducted to provide IT services providers with actionable insights into:</P><UL><LI>The evolution of IT services provider revenue models, including the shift from reselling to professional, managed, and ecosystem-driven services</LI><LI>Key revenue drivers across customer segments and technology priorities, such as cybersecurity, cloud, AI, and cost optimization</LI><LI>The role of ecosystem partnerships, vendor engagements, and marketplaces in enabling revenue scale and indirect monetization</LI><LI>Engagement across the technology-buyer journey, including stakeholder influence and the opportunity to expand consulting-led and early-stage involvement</LI><LI>Customer priorities and concerns, including risks, regulatory pressures, and economic uncertainties, and their impact on services demand and investment decisions</LI></UL> IDC Survey Tue, 16 Jun 2026 04:00:00 GMT Eric Samuel, Uzair Mujtaba https://my.idc.com/getdoc.jsp?containerId=US54585626&utm_medium=rss_feed&utm_source=alert&utm_campaign=rss_syndication <P>This IDC Perspective examines the relationship between Industrial DataOps platforms and key industrial transformation initiatives. Industrial enterprises have wrestled with data quality and accessibility challenges for many years. As next-generation automation capabilities, AI in its numerous forms, and increasingly demanding business conditions create pressure to leverage data more effectively, Industrial DataOps platforms are proving themselves as the essential enabling infrastructure to adopt new technologies at scale.</P><P>“I think, five years ago, most companies thought of data engineering tools as interesting but unnecessary master data management middleware solutions,” says Jonathan Lang, research director, Worldwide IT/OT Convergence Strategies at IDC. “Now, they’re finally realizing that bespoke data integration will not serve any major technology movement effectively at scale. The criticality and timeliness of Industrial DataOps platforms cannot be overstated for enterprises seeking to capitalize on current and future technology capabilities.”</P> IDC Perspective Tue, 16 Jun 2026 04:00:00 GMT Jonathan Lang https://my.idc.com/getdoc.jsp?containerId=JPJ53504426&utm_medium=rss_feed&utm_source=alert&utm_campaign=rss_syndication <P>本調査レポートは、国内クラウド向けITサービス市場について、ベンダーおよびユーザー動向を調査し、包括的にまとめたものである。IDCではITサービス市場およびクラウドサービス市場の動向を整理し、「クラウド向けITサービス」の市場定義を策定し、同定義に基づき、需要サイド方法論を用いて、企業／公共機関／団体／個人における同サービス支出額から市場規模の算出、予測を行っている。</P><P>「国内企業のAI（Artificial Intelligence）利用目的が「効率化」から「価値創造」へシフトするにつれ、AIエージェントの稼働基盤としてクラウドの重要性はいっそう高まるであろう。その際に「ITサービスベンダーは、複数のAIエージェントや既存システムを連携させるクラウドアーキテクチャの設計力に加え、AIエージェントのガバナンス設計能力、その稼働基盤を健全に維持するための包括的なクラウドマネージドサービスを提供するケイパビリティが求められる」と、IDC Japan、Software, Services, and IT Spendingのリサーチアナリストである曽我 龍宏は述べている。</P> Market Presentation Tue, 16 Jun 2026 04:00:00 GMT Tatsuhiro Soga https://my.idc.com/getdoc.jsp?containerId=EUR154583126&utm_medium=rss_feed&utm_source=alert&utm_campaign=rss_syndication <P>This IDC Market Presentation summarizes key events that took place in the European tier 2 and tier 3 service provider market in 1Q26.</P> Market Presentation Mon, 15 Jun 2026 04:00:00 GMT Matthew Wilkins https://my.idc.com/getdoc.jsp?containerId=US53976726&utm_medium=rss_feed&utm_source=alert&utm_campaign=rss_syndication <P>This Market Glance provides a concise taxonomy of customer data applications and examines the evolution of this ecosystem for marketing, advertising, sales, customer service, commerce, and other customer experience (CX) functions.</P><P>Customer data applications serve as the core foundation for intelligent CX. They define what humans and AI agents can reliably know about a customer in context, how quickly that understanding can change, and which actions are appropriate in a given interaction.</P><P>As organizations deploy AI agents and AI-based decision flows, outcomes will increasingly depend on the quality, contextual depth, and real-time readiness of the customer data application layer. Vendors that make this layer and its software components an explainable basis for AI-led engagements will be positioned to capture a growing share of CX technology spend.</P> Market Presentation Mon, 15 Jun 2026 04:00:00 GMT Tapan Patel https://my.idc.com/getdoc.jsp?containerId=EUR153395626&utm_medium=rss_feed&utm_source=alert&utm_campaign=rss_syndication <P>This IDC Survey presents findings from IDC's <I>European Imaging, Printing, and Document Solutions </I><I>(IPDS) </I><I>Survey</I>, conducted in April 2026 among 2,057 respondents across Europe.
