IDC Survey: European Print and Document Management-Related Security

Gala Spasova, Jacqui Hendriks — Tue, 28 Jul 2026 04:00:00 GMT

This IDC Survey document presents findings from IDC’s European Imaging, Printing, and Document Solutions Survey, conducted in April 2026 among 2,057 respondents across Europe. It examines the current landscape of print and document management–related security, including the prevalence of security breaches and how risk is evolving across organizations.

The research explores the growing importance of device-level vulnerabilities alongside document-related risks and assesses how organizations are responding through a range of security controls. It also highlights ongoing gaps between where risks originate and how security investments are being prioritized.

IDC's Worldwide: Dedicated Cloud Infrastructure and Services Taxonomy, 2026

Tue, 28 Jul 2026 04:00:00 GMT

This IDC study provides a detailed taxonomy for the dedicated cloud infrastructure and services market. The document covers the definitions of various building blocks and provides a top-level overview of dedicated cloud segments. IDC is retiring the term private cloud and replacing it with the term dedicated cloud, but the definition remains the same: environments in which IT resources are dedicated to a single organization and managed and delivered to end users utilizing cloud attributes. The growing availability of commercial and open source cloud platforms enables the increasing adoption of dedicated clouds by enterprises, while the proliferation of infrastructure management platforms for managing resources across multiple environments drives the expanding growth of hybrid IT environments.

"Dedicated cloud infrastructure as a service has become the defining ground for the enterprises seeking operational control over data placement, compliance posture, or workload governance," said Jasdeep Singh, research manager for IDC's Cloud and Infrastructure Services. "As OEM vendors, cloud service providers, and managed service providers compete in this market, the conversation has shifted from who can build the cloud to who can govern it, on the customer's terms, at the customer's choice of location, and in compliance with their regulatory and AI risk realities."

Nuclear’s Colocation Moment: Reading the Signal Behind the July 2026 Criticality Milestones

Olga Yashkova — Tue, 28 Jul 2026 04:00:00 GMT

This IDC Market Perspective examines how Executive Order 14301 and the Department of Energy’s accelerated Reactor Pilot Program, which saw four advanced reactors achieve criticality by July 4, 2026, are reshaping colocation providers’ energy strategies. It highlights nuclear’s emerging role alongside renewables, evolving financing models, and the execution risks datacenter operators face as they pursue small modular reactor (SMR) power to address grid constraints, sustainability goals, and regulatory changes.

“We are seeing real momentum behind nuclear in the datacenter clean energy mix, and hitting four criticality milestones ahead of the July 4 deadline is a meaningful proof point. But there’s still a gap between a test reactor going critical and a commercial reactor delivering power to a live campus. That said, the timeline for closing that gap looks shorter than it did even a year ago,” says Olga Yashkova, research manager, Worldwide Telecommunications Services, IDC.

Expanding Enterprise Intelligence: IDC’s Future Enterprise Planning Guide

Stewart Bond — Mon, 27 Jul 2026 04:00:00 GMT

This IDC Tech Buyer Presentation provides tech leaders guidance on key considerations for their organization’s enterprise intelligence. Leaders will find steps on framework and strategy, developing key goals and objectives, assessing capabilities, and pursuing ways to fill any gaps. Strategic planning can help modern businesses develop and deliver intelligence to the right decision-makers in a timely fashion. The full value of data is realized only when it is used in business activities, delivering required business outcomes that are driven and informed by data.

IDC finds that many organizations’ struggles with AI implementations are driving a shift toward concentrating investments on data. Enterprise intelligence strategy is key in these efforts to achieve AI-ready data. “Enterprise intelligence relies on data for analytics and decision-making, but definition and context, including relevance, are required to ensure the right data is being used, “ says Stewart Bond, vice president, Data Intelligence and Integration Software Research at IDC. “The foundation of enterprise intelligence is data intelligence. Intelligence about data supports and informs every data-driven learning, analytics, decision, action, and outcome.”

IDC Survey Spotlight: Can IT Service Providers Fill the Gap in Asia/Pacific’s Agentic AI Platform Strategy?

IDC Survey Spotlight: How Are Enterprises Upgrading the Edge to Support AI and ML Workloads?

Olga Yashkova — Mon, 27 Jul 2026 04:00:00 GMT

This IDC Survey Spotlight highlights the results of IDC’s 2025 EdgeView Survey. Enterprises know that not all of their edge locations are ready for AI. IDC’s 2025 EdgeView Survey (n = 800) asked enterprise IT leaders what it will take to run AI and ML workloads at the edge, and the answers point to a buildout most organizations are not equipped to handle alone. IDC believes colocation will play an increasingly important role in enabling faster deployment of accelerator-heavy edge AI workloads, while enterprises modernize their distributed infrastructure footprints.
