May-23 DOC # META50677923 Insight
This IDC Market Note discusses relevant news, announcements, and themes from Oracle's CloudWorld 2023 event held in Abu Dhabi, UAE, on May 3, 2023.
"Public cloud adoption has increased in the Middle East. According to a recent IDC survey, most workloads that are now deployed in public clouds are not sensitive; they are generally for testing and development. Local organizations still prefer to deploy sensitive workloads and production applications in private clouds or on-premises datacenters. Oracle's decision to launch a dedicated cloud region for the UAE federal government, in partnership with Injazat, will help the hyperscaler gain share across regulated industries in the country." — Senior Research Analyst Nitesh Rathi, Software and Cloud Computing, IDC META

Jan-23 DOC # EUR147862122 Study
This IDC Market Forecast analyzes European IT spending between 2021 and 2026 as well as provides a market size, forecast, and key trends supporting technology investments by industry. This forecast is segmented by IDC's 20 standard vertical markets: banking, insurance, securities and investment services, discrete manufacturing, process manufacturing, retail, wholesale, professional services, personal and consumer services, healthcare provider, transportation, telecommunications, media, utilities, construction, resource industries, federal/central government, state/local government, education, and consumer.
"In 2022, Europe had to adapt to new challenges and unexpected change that required a new level of resilience. Just as European companies were healing from damage from the COVID-19 pandemic, they were called to face the effects of the Russia-Ukraine War, which reverberated across the European market, impacting both enterprises and consumers. Energy, oil, and gas price increases, high inflation, staff shortages, lack of skills, supply chain disruptions, and logistics challenges ensued this year," said Andrea Minonne, research manager, Data and Analytics at IDC UK. "With the cost of products and services going up, customers will become more price sensitive and raise their customer experience (CX) expectations, and all industries will have to meet those expectations. On the other hand, the increase of fixed and variable costs such as rent and lease, bills, salaries, loan repayments, and raw material supply will put pressure on revenues and profits and European businesses will be more strategic in their investment choices. Lastly, with staff shortages affecting many industries, businesses are forced to adjust and automate their operations to guarantee processes and operations will stay healthy and guarantee business continuity."

Expectations Meet Reality in the Energy Transition: Perspectives from IDC's Worldwide Energy Transition Survey, 2022
Aug-22 DOC # US49548622 Insight
This IDC Perspective looks at high-level survey findings around the state of the energy transition and the challenges organizations face. IDC's Worldwide Energy Transition Survey, 2022, highlights a widespread commitment and some progress from organizations regarding achieving net-zero emissions. However, ambitious goals confidently touted by organizations are being challenged by new global realities, which, in many cases, have slowed energy transition plans.
"There are very few organizations today that do not have energy transition goals," according to Leif Eriksen, research vice president, Future of Operations. "However, IDC's Worldwide Energy Transition Survey shows that these critical industries are still in the early stages of understanding the challenges of meeting those goals — often underestimating the operational challenges as well as the interdependencies with external economic and geopolitical realities."

The Battle for Components and Raw Materials in the Tech Space — Implications for European Industries
Aug-22 DOC # EUR149543322 Presentation
This IDC Market Presentation analyzes the implications of the lack of tech materials and components from an industry perspective, dwelling on the inner causes behind it, and the ways this event is impacting the IT market. It also compares the impact of this event across different industries and explains how public institutions and IT providers can become part of the overall solution. It concludes with some key highlights and recommendations for IT providers.
"IT cost price increases and supply chain disruption are two intertwined phenomena: IT cost price increases are related to the lack of components and materials needed to produce technology components, which is caused by (though not exclusively) recent supply chain disruptions over the past several years," said Luca Butiniello, research analyst, European Customer Insights and Analysis.
"The lack of tech materials will impact all industries in different ways, from the heavy-tech production industries that need more materials for their products and services, to the more innovative ones that need tech materials for their innovation road maps," said Carla La Croce, senior research analyst, European Customer Insights and Analysis.

This research includes both quantitative research in the form of market forecasts and qualitative research that assists technology buyers in making better decisions as well as technology vendors in better serving their customers.
"As an organizing principle for this substantial research effort, IDC has created a use case taxonomy for digital transformation for multiple industry segments. The taxonomy follows a hierarchical structure that begins with the digital mission of that industry, the strategic priorities that support that mission, the programs that will be initiated to satisfy the priorities, and the funded projects, or use cases, that will be implemented under those programs. The taxonomy not only forms the basis for our market forecasts but also provides the framework for digital journey maps that will assist our clients in understanding the full scope of enterprise efforts." — Kevin Prouty, group vice president, IDC Energy Insights and IDC Manufacturing Insights

A Cross-Cutting View of European Verticals: Benchmarking IT, GDP, and Employment, 2020 and 2022 outlook
Jun-22 DOC # EUR149158522 Insight
This IDC Market Perspective analyzes vertical market indicators in Europe to understand the structure, size, and economic importance of industry sectors on the continent. The study focuses on the economic contribution of verticals to national and regional GDP and includes employment numbers by vertical. The study examines IT spending as a percentage of GDP as well as IT spending per employee to determine the level of IT sophistication of each vertical in 21 European countries. The vertical markets covered include discrete manufacturing, process manufacturing, retail and wholesale, resource industries and construction, utilities, telecommunications, media, transportation, personal and professional services, financial services, and the public sector. The study also provides an outlook to the most influential macro-factors impacting the ICT market in 2022 such as the Russia-Ukraine War, inflation, and the role of the NextGenerationEU and the national recovery plans. It also reviews trends impacting IT investments by industry.
"For years, IT intensity (IT/GDP) and productivity (GDP per employee) indicators have been growing steadily for all industries and countries in Europe, but the disruptions caused by COVID-19 to European industries draw a heterogeneous picture in 2020. Considering the headwinds currently shaping the economy landscape in 2022, vendors must build vertical strategies to help organizations improve their resiliency and seize opportunities arising from digital-first strategies," said Neli Vacheva, research manager, IDC Customer Insights and Analysis.
"Among the main concerns for 2022 is the Russia-Ukraine War, which brought additional inflationary pressure on markets. Despite IT spending seeming to be resilient, many economic indicators will be affected by increasing prices, as will companies' technology investment priorities," said Carla La Croce, senior research analyst, IDC Customer Insights and Analysis. "The economic outlook will be monitored by IDC very closely, with constant updates."
