IDC's Worldwide Digital Sovereignty Taxonomy, 2023: Cloud Sovereignty
May-23 DOC # EUR150601123 Study
This IDC Taxonomy provides a description of IDC's digital sovereignty market. It serves as the foundation for classifying and sizing the worldwide digital sovereignty market. For 2023, the taxonomy includes 26 individual functional markets grouped within a hierarchy of nine secondary markets, which in turn aggregate into three primary segments: data sovereignty, technical sovereignty, and operational sovereignty.
"Demand for digital sovereignty has been mainly led by organizations that need IT solutions that comply with industry regulations and data privacy laws," said Rahiel Nasir, lead analyst at IDC's Digital Sovereignty research program. "But we are now seeing demand expand beyond regulated sectors and across all industries. This is due in part to macroeconomic trends such as geopolitical uncertainties, the ongoing threat of the COVID-19 pandemic, and inflationary fears. But at the heart of it is increasing cloud usage: as more organizations embrace cloud technologies as part of their digital transformation journeys, issues of sovereignty, security and trust have moved higher up the technology agenda."

IDC PlanScape: Digital Sovereignty Decision Framework for IT Executives
May-23 DOC # EUR150615923 IDC DecisionScape
IDC predicts that "Sovereign assertions in sustainability, resiliency, and asset residency through 2025 will force G2000 CIOs to shift staff, budgets, and operating processes for more than 35% of IT and data assets."
Triggered by European Union policies and regulations (e.g., the European Union's European Strategy for Data, the Data Governance Act, the Chips Act, the Digital Decade program, and multilateral initiatives such as Gaia-X), digital sovereignty has become a key priority for policymakers across the globe.
Public and private sector IT executives started to educate themselves and their teams about digital sovereignty when the pandemic hit, which made it a tier 2 priority compared with recovery and resilience. But as geopolitical uncertainties increased political pressure and triggered regulatory actions that foster digital sovereignty, CIOs and CTOs started to embed digital sovereign requirements in requests for information (RFIs) and requests for proposal (RFPs). They now need to make strategic sourcing decisions to select the sovereign solutions that enable them to enhance security and resilience; reduce compliance, portability, and interoperability risks; and ensure trusted data sharing across jurisdictions and with partners.
This IDC PlanScape provides public and private sector IT executives with a framework to make strategic choices regarding the type of sovereign solutions they should select. This IDC PlanScape elaborates on the stakeholders involved, investments to be made, as well as benefits and risks of different types of sovereign solutions.
"IT executives who want to make strategic sourcing decisions that not only comply with digital sovereignty regulation, but also deliver the best business outcomes in terms of agility, resilience, and innovation must understand the regulatory landscape on digital sovereignty, identify the candidate workloads to migrate to sovereign solutions, and scan the market to be educated regarding the many sovereign solutions that global and local tech providers are bringing to market," said Massimiliano Claps, research director, IDC EMEA.

It identifies the stakeholders that must be involved, investments to be made, and the risks that different degrees of sovereignty imply, such as overzealous isolation from global technology companies that may hamper innovation.
"Ministers, secretaries, and commissioners in charge of national digital sovereignty strategies must consider interdependencies between all attributes of digital sovereignty from data to technical, from operational to assurance, and from supply chain to geopolitics, to ensure that their regulations are effective. They need to collaborate with the industry to understand the impact of digital sovereignty regulatory interventions on both IT demand and supply," said Massimiliano Claps, IDC EMEA research director.

The top 10 predictions for the IDC FutureScape: Worldwide National Government 2023 Predictions — Asia/Pacific (Excluding Japan) Implications illustrate how the next four years will be revolutionary for operations as governments adapt to the changing needs of citizens and find more efficient ways to serve them. A successful delivery of innovative government services requires an in-depth understanding of citizen needs and the ability to anticipate those needs. Technology is vital in government to facilitate better coordination and cooperation between various government agencies.
To ensure inclusivity and to reap the benefits of digitalization, countries with large populations that have low coverage of internet access should prioritize early investments in digital infrastructure, such as broadband technology. It is important that governments on all levels allocate financial resources to the promotion of digital inclusion to provide citizens with the opportunity to profit from the advantages of the internet and the services available online.
"With the use of advance digital technologies, governments would have the opportunities to explore new models and approaches in providing new or improved services, manage resources effectively, deliver relevant services that are required by the citizens, improve accountability, and as a result gain citizens' trust," says Jezamin Abdul Razak, head of Government Insight, IDC ASEAN.

Deep Dive: Artificial Intelligence for Payer Use Cases
Jan-23 DOC # US49995322 Insight
This IDC Perspective takes a deep dive into artificial intelligence for payer use cases. In the past decade, health insurance companies have been looking to artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) to identify at-risk individuals and reduce rising costs in the healthcare sphere.
It's important to note that a majority of the price consumers pay when enrolling in health insurance goes into risk prediction and risk management. By using AI to create a system that can create more accurate risk models and predict which individuals need specific types of care, health insurance providers can spend more money on their beneficiaries and less on those processes. Platforms that can take in, study, and learn from data; refine judgments; and generate intelligent insight can also greatly reduce the need for expensive human data analysts.
When AI is injected into ways of working across the payer workforce, employees can be liberated from more tactical and mundane work. They can be redirected to more strategic tasks, tapping into previously unavailable internal and external data for more insight-driven ways of working. This can translate into new products and services that improve service and member health while supporting new growth strategies for the business.
"The use of AI in health insurance is quickly driving improvements and changing the relationship between payers, providers, and members. It helps enhance and streamline the member/patient experience and make internal operations easier," says Jeff Rivkin, research director, Payer IT Strategies at IDC Health Insights. "While there is still plenty of room to enlarge scope of this technology, it is clear that AI has a foothold in payers."

Payers' Guide to the Future of Trust
Jan-23 DOC # US49995423 Insight
This IDC Perspective explains why trust is the most important currency in the digital era as well as a cornerstone of digital health. To build trust, payers should implement AI-powered digital experiences that improve listening capabilities, support first-time resolution of member issues, and improve the consistency and clarity of the information provided. If there is no member trust, then engagement, loyalty, and future growth hang in the balance.
"Member trust is not a 'soft' issue for payers. It is a must-have foundation that brings strategic value to the business in the digital economy. Trust is a key driver of member and provider retention and is the lifeblood of the payer business model," says Jeff Rivkin, research director for IDC Health Insights.

This IDC PeerScape explores how public transportation authorities and transportation operator executives are using MaaS to deliver on the promise of meeting customers to travel in a convenient way, when it suits them, and at a reasonable cost. At the same time, MaaS is enabling transport operators and planners to optimize usage of capital-intensive asset capacity, launch new revenue-generating services. and encourage a modal shift to public modes of transport among citizens.
In other words, enabled by data and technological innovation, MaaS can empower transport enterprises to transform data into insights, which should help them empower customers to make more informed and agile decisions about the cost, convenience, and environmental sustainability of their mobility choices.
To understand how Europe is progressing in its journey and to identify critical success factors, IDC analyzed several examples at the leading edge of adopting MaaS.
"Data is key to enabling use cases across the connected transport or MaaS experience from journey planning, to booking, navigating, and getting insurance. To implement MaaS successfully and build digital twins on top, transport operators will need to be able to scale usage, provisioning, and intermediation of data," said Rimal Likhari, research manager, IDC Government Insights.

Sovereign Clouds and the Digital Sovereignty Imperative: Europe's Quest for Digital Independence
Dec-22 DOC # EUR149098122 Insight
This IDC Market Perspective discusses digital sovereignty, which is becoming an important topic in Europe given legislation and judicial rulings that have come into force in recent years. While data sovereignty is now well established in Europe following the introduction of GDPR in 2018, IDC expects digital sovereignty to gain greater traction over the next few years and beyond, with sovereign clouds playing a key role. Data and cloud sovereignty are subsets of digital sovereignty, which expands the debate beyond data to entire architectures, processes, and operations.
"Digital sovereignty is being driven by states and organizations that want to control their digital destinies and their data, particularly in light of recent EU rulings and legislation," said Rahiel Nasir, associate research director, European Cloud. "There are benefits to be had here. Adopting digital sovereignty principles can help enterprise organizations enhance operational resilience, make them more trustworthy, and place them in a stronger position to meet current and upcoming regulations, not just in the EU but also globally, thus opening up new markets."
