Worldwide Managed Cloud Services Forecast, 2024–2028: An Extraction View of Technology Outsourcing Services Markets


This IDC study provides IDC's forecast and spending for the worldwide managed cloud services (MCS) market across eight major regions for the 2024–2028 forecast period. IDC views managed cloud services as an extraction view of IDC's technology outsourcing services markets involving application management (AM), hosted application management (HAM), hosting infrastructure services (HIS), IT outsourcing (ITO), and network and endpoint outsourcing services (NEOS). For details on the definitions of managed cloud services, see the Market Definition section as well as IDC's Worldwide Managed Cloud Services Taxonomy, 2024 (IDC #US50637124, February 2024). This study also includes advice to providers of IT services, an analysis of key market and industry trends by key managed cloud services markets and regions, key market drivers and inhibitors, and significant market developments."While managed SPs are in a strong position to support enterprises in managing across an ever-expanding portfolio of IT and cloud capabilities, these service providers are also facing a host of substitution effects that include the use of automation and a range of other types of service providers including public cloud providers and colocation providers," says David Tapper, program VP, Outsourcing and Managed Cloud Services at IDC. "Ensuring success in the managed cloud services market will require that managed SPs develop a road map for skills versus automation, refine the go-to-market (GTM) strategy, support security and compliance needs, optimize financial management, implement AI strategically, provide business-centric modernization, utilize critical partnerships for digital transformation (DX), leverage strengths in supporting multicloud operations, implement a robust governance structure, create a matrix management function to support the use of public cloud providers, and develop an end-to-end risk management function."

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
