The digital transformation of APAC industries in Asia Pacific is increasing cloud adoption and demand for professional and managed services related to AWS, according to a new research report published today by Information Services Group (ISG).
The 2024 ISG Provider Lens AWS Ecosystem Partners report for Asia Pacific finds that rapid economic growth has led to rising investments in efficient and scalable business solutions, often based on cloud services and technologies. AWS has expanded throughout the region, spawning an ecosystem of providers that understand local markets’ technological maturity and business and regulatory requirements.
“Asia Pacific is a model of rapid learning and innovation at scale,” said Michael Gale, partner and regional leader, ISG Asia Pacific. “Its massive talent pool continues to support large-scale adoption of cloud services and cloud-native technologies.”
ISG says demand for industry-specific AWS expertise in the region is rising and the cloud is also shaping enterprise strategies around SAP, which has a major presence in APAC – including in manufacturing, financial services and the public sector.
The growth of the region’s AWS ecosystem is taking place against a backdrop of increasing hybrid cloud and multi-cloud adoption. Cloud spending is also a rising concern, so clients are choosing AWS managed services providers with strong FinOps capabilities.
The report also examines other trends affecting the AWS ecosystem in Asia Pacific, including a growing emphasis on sustainable cloud operations and providers’ increasing use of profit-sharing models for outcome-based pricing.
