Asian Enterprises Snap Up Cloud Services as Economies Rise
Growing technological maturity boosts use of public cloud infrastructure, transformation consulting and managed services, ISG Provider Lens™ report says Demand for public cloud services is growing in Asia Pacific as more enterprises recognize the importance of investing in advanced technology, including AI, to compete in global markets, according to a new research report published today by Information Services Group (ISG) (Nasdaq: III), a leading global technology research and advisory firm. The 2024 ISG Provider Lens™ Multi Public Cloud Services report for Asia Pacific finds that rapid economic expansion in the region, which is at the epicenter of global growth, has enabled some companies to leapfrog international rivals in implementing cloud-native environments. Government incentives and a wave of legacy infrastructure modernization have also accelerated public cloud adoption. Strong ecosystems of local and global system integrators help to make cloud transformations possible. "Enterprise technology is quickly maturing in Asia Pacific," said Michael Gale, partner and regional leader, ISG Asia Pacific. "As companies gain more capabilities and look to expand their use of AI, they are stimulating both the cloud ecosystem and the regional economy." The expansion of cloud infrastructure in Asia Pacific is fostering the growth of provider ecosystems that help enterprises gain cloud maturity, the report says. One or more hyperscalers have been present in Australia, Japan and Singapore for more than a decade, and AWS entered Malaysia this year. Hyperscale infrastructure is expected to come online in Indonesia, Thailand and New Zealand by the end of 2025. GenAI adoption is becoming a major accelerant of public cloud services demand in the region, ISG says. Many companies, especially in China and India, are looking to capture AI's potential. They are turning to hyperscalers and service providers for the computing power, storage and tools required to develop and deploy AI applications. Scalable, on-demand access to these resources makes a strong public cloud infrastructure and ecosystem attractive to companies planning AI initiatives. Enterprises in Asia Pacific are turning to managed services providers for help in modernizing applications and implementing cloud-native technologies to facilitate large-scale Agile development, the report says. They seek providers with expertise in lift-and-shift cloud migration, container management and DevOps approaches to support CI/CD development pipelines. As companies in the region quickly adopt cloud services, they are also seeking stronger financial monitoring of cloud resources to control costs and comply with local regulations, ISG says. There is growing demand in Asia for FinOps services providers that use advanced AI to identify anomalies in cloud usage and spending and recommend steps to improve performance and cost efficiency. "Companies throughout Asia Pacific are undergoing significant transformation to realize the value of the cloud," said Jan Erik Aase, partner and global leader, ISG Provider Lens Research. "Service providers help them minimize risks and make a cost-effective transition." The report also examines other public cloud trends in Asia Pacific, including the rise of local hyperscalers as alternatives to U.S.-based giants and the increasing demand for SAP cloud migration services. For more insights into the public cloud challenges faced by enterprises in Asia Pacific, and ISG's advice for overcoming them, see the ISG Provider Lens™ Focal Points briefing here. The 2024 ISG Provider Lens™ Multi Public Cloud Services report for Asia Pacific evaluates the capabilities of 37 providers across five quadrants: Consulting and Transformation Services, Managed Services, FinOps Services and Cloud Optimization, Hyperscale Infrastructure and Platform Services and SAP HANA Infrastructure Services. The report names Accenture, Capgemini, HCLTech and Infosys as Leaders in three quadrants each. It names AWS, Deloitte, Fujitsu, Google, IBM, Microsoft, NTT DATA, PwC and TCS as Leaders in two quadrants each. DXC Technology, Kyndryl, Rackspace Technology, SAP and Wipro are named as Leaders in one quadrant each.

A new ISG report highlights the growing demand for public cloud services in Asia Pacific, driven by economic expansion, AI adoption, and the need for advanced technology to compete globally.
The Asia Pacific region is experiencing a surge in demand for public cloud services, driven by rapid economic growth and a growing recognition of the importance of advanced technology in global competition. According to a new report by Information Services Group (ISG), enterprises in the region are increasingly investing in cloud infrastructure and AI technologies to stay competitive in the global market 12.
The report highlights that the Asia Pacific region, currently at the epicenter of global growth, has enabled some companies to surpass international competitors in implementing cloud-native environments. This rapid economic expansion, coupled with government incentives and the need for legacy infrastructure modernization, has accelerated public cloud adoption across the region 12.
Michael Gale, partner and regional leader at ISG Asia Pacific, notes, "Enterprise technology is quickly maturing in Asia Pacific. As companies gain more capabilities and look to expand their use of AI, they are stimulating both the cloud ecosystem and the regional economy" 12.
The growth of cloud infrastructure in Asia Pacific is fostering the development of provider ecosystems that support enterprise cloud maturity. Major hyperscalers have been present in Australia, Japan, and Singapore for over a decade, with AWS recently entering the Malaysian market. The report predicts that hyperscale infrastructure will be available in Indonesia, Thailand, and New Zealand by the end of 2025 12.
Generative AI (GenAI) adoption is becoming a significant driver of public cloud services demand in the region. Many companies, particularly in China and India, are eager to harness AI's potential. They are turning to hyperscalers and service providers for the necessary computing power, storage, and tools to develop and deploy AI applications 12.
Enterprises in Asia Pacific are increasingly relying on managed services providers to help modernize applications and implement cloud-native technologies. This trend supports large-scale Agile development, with companies seeking providers experienced in lift-and-shift cloud migration, container management, and DevOps approaches for CI/CD development pipelines 12.
As cloud adoption accelerates, companies in the region are also seeking stronger financial monitoring of cloud resources to control costs and comply with local regulations. There is a growing demand for FinOps services providers that use advanced AI to identify anomalies in cloud usage and spending, and recommend steps to improve performance and cost efficiency 12.
The ISG Provider Lens™ Multi Public Cloud Services report for Asia Pacific evaluates 37 providers across five quadrants. Notable leaders include Accenture, Capgemini, HCLTech, and Infosys, each leading in three quadrants. AWS, Deloitte, Fujitsu, Google, IBM, Microsoft, NTT DATA, PwC, and TCS are leaders in two quadrants each 12.
The report also identifies Rising Stars, including Hitachi Digital Services, LTIMindtree, and Rackspace Technology, each in one quadrant. In the area of customer experience, Persistent Systems is named the global ISG CX Star Performer for 2024 among multi public cloud services providers 12.
As Jan Erik Aase, partner and global leader at ISG Provider Lens Research, concludes, "Companies throughout Asia Pacific are undergoing significant transformation to realize the value of the cloud. Service providers help them minimize risks and make a cost-effective transition" 12.
