A recent report by IDC highlights a significant surge in cloud adoption in the Asia-Pacific region, excluding Japan. Industries such as banking, financial services and insurance (BFSI), healthcare, manufacturing, and retail are increasingly investing in hybrid and industry-specific cloud solutions to address evolving regulatory, operational, and technological challenges.
The comprehensive study, titled "Cloud Adoption Trends in Asia/Pacific (Excluding Japan) – Industry View," reveals that businesses are gravitating towards hybrid and private cloud strategies to better manage data sovereignty, improve cybersecurity measures, and implement more predictable cost models.
The report emphasizes the growing popularity of industry-specific cloud platforms that offer pre-integrated, compliance-ready capabilities tailored to specific sectors. These "industry clouds" provide faster returns on investment and better alignment with regulatory standards.
In the healthcare sector, cloud platforms equipped with compliance tools and features for secure data exchange and AI-assisted diagnostics are being adopted to enhance patient outcomes while adhering to stringent privacy regulations. Similarly, BFSI institutions are leveraging financial services clouds for real-time risk analytics, fraud detection, and localized reporting to ensure compliance with regulatory mandates.
Manufacturers are transitioning to industrial clouds that incorporate IoT, digital twins, and supply chain analytics, leading to improved operational efficiency and predictive maintenance. Retailers are utilizing cloud technologies to integrate customer data, thereby enabling AI-driven personalization and managing inventory across multiple channels.
Shouvik Nag, a senior research analyst at IDC Asia Pacific, noted, “Companies across the region are increasingly prioritizing cloud investments not just for infrastructure, but as a strategic driver of transformation, resilience, and growth.” The research indicates that cloud adoption in Asia-Pacific is shifting from a question of "if" to "how quickly and at what scale.
