Data sovereignty now key factor in shaping IT decision making
Channel Life – Australia – Catherine Knowles
New survey results from International Data Corporation (IDC) show that data sovereignty and compliance are now an important factor in shaping IT selection and design decisions.

Almost half the respondents (48%) to IDCs Cloud Pulse 2Q22 survey say that data sovereignty and industry compliance have factored highly in discussions about their future IT architectures. And just 4% of respondents believe their IT organisations will not be impacted by data sovereignty and compliance considerations.

Among organisations that expect their IT budgets to increase in the coming year, the vast majority believe that data sovereignty and industry compliance considerations will strongly influence service provider selection decisions and decisions about their primary data centre environments.
