IDC MarketScape: Worldwide Life Sciences R&D RWD/RWE for Data Platforms, Technology Solutions, and Consulting Services 2026 Vendor Assessment

Nimita Limaye — Thu, 10 Sep 2026 04:00:00 GMT

This IDC study presents an IDC MarketScape assessment of the worldwide life sciences R&D RWE, RWD, platforms, technologies, and consulting services market. It evaluates the strategies and capabilities of key vendors in this space and represents a qualitative and quantitative assessment based on criteria that should be important to life science companies when considering the selection of an RWD/RWE technology solution provider. As data volumes explode, AI reshapes what is possible, and regulators lean further into RWE, this study captures an industry in the midst of a decisive shift from experimentation to enterprise-scale execution. This is the second time that an IDC MarketScape assessment on this topic in life sciences has been performed.

"Real-world data has quietly become the connective tissue of modern drug development. As data volumes explode, AI reshapes the art of the possible for evidence generation, and regulators lean further into RWE, the life sciences industry is undergoing a decisive shift from experimentation to enterprise-scale execution. Those who can exponentially accelerate the transformation of data into evidence that regulators trust, payers accept, and patients ultimately benefit from, will win," said Dr. Nimita Limaye, research VP, Life Sciences R&D Strategy and Technology, IDC.

AWS Summit, Washington, D.C., 2026: Analysis for Government CIOs, CTOs, Program Managers, and Agency Leadership

Massimiliano Claps, Alan Webber, Ruthbea Yesner — Tue, 08 Sep 2026 04:00:00 GMT

At its Washington, D.C., summit, AWS paired new spending commitments with concrete mechanics for moving classified and sensitive government workloads to the cloud, headlined by a $1 billion intelligence community migration credit program and first-time classified cloud access for defense contractors. A separate $1 billion investment in embedded engineering teams signals AWS is positioning itself to close the AI pilot-to-production gap. AI tooling and model choice continue to expand across classification levels, though authorization varies by region and should be verified before any agency commits to a road map. Sovereignty and post-quantum cryptography announcements matter mainly for non-U.S. governments and long-horizon planners.

“AWS’s Washington summit made it clear that the next phase of government cloud adoption will not be won on infrastructure alone,” said Alan Webber, program vice president for National Security, Defense, and Intelligence at IDC. “It will be won by whoever can put real money behind migration and put engineers in the room to get AI past the pilot stage.”

Market Forecast: South Africa Public Cloud Service Forecast, 2026-2030

George Ayad, Jebin George — Tue, 08 Sep 2026 04:00:00 GMT

This IDC Market Forecast presents IDC's five-year outlook for South Africa's public cloud services market, spanning infrastructure as a service (IaaS), platform as a service (PaaS), and software as a service (SaaS), and outlines the forecast's key drivers, inhibitors, and implications for technology suppliers.

"South Africa's public cloud services market is set for steady, sustained expansion over the forecast period, underpinned by committed hyperscaler capacity rather than aspiration. That makes the growth path more durable than in prior cycles, but the ceiling on growth is now set by grid access and skills rather than by demand," said George Ayad, senior research analyst, IDC's Cloud and Datacenters, Enterprise Infrastructure.

Market Forecast: Worldwide Unified Communications and Collaboration Forecast, 2026–2030

Graham Fruin, Denise Lund — Tue, 08 Sep 2026 04:00:00 GMT

"The UC&C market is in a mature phase where consolidation of solutions and platforms is expected. AI features are no longer simply an add-on but a core part of the solutions. Cloud-based UC&C is still expected to be the dominant solution in the market, but there is a growing core of hybrid/on-premises users that prefer to retain control and have concerns over public cloud security." — Senior Research Analyst, Graham Fruin, Unified Communications and Collaboration, IDC
