Optimizing Public Cloud Providers for AI with Managed Cloud Services and Need for a New Business Model

David Tapper — Wed, 13 May 2026 04:00:00 GMT

This IDC Market Perspective highlights the need for managed SPs to invest in critical capabilities that can help optimize customer deployment of AI across public cloud providers, and increasingly agentic AI platform providers, when used with managed cloud services while also needing to adapt their business models with the increased use of agentic AI with these services.

"Supporting enterprise and organizational use of AI involving public cloud providers with managed cloud services requires managed SPs to make significant investments and adaptations in their business models, particularly with the increased use of agentic AI and agentic AI platforms," says David Tapper, program VP, Outsourcing and Managed Cloud Services at IDC. "Critical investments include determining optimal use of AI across the life cycle of services, adapting FinOps to support agentic AI, finding optimal market position, adapting SLAs and SLOs to be more BPO-like for agentic AI, differentiating managed cloud services with IP and proprietary platforms, emphasizing autonomous delivery and orchestration, and delivering value-add capabilities."

IBM Think 2026: An AI Operating Model Takes Shape Across Agents, Security, and the Platform

Jim Mercer — Tue, 12 May 2026 04:00:00 GMT

IBM's Think 2026 conference, held on May 5 in Boston, delivered a cohesive set of announcements to support AI adoption across the enterprise. The company organized its announcements around an AI Operating Model, built on four interdependent pillars: agents, data, automation, and hybrid. The announcements from the event were intended to address the gap IBM has identified between AI investment and AI ROI, a challenge that IDC research confirms is pervasive across enterprise organizations. The announcements from IBM Think promoted a shift from an AI experimentation mentality to leveraging AI to rethink business processes, making it a competitive differentiator rather than treating it as just a technology.

IDC Survey: Agentic AI Use Case Adoption — The Functional Leader's View, 2026

Giulia Carosella — Tue, 12 May 2026 04:00:00 GMT

The objective of this survey is to provide an in‑depth examination of agentic AI adoption among early‑adopter enterprises, including use case plans, expected business outcomes, sourcing strategies, and associated buying behaviors.

This study is based on an in-depth survey of 1,967 respondents with responsibility and knowledge of agentic AI solutions within 1 of 13 functional areas within enterprises that are at least piloting or using agentic AI solutions.

Early adopters are rapidly scaling agentic AI across enterprise functions, driven by multisourcing strategies and a shift from isolated task automation to integrated, cross-functional workflows. As agent sprawl and operational complexity increase, success hinges more on orchestration and governance. At the same time, investment decisions are becoming more business led and value driven, raising expectations for vendors to act as strategic partners supporting end-to-end, AI-driven business transformation rather than delivering standalone technical implementation.

AX and AI Service Providers in Korea

Daeil Chun, Myeong Han Kim, Min Kim — Mon, 11 May 2026 04:00:00 GMT

This presentation analyzes the evolution of AI transformation (AX) and the strategic role of AI SPs in Korea. It highlights the need for organizations to pursue advanced AI partnerships to internalize high-level AI capabilities and respond to rapidly changing technologies. The study finds that enterprisewide AI expansion and complex automation hinge on four critical capabilities: the ability to build scalable AI factories, deep industry expertise that enables practical agentic AI deployment, seamless support for heterogeneous infrastructure environments, and the capacity to digitally orchestrate a company's IT assets on an AI-native foundation.

The study profiles leading vendors (Samsung SDS, LG CNS, SK AX, Megazone) and provides a comparative assessment to help enterprises identify the right partner for their AX journey. As organizations navigate complex partner-selection decisions, the study highlights what matters most from a buyer's perspective.
