The announcements reflect a broader market shift in which PaaS selection is increasingly shaped by a platform's ability to address security, governance, and production readiness for agentic workloads, not development speed alone.</P> IDC Link Fri, 12 Jun 2026 04:00:00 GMT Adam Reeves, Matthew Flug https://my.idc.com/getdoc.jsp?containerId=lcUS54629626&utm_medium=rss_feed&utm_source=alert&utm_campaign=rss_syndication <P>Feedzai used Fusion 2026 to make two arguments that matter for risk and compliance technology buyers. First, that fraud, financial crime, and cybersecurity must be treated as a single threat discipline. Second, that institution-level intelligence is no longer sufficient to defend against fraud networks that operate globally and across institutions. The headline product launch, the Feedzai IQ Score, operationalizes the second argument directly. IDC views Fusion 2026 as a substantive event for risk and compliance buyers, with a meaningful signal beneath the vendor marketing.</P> IDC Link Thu, 11 Jun 2026 04:00:00 GMT Sam Abadir https://my.idc.com/getdoc.jsp?containerId=US53994126&utm_medium=rss_feed&utm_source=alert&utm_campaign=rss_syndication <P>This IDC Market Glance illustrates how to achieve agentic AI deployments and outcomes at scale. Governments need to combine solutions and expertise provided by multiple vendors, such as global platform vendors (e.g., AWS, Microsoft, Google, Palantir, Salesforce, and ServiceNow), AI model providers (e.g., OpenAI, Anthropic, and Meta), government specialty solution vendors (e.g., LexisNexis and Fast Enterprise), systems integrators (e.g., Booz Allen, Leidos, Accenture, SAIC, GDIT, and IBM), and agentic AI orchestration and governance specialists (e.g., Langchain and Credo AI).</P> Market Presentation Thu, 11 Jun 2026 04:00:00 GMT Massimiliano Claps https://my.idc.com/getdoc.jsp?containerId=US54591326&utm_medium=rss_feed&utm_source=alert&utm_campaign=rss_syndication <P>This IDC Survey Spotlight summarizes findings from IDC's April 2026 <I>Agentic AI Functional Use Case Survey</I> of marketing, sales, and customer service decision-makers. The study examines what these buyers expect from technology vendors as they move agentic AI into production, and how investment authority is distributed across business leaders, IT, and emerging AI centers of excellence (COEs).</P><P>This study highlights three tensions: shared business–IT ownership versus traditional line-of-business control, enthusiasm for agentic AI ideas versus uncertainty about which use cases to fund first, and strong interest in AI agents versus concerns about data, context, and content readiness. The slides explore how these dynamics should shape vendor priorities in go-to-market, services, and product road maps.</P> IDC Survey Spotlight Thu, 11 Jun 2026 04:00:00 GMT Tapan Patel https://my.idc.com/getdoc.jsp?containerId=US53423826&utm_medium=rss_feed&utm_source=alert&utm_campaign=rss_syndication <P>This IDC Survey examines a portion of IDC’s 2026 <I>Energy & Utilities Industry-Specific Tech and Innovation Survey</I>, a landmark study covering utilities worldwide.

It is intended as a companion document for clients and analysts using IDC’s services contracts database. The taxonomy establishes consistent classification standards for contract-level analysis, enabling users to filter, compare, and analyze deal activity across service types, geographies, and buyer industries.</P><P>“IDC’s services contracts database taxonomy establishes the definitional boundaries that determine what counts as a services contract, how it is classified, and how its value is measured. For any organization using services contracts database data to inform vendor strategy, competitive positioning, or market sizing, the taxonomy is the analytical foundation on which every insight in the database depends on,” said Stacey Soohoo, research director, IDC’s Data and Analytics.</P><P>“IDC’s services contracts database taxonomy provides a standardized framework that ensures every contract we track is consistent and comparable across all geographies and service categories. It gives clients methodological transparency to confidently analyze deal trends, benchmark vendor performance, and identify services opportunities in an increasingly complex market,” said Supriya Kamath, senior research manager, IDC’s Global Services and Market Trends.</P> Taxonomy Thu, 11 Jun 2026 04:00:00 GMT Supriya Kamath, Stacey Soohoo https://my.idc.com/getdoc.jsp?containerId=JPJ53500326&utm_medium=rss_feed&utm_source=alert&utm_campaign=rss_syndication <P>本IDC Market Analysis Perspective（MAP）は、国内DevOpsソフトウェア市場に関して、IDCが2026年5月までに行った分析のサマリーを提供している。本市場に影響を与えるトレンド、競合分析、ユーザー動向、本市場の将来展望、ITサプライヤーへの提言などで構成される。</P> Market Analysis Perspective Thu, 11 Jun 2026 04:00:00 GMT Shinichi Kimura https://my.idc.com/getdoc.jsp?containerId=lcUS54629426&utm_medium=rss_feed&utm_source=alert&utm_campaign=rss_syndication IDC Link Thu, 11 Jun 2026 04:00:00 GMT Roger Beharry Lall, Laurie Buczek, Douglas Hayward, Wayne Kurtzman, Tapan Patel https://my.idc.com/getdoc.jsp?containerId=lcUS54630126&utm_medium=rss_feed&utm_source=alert&utm_campaign=rss_syndication <P>The window between vulnerability disclosure and active exploitation has collapsed, and Cisco built its entire Cisco Live 2026 security narrative around that fact. The company's answer arrives on two fronts: Live Protect, an eBPF-based runtime shield that blocks specific exploit paths without a reboot or a full patch, and Cisco Cloud Control, a unified operations platform that enables humans and AI agents to manage infrastructure, with governance, visibility, and oversight. Splunk's Agentic SOC, a three-level Quantum Resilience Framework, and a builder-security strategy anchored on AI Defense round out the set. Read against the 2025 vision keynote, this year reads as a delivery checkpoint, with Cisco converting conceptual previews into shipping capabilities. The open question for buyers is speed: how fast Cisco Talos can produce and validate a shield once a vulnerability surfaces, and whether coverage reaches the full portfolio on a timeline that matches the threat it describes.</P> IDC Link Thu, 11 Jun 2026 04:00:00 GMT Frank Dickson, Christopher Rodriguez, Grace Trinidad https://my.idc.com/getdoc.jsp?containerId=US53428126&utm_medium=rss_feed&utm_source=alert&utm_campaign=rss_syndication <P>This IDC Survey deck examines a portion of IDC’s 2026 <I>Energy </I><I>and</I><I> Utilities Industry-Specific Tech and Innovation Survey</I><I>,</I> a landmark study covering utilities around the world.
