Cloud professional services providers are critical to helping businesses transition to a modern, cloud-centric model,” says Pushkaraksh Shanbhag, Associate Director, Cloud and IT Services Research, IDC Asia/Pacific. “The wide range of transformative services offered by cloud professional services vendors — including app migration, modernization, cloud-native development, enterprise platform integration, and specialized industry solutions — requires businesses to thoughtfully assess providers against their unique needs.
