Abstract
This IDC Survey summarizes selected results from IDC's Future of Digital Infrastructure Worldwide Sentiment Survey, conducted in May and June 2023. Data from this survey is published in multiple documents. This document provides insights as to the current state of digital infrastructure governance models and policies shaping strategic architectural, workload deployment, and operational decisions across hybrid and multicloud environments. For the majority of customers, digital infrastructure resources typically include an interconnected mix of datacenter, edge, and public cloud IT infrastructure assets and services. The 876 survey participants represent a global cross-section of industries and geographies. They are senior IT and line-of-business decision makers tasked with shaping strategic technology, architecture, operating model, and vendor choices for their organizations' compute, storage, and networking investments and management approaches. Data on other dimensions of the survey will be discussed in forthcoming documents.
"On a worldwide basis, C-level technology leaders most often lead digital infrastructure governance processes related to architecture, spending, operations, and strategic road maps. However, 43% of organizations worldwide indicate their governance processes include significant LOB and FinOps engagement," explains Mary Johnston Turner, research vice president, Future of Digital Infrastructure — Agenda at IDC. "A significant majority of organizations worldwide feel their digital infrastructure management skills, staff, processes, and tools are sufficiently or exceptionally prepared to support future business needs; however, only slightly more than a third believe their digital infrastructure spending is well aligned to business requirements. Tech debt continues to be a significant concern among those organizations that believe they are spending more on infrastructure than actual business needs dictate."
