Hybrid Cloud & 5G Markets Now Available to Address Gaps in Data Utilisation Expertise

Global technology intelligence firm ABI Research has just launched its Hybrid Cloud & 5G Markets research service. This service will help providers attract and serve customers by offering vital research on enterprise use cases, connectivity, and digitisation requirements for hybrid cloud and 5G solutions.

This launch is in response to ABI’s latest research, which found that by 2030, the global manufacturing industry will generate 4.4 zettabytes (ZB) of data, surpassing this year’s collection by more than double. This vast data stream originates from diverse sources such as IoT sensors, CNC systems, ERP systems, automated identification readers, and MES.

Effective utilisation and seamless integration of this data are crucial for sustaining competitiveness, driving innovation, and harnessing AI-driven solutions within manufacturing.

Yet, a significant gap persists: many enterprises and digitalisation providers lack the requisite expertise to fully leverage data for optimising manufacturing processes, resulting in substantial revenue losses of hundreds of millions of dollars.

Hybrid Cloud & 5G Markets Research Service Aims to Address a Pressing Need in Effective Data Utilisation

This is where ABI’s Hybrid Cloud & 5G Markets research service comes in.

“The Hybrid Cloud & 5G Markets service will deliver comprehensive research into enterprise connectivity, data generation, and cloud adoption strategies to empower telco industry players, chipset manufacturers, cloud service providers, and data integration vendors to attract and service customers effectively throughout their digitisation journey,” explained Leo Gergs, Principal Analyst at ABI Research.

He added: “A vital part of this research service will be a detailed forecast of the amount and nature of data generated on enterprise sites across the globe. While a vast amount of data is generated in the wake of Industry 4.0, that data is currently stored in its silos and, therefore, not utilised properly. Suppliers must thoroughly understand the data they aim to integrate to create a demand for data integration solutions—known as ‘Data Fabrics’. This understanding fuels broader digitalisation efforts.”

The Hybrid Cloud & 5G Markets research service coverage areas include:

• Key data generators by enterprise vertical
• Data integration requirements for industrial deployments
• Enterprises’ hybrid cloud deployment strategies
• Main cloud/computing challenges & bottlenecks for enterprises
• 5G’s impact on global economic growth
• 5G’s impact on productivity by vertical
• Private cellular implementation strategies
• Private cellular use cases & existing deployments by vertical and region
• 5G network slicing use cases by vertical

“ABI Research’s new Hybrid Cloud & 5G Markets service bridges technology solution providers and end-market companies, driving innovation by offering insights into enterprise needs and fostering informed decision-making. Simultaneously, it empowers end-users by aligning strategies, guiding decisions, and optimising resource allocation to facilitate digital transformation,” Gergs concluded.
