Ecosystem partners integrate Google’s AI
expertise in hybrid, multi-cloud systems across emerging and
mature markets, ISG Provider Lens™ report says
Enterprises in Asia Pacific are beginning to adopt services from
Google Cloud and its partner ecosystem to support a growing number
of digital transformation initiatives, according to a new research
report published today by Information Services Group (ISG) (Nasdaq:
III), a leading global technology research and advisory firm.
The 2024 ISG Provider Lens™ Google Cloud Partner Ecosystem
report for Asia Pacific finds that companies in the region (which
for this report covers Australia, New Zealand, Southeast Asia and
India) are quickly embracing digitalization through cloud adoption
and data modernization. Google Cloud has become a leading force in
these trends, especially in the retail, finance and healthcare
industries, often due to its strong partner ecosystem and advanced
AI tools.
“Enterprises in Asia Pacific are becoming more competitive and
resilient by migrating applications and data to the cloud,” said
Michael Gale, partner and regional leader, ISG Asia Pacific.
“Google Cloud services have significantly enhanced cloud data
management at these companies.”
Cloud adoption is at different stages across this diverse
region, with mature markets such as Australia, Singapore and Japan
rolling out AI and advanced analytics while companies in emerging
markets begin digital transformations and seek scalable IT
solutions, the report says. But hybrid and multi-cloud strategies
and edge computing are gaining traction as overall trends. Google
is meeting these demands with a multifaceted approach and plans to
establish new cloud regions in New Zealand, Malaysia and
Thailand.
As governments in Asia Pacific tighten data sovereignty and
compliance rules, enterprises seek cloud services specific to the
region, the report says. Providers are meeting their needs with
security architectures, encryption standards and compliance
frameworks that align with local standards, building on Google
Cloud’s regional data centers.
Generative AI (GenAI) is going from theory to reality in Asia
Pacific, changing how some industries operate, ISG says. Businesses
are exploring uses in content creation, design automation and
personalized customer experience. The democratization of AI
development, enabled in part by Google Cloud tools such as GenAI
Studio, lets companies take advantage of AI even if they have
limited expertise. Applications include better fraud detection by
financial institutions, more efficient networks in
telecommunications and inventory and price optimization in
retail.
The high concentration of AI and ML startups in the region,
especially in India, benefits enterprises that need to modernize
their data management, the report says.
“Startups are working closely with Google Cloud and enterprise
customers to solve data-specific challenges,” said Jan Erik Aase,
partner and global leader, ISG Provider Lens Research. “Asia
Pacific is a good place to be for AI and ML innovation.”
The report also examines other Google Cloud trends in Asia
Pacific, including the growing use of Google Cloud tools to easily
generate cross-cloud insights and the influence of Google’s
distinct approach to gain control over AI-generated content.

enterprises, including the complexity of cloud migration and the

issues, see the ISG Provider Lens™ Focal Points briefing here.
