Methodology

The research referenced in this press release was conducted by international market research
consultancy Censuswide, among a sample of 609 IT Managers aged 18+ in Large Businesses (500+

least 100 respondents from each market. The data was collected between 15th-23rd of August 2024.

Censuswide abides by and employs members of the Market Research Society and follows the MRS

Cloud strategy: the use of cloud infrastructure to run applications, including private cloud, public cloud,
and the use of cloud-native technology such as containers to develop software.

IT platform: An operating system, infrastructure or application platform for developing and scaling
applications, including AI apps, consistently across datacentre, cloud and multiple public clouds

Enterprise open source software: open source software that is supported by a vendor, usually via a

subscription fee. For example, the vendor stabilises and quality-assures the software, certifies it works
with an ecosystem of hardware and software, secures it and provides technical support.
