The research conducted by Reply "Cloud Governance: Focus on FinOps" confirms that the growing investments in cloud computing are usually followed by an increase in the adoption of governance models. These allow the governance of architectural or security aspects of the cloud and the optimisation of costs with the emerging FinOps methodology.
FinOps, unlike the more traditional IT Operations Management market, is a fast-growing segment that responds to the need for companies to have a more sophisticated strategic analysis of cloud cost models. FinOps introduces processes, tools and best practices that allow organisations to optimise their spending and, at the same time, reap the maximum benefits.
According to projections made by Reply in collaboration with PAC (Teknowlogy Group), in the Big-6 Country Cluster (USA, China, UK, Germany, France, India), investments in IT and cloud operations will grow from 37 to 54 billion euros by 2026, driven by the FinOps segment that will triple in value. The traditional data centre management sector’s size will decrease by almost 60 per cent, while cloud services management will double.
The Rising-6 cluster (Italy, The Netherlands, Brazil, Belgium, Poland, Romania) will experience a similar trend: a decline of almost 30% in traditional IT Operations, and an increase in investments in Cloud Operations and FinOps solutions, which will grow by almost 2.5 and 4 times respectively by 2026, crossing thresholds of EUR 3 billion and EUR 1.5 billion.
In the UK, the total IT and cloud operations market is expected to be worth EUR 3.5 billion, with cloud operations (EUR 2.4 billion) accounting for a large share. FinOps solutions will grow to EUR 731 million in 2026.
In addition to cost optimisation, proper cloud governance allows both to increase IT security and to make a company's IT operations more sustainable, thus, adding an element of focus to the sustainability of daily operations.
"In an increasingly interconnected and cloud-first world, the adoption of cloud computing is not a stand-alone project but one that must be integrated into the company's DNA. Cost optimisation, sustainability, security and agility are just some of the benefits of cloud computing which make it almost a must-have choice for all companies aiming to be lean and sustainable. Choosing to follow the FinOps methodology is a first step in this direction because it involves optimising operations and consequently downsizing infrastructure" commented Filippo Rizzante, CTO at Reply.

Echodyne Opens New Manufacturing Facility to Meet Surging Global Demand for Advanced MESA® Radar9.7.2026 15:00:00 CEST | Press release
New Washington State facility provides capacity to manufacture more than 30,000 radars annually, strengthening the U.S. defense industrial base As governments around the world accelerate investment in counter-unmanned aircraft systems (C-UAS) and short-range air defense, Echodyne today announced the opening of a new advanced radar manufacturing facility in Washington State, significantly expanding its manufacturing capacity to meet rapidly growing demand from U.S. and allied customers. With millions of drones manufactured and used by both sides in the Russian War in Ukraine, the need for enhanced safety for defense, national security, and critical infrastructure assets grows with every successful strike and interception. The low cost and high utility of drones dramatically alters the need for safety and security sensors. And as the low altitude economy takes off, hundreds of thousands of drones will perform a range of life-saving and commercial missions, requiring a sensor infrastructu
Orca Security Report: 99.9% of Fixable AI Vulnerabilities Remain Unpatched as AI Moves Into Production9.7.2026 15:00:00 CEST | Press release
Analysis of more than 1,200 production cloud environments provides a first-hand view into how organizations are embedding AI into business-critical workflows, exposing new security risks that traditional controls weren't built to address. Orca Security, a leader in cloud and AI security, today released its 2026 State of AI Security Report, offering a first-hand view into how AI is being deployed across more than 1,200 production cloud environments. The findings show AI is no longer limited to isolated pilots or developer experiments. Organizations are embedding AI into production applications, cloud services, and autonomous workflows faster than security programs can adapt. More than half (56%) of organizations have already deployed AI agents into production, while 51% use AI to build custom applications. At the same time, Orca found that 81% of organizations run vulnerable AI packages, and 99.9% of fixable AI vulnerabilities remain unpatched, highlighting how quickly AI has become ope
