The increasing adoption of cloud computing across enterprises is expected to drive the growth of the business software and services market in the coming years. Cloud computing across enterprises refers to the use of shared, scalable, and on-demand computing resources, such as storage, applications, and processing power, delivered over the internet to support business operations across multiple organizations. The increasing adoption of cloud computing across enterprises is driven by its ability to reduce information technology costs by eliminating the need for large upfront investments in physical infrastructure and lowering ongoing expenses related to maintenance, upgrades, and in-house information technology management. The increasing adoption of cloud computing across enterprises is accelerating demand for business software and services by enabling scalable software deployment, improving operational flexibility, reducing infrastructure costs, and supporting the integration of advanced digital solutions across business functions. For instance, in January 2026, according to Eurostat, a Luxembourg-based official European Union statistical office, 52.74% of EU enterprises used paid cloud computing services in 2025, primarily for e-mail, office software, and file storage, representing an increase compared with 2023.
