Written by analyst Tiny Haynes and co-authored by analysts Gregor Petri, Gianluca Tramacere and Ross Winser, the annual MQ for Managed Hybrid Cloud Hosting, Europe report considers cloud providers who own data centres in Europe to “meet demands of data sovereignty” and provide “more agile computing”.
