Singapore firms optimistic about GenAI but face IT infrastructure gaps

Only 60% of Singaporean businesses have adopted application containerisation.

Singapore organizations are highly optimistic about Generative AI (GenAI) but a lack of containerization adoption threatens to slow progress.

According to the Nutanix Enterprise Cloud Index (ECI) report, only 60% of Singaporean businesses have adopted application containerisation. This is significantly lower than the 80% adoption rate across Asia-Pacific-Japan (APJ) and globally.

Singapore organisations recognise the benefits of cloud-native and containerised applications. These technologies are crucial for scalability, security, and efficiency as AI solutions become more widespread.

Singaporean organizations are eager to adopt GenAI. Nearly 90% expect to break even or see financial gains from their investments within one to three years, surpassing the 80% global average.

Despite strong enthusiasm, implementation remains a hurdle, with more than 70% of businesses in Singapore struggling with infrastructure and integration challenges.

About 80% report their current IT systems require substantial upgrades. Without these enhancements, supporting GenAI applications will be difficult.

Less than 50% of Singaporean decision-makers feel equipped for security and ransomware protection. In contrast, over 60% of APJ and global counterparts report better preparedness.

You're the reader we write for. You're also the person our partners want to reach.

If that sentence describes you — a founder, a C-suite, someone whose attention companies pay good money for — then you already understand why SBR works. We've spent twenty years earning the trust of readers exactly like you. Which is exactly what makes this an interesting place for your company to show up, too.

The ways it can show up are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The right fit depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If your company has something this audience should know about, we'd like to hear what you're working on.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
