The European managed services market was valued at USD 66.14 billion in 2018, and it is projected to be worth USD 148.74 billion by 2024, registering a CAGR of 14.1% during the period of 2019-2024.

Although Western Europe is the growth hub for managed hosting and colocation in Europe, Eastern Europe is witnessing growth with cloud and hosting technology trends. Moreover, server virtualization technology is also gaining traction, with managed hosting customers investing in managed virtualized servers, instead of dedicated physical servers in the traditional hosting model.

    --  Increasing shift to hybrid IT is driving the market. The IoT solutions,
        which connect hardware devices, embedded software, communication
        services, and managed services, offer smart communication environments,
        such as smart transportation, smart homes, and smart healthcare.
        According to a report by Tata Consultancy Services (published in 2019),
        which features a survey of about 3,764 IoT decision-makers in the
        enterprise organizations, the European companies are planning to invest
        about 0.4% of their revenues on IoT initiatives. This factor is expected
        to lead to a considerable transformation in business.
    --  Improved cost and operational efficiency is driving the market. The
        managed services offer several benefits that include the reduction of
        CapEx and OpEx. This factor enables users to make use of all emerging
        technologies. A survey conducted by Ericsson to understand the impact of
        midmarket managed services on SMEs indicates that about 68% of the SMBs
        in Europe agreed to have improved their bottom line with the help of
        managed services that include lowering IT costs, provision of
        performance predictability, user experience and cost and maintenance of
        the lean business environment.
    --  Integration and regulatory issues and reliability concerns is
        restraining the market to grow. According to a survey conducted by
        IoT-European Platforms Initiative (IoT-EPI), about half of the 575 IT
        and IoT decision-makers in the region indicated that they face the
        problem of lack of skills for the IoT-related tasks. About 38% of the
        IoT adopters cited complexity/technical challenges in using IoT as a
        barrier to further the adoption of IoT. The existing cloud and managed
        services' complexities and the lack of resources pose challenges to the
        market's growth.

        cyber warfare, have increased the awareness of cybersecurity threats,

        WannaCry) affected the United Kingdom the most. With the increased
        internet of things (IoT) devices, the vulnerability and exposure to
        diverse cyber attacks are growing. At the end of 2018, the United
