Industry Findings: Enterprise adoption of cloud compute in Oman is progressing as organizations modernize digital operations while aligning with national diversification and data governance priorities. Enterprises across energy services, logistics, BFSI, retail, and public administration are upgrading enterprise IT platforms and analytics systems to improve efficiency and service reliability. Regulatory clarity improved in May-2024 when Oman strengthened cloud and data management guidance for government and regulated workloads, emphasizing data security, continuity planning, and trusted infrastructure usage. This guidance has influenced private enterprises to adopt more structured governance for production workloads supporting regulated services. Hybrid deployment models have since gained broader acceptance, enabling organizations to balance public cloud scalability with controlled handling of sensitive data. Demand remains concentrated on general-purpose and memory-optimized virtual machines supporting enterprise IT and analytics workloads. Elastic compute supports development activities and variable demand scenarios. Through 2025, enterprises in Oman continue prioritizing predictable performance, cost visibility, and phased migration strategies that support steady digital advancement without operational disruption.
