Cloudtech, Thursday, January 15th, 2026
Shifting geopolitical, technological, and legislative pressures mean 2026 is forecast to be a key year for cloud strategy in the UK as repatriation gains mainstream traction. The trend is already accelerating, with a greater focus on data sovereignty due to growing concerns.
According to insight from Pulsant, a UK-based digital edge infrastructure provider, 2025 saw businesses reevaluate cloud adoption due to increased regulatory pressures and higher costs, with many organisations shifting their workloads to private cloud, colocation, or on-premise deployments, from public cloud.
