IDC MarketScape: Worldwide Industrial DataOps Platforms 2026 Vendor Assessment: Cybus Positioned as a “Major Player”

Hamburg, May 21, 2026 – The Hamburg-based software company Cybus was positioned as a “Major Player” in the IDC MarketScape: Worldwide Industrial DataOps Platforms 2026 Vendor Assessment  (Doc #US53013025, March 2026).

The IDC MarketScape provides an in-depth analysis of vendors whose software and services support industrial data lifecycle management. With the first-ever publication of an IDC MarketScape for Worldwide Industrial DataOps Platforms, we believe IDC underscores the growing strategic importance of this category for the industry.

With the increasing use of AI, cloud platforms, and software-defined production architectures, the need for scalable, vendor-neutral data infrastructures is growing rapidly. Companies face a specific challenge: Industrial data must be available across locations, contextualized, and usable securely – before AI and analytics initiatives can even take effect.

“We believe the fact that IDC is evaluating Industrial DataOps as a standalone category for the first time shows where the market stands. Companies are increasingly realizing that the data foundation is what matters – not the application built on top of it. Cybus Connectware is built precisely for this purpose: a scalable, vendor-neutral foundation on which production IT can truly grow,” says Peter Sorowka, CEO of Cybus. “We believe the positioning in the IDC MarketScape confirms Cybus Connectware’s role as a data infrastructure for the software-defined factory.”
