Nepal's cloud computing landscape in 2026 shows a significant trend towards cloud repatriation, with 45 organizations bringing workloads back on-premise or hybrid. This shift reflects concerns over data sovereignty, latency, and cost management, prompting many to reconsider their cloud strategies. Despite increasing cloud adoption, organizations are balancing cloud benefits with the need for local control and compliance.
Total cloud-related investments have reached USD 120 million, indicating growing confidence in digital infrastructure. Data centers now support 350 MW capacity, accommodating expanding hybrid solutions. The cloud adoption rate of 28% suggests room for growth, as Nepal continues to develop its digital economy and enhance local cloud capabilities to meet enterprise demands.
