Narrative updated for the September 2026 edition.

Denmark stays 19th at 4.24 (June: 4.29). Developer density is strong (4.20, pillar 6.45, 8th), but every other pillar is in the bottom third: grassroots adoption 1.90 (25th, with desktop Linux at 3.52% and a 10.23% sovereign browser share), private-sector hosting 4.17 (21st) and public-sector hosting 4.44 (21st). Of the 478 measured .dk domains, 55% are hosted outside the EU and 66% route email through non-EU providers. Copenhagen's website is served by Microsoft with email on Amazon; the royal house's site is served by Cloudflare with DNS on Microsoft; the prime minister's office is domestic (Statens IT) except for DNS at F5.

Strengths

  • Developer ecosystem (6.45, 8th).

Weaknesses

  • Grassroots adoption (1.90, 25th).
  • Official websites. www.kk.dk and www.kongehuset.dk rate 0.33, www.stm.dk 0.67.
  • Private-sector hosting (4.17, 21st). Domestic hosting is led by team.blue Denmark and Hetzner; Cloudflare (24%), Amazon (12%) and Microsoft (8%) lead the non-EU hosts.

Outlook

Denmark has the developers and lacks the hosting. The three official sites need five provider changes to reach 10 on the public pillar.

Historical context

2020 baseline

In 2020, Denmark was a "leader," demonstrating a proactive and sophisticated strategic agenda for digital sovereignty supported by a mature and well-governed open source policy framework.

2024 progression

Denmark's progress continues to be driven by local authorities and associations like OS2. The Danish Agency for Digital Government has created key guidelines for the use of OSS, but the national push has been less forceful than in other leading countries.
