Narrative updated for the September 2026 edition.

Italy stays 26th at 3.00 (June: 3.29). Developer density is the EU's lowest (1.54, pillar 0.0), grassroots adoption fourth-lowest (2.33) and private-sector hosting fell 0.85 to 4.10 (23rd): 59% of the 466 measured .it domains are hosted outside the EU (Amazon 22%, Cloudflare 16%, Akamai 6%) and 71% route email through non-EU providers. Public-sector hosting is middling (5.56): Rome's website is domestic (Fastweb) but mails through Microsoft; www.quirinale.it is served through Cloudflare; www.governo.it is served by Akamai with email on Microsoft.

Strengths

  • Domestic hosting led by GARR, Aruba and OVH (41% of the sample).
  • Official DNS domestic (Fastweb, the Quirinale's own network, Sogei).

Weaknesses

  • Developer density (1.54, 27th).
  • Private-sector hosting (4.10, 23rd), down 0.85 this quarter, the largest private-pillar fall in the EU.
  • Official websites. www.governo.it rates 0.33; the presidency and Rome 0.67.

Outlook

Italy's talent pillar is structural; its hosting pillars are choices. The government website alone costs more than two points on the public pillar.

Historical context

2020 baseline

In 2020, Italy was a "contender," whose strength lay in its world-class open source software policy framework, which compensated for its underdeveloped top-down strategic sovereignty agenda.

2024 progression

Italy maintains its strong, policy-driven commitment to OSS. The national policy framework, including the Guidelines on the Acquisition and Reuse of Software, continues to strongly favor open source. The Competence Centre for Reuse and Open Source (CCROS) was established in 2020 to support public administrations.
