Narrative updated for the September 2026 edition.
Portugal falls four places to 24th at 3.69 (June: 4.28, 20th), on a public-sector pillar that halved from 5.56 to 2.78. Since June, www.lisboa.pt moved its web hosting and DNS from Portuguese infrastructure to Cloudflare; with email on Microsoft, the site now rates 0.0. www.portugal.gov.pt is served by Amazon with email on Microsoft (0.33) and www.presidencia.pt by Akamai (0.50). Developer density is decent (3.31, 12th), grassroots adoption low (2.37, 23rd) despite desktop Linux rising from 2.71% to 3.57%, and private-sector hosting middling (5.30, 16th): 57% of the 460 measured .pt domains are hosted outside the EU.
Strengths
- Developer ecosystem (4.29, 12th).
- Domestic hosting led by the public research network (FCT) and NOS.
Weaknesses
- Public sector (2.78, 25th). No official site is fully domestic; Lisbon's has no EU component.
- Grassroots adoption (2.37, 23rd).
- Email. 65% of the measured
.ptdomains use non-EU email providers.
Outlook
One city website's migration cost Portugal four places. The three official sites are the whole story of its public pillar.
Historical context
2020 baseline
In 2020, Portugal was a "solid contender," with a balanced profile that featured a particularly strong and mature open source policy framework complemented by a dedicated government agency.
2024 progression
Portugal continues to advance its use of OSS. The "Common Model for Design and Development of Digital Services (Mosaico)" establishes the principle to "Make new code open source." The Administrative Modernization Agency (AMA) remains a key policymaker.
