How European Hosting Operators Are Losing the Stack

The Great Rebundling

For CEOs & Investors • Aug 2026 • by Nadya Frost

European hosting operators are losing the stack to Wix, Shopify, and AI tools that bundle it all. New data shows what's left to compete on.

Inside the report

• Traditional hosting is losing the stack. Follow the customer into site builders, commerce platforms, and AI-native development to see where infrastructure value is moving.

• The value is consolidating into bigger bundles. New value is not scattering out to specialists. It is concentrating in platforms that can leave the hosting provider out entirely.

• Most Wix migrations remain winnable. Ninety-six percent of migrations from Wix end up with another hosting operator rather than another site builder or AI tool.

• Twelve percent already sits outside traditional hosting. Framework-native, custom-code, and AI-built deployments increasingly host with hyperscalers.
