# Tech Adoption

**Overview**\
Tech Adoption tracks how hosting providers and website technologies are deployed across the live internet. In TickerTrends, this dataset reflects real world technology usage by measuring which infrastructure solutions, analytics tools, and platform technologies are actively present on websites.

**Historical Length**\
Varies by technology and detection coverage. Most widely adopted technologies provide multi-year historical depth.

**Granularity**\
Weekly data is the default. Certain shorter time ranges may support higher resolution depending on sampling stability and technology detection frequency.

**Update Frequency**\
Data is updated weekly. Users should expect a short lag between observable changes in live website deployments and TickerTrends availability.

**Methodology**\
Tech Adoption measures technology usage by scanning large sets of live internet domains to identify which technologies are deployed. The dataset captures observable deployment behavior rather than company disclosures, contractual relationships, or financial metrics. Values represent relative adoption patterns and directional changes across time.

**Use Cases**

* Identify infrastructure adoption trends across hosting and delivery providers.
* Monitor diffusion of analytics, tracking, and advertising technologies.
* Detect shifts in vendor footprint that may precede reported performance changes.
* Compare technology penetration across competing platforms or solutions.
* Support technographic research and ecosystem analysis.
