Standard noun formation from the verb 'digitalize' (convert to digital form) using '-ation'.
Etymology
Digitalization comes from the Latin digitus 'finger' because people once counted on their fingers, and that idea gave the word digit meaning 'number' and the modern digital meaning 'using numbers or computers'. So digitalization is the process of turning information or activities into digital form to use with computers.
