Applications (short: app): few investments today are as essential to business success and digital transformation. The complete portfolio of existing and planned apps is what defines customer relationships, revenue models, employee experiences and business operations. But even after decades of innovation in developer tools, new models of infrastructure, cloud delivery models and more, most businesses struggle to match the needs for new services and differentiated capabilities at the pace required to compete.
Moreover, the future only looks more challenging. Expectations show exponential growth in app volume along with continued diversification in how applications are built, run and managed. All on top of the growing multi-cloud reality for IT is proving to be daunting to say the least. Most of the organizations we work with are challenged to keep pace with demands while extending existing teams and established skills to new domains. The growth in Kubernetes, microservices and cloud native architectures will only challenge global teams even more.
One of the lingering challenges is the continued fragmentation between developers and IT teams. Even those organizations that have bridged these teams to align on goals and objectives. They often lack the technology platforms to properly align and efficiently execute the priorities of each team. Developers need rapid access to the tools and resources to drive innovation. But this speed can’t come at the expense of security, reliability or management of IT systems the business depends on. For too long, solutions have solved one challenge or another without the holistic view of success for the entire organization.
