What Exactly is Cloud-Native Development? | Research

Event Overview

Adopting cloud-native development capabilities is a strategic priority for many IT leaders. But cloud is not a place; it’s an operating model. So what exactly does “cloud native” mean? Join WWT technical solutions architects Steve Younger and Matt Hilliker as they talk about how treating “cloud native” as a journey for building and running applications from the ground up can maximize the advantages of your cloud deployment model. Steve and Matt also identify common patterns they’re seeing from client organizations as it relates to going cloud native and which industries stand to gain the most from incorporating a cloud-native mindset.
