Harnessing the Promise of Cloud: The Business Imperative of Modernization
Hosted by Wipro Limited
Along the ever-evolving cloud journey, modernizing your organization’s full technology stack is a key driver to fully participate in today’s digital economy. As most enterprises still run custom systems throughout their environments, modernization of cloud-native capabilities can increase agility, accelerate innovation and reduce unwanted technology debt.
In this interactive Town Hall, you’ll have a chance to discuss your cloud and modernization strategies, addressing:
- The ways in which business, technology and cost drivers help you understand when to embark on a modernization program
- Whether modernization should be “big bang” or incremental – and how DevSecOps processes fit in
- Ways to leverage the connection between modernization and the scalability of cloud environments
- Best practices to blend application management, security and governance into your modernization strategy
