A survey conducted by Vanson Bourne, commissioned by Micro Focus, discovered five key digital transformation trends where IT organizations are looking to focus their resources.
These areas of focus include:
■ Delivering value faster
■ Leveraging cloud as a modernization tactic
■ Delivering operational and cost efficiencies
■ Evolving to a cyber-resilient mindset
■ Corralling key data
Some key stats from the survey include:
■ 80% plan to modernize their core applications by moving at least 41% of workloads to the cloud in the next two years.
■ 98% estimate that their organization may unintentionally overspend annually on public cloud infrastructure due to inefficiencies.
■ 57% do not have recent audits of their private and sensitive data.
■ 73% say their organizations have so much data that it is difficult for them to get the insights they need.
■ Less than 50% of the respondents have fully adopted a value stream management (VSM) approach for their software delivery lifecycle.
Methodology: The survey encompassed a wide range of industry sectors, with 750 respondents in seven countries. The organizations represented include mid-sized and enterprise-level organizations.
