How to choose the best application modernization journey: A roadmap to a cloud-native transformation
The e-book discusses the importance of application modernization and the benefits it offers in terms of availability, scalability, agility, and cost optimization. It emphasizes the need for organizations to adapt to high-frequency practices to remain competitive in the face of digital disruption. The three primary options for application modernization are containers, serverless computing, and cloud-native replatforming, each offering different advantages. Containers provide portability and scalability, serverless computing reduces operational complexity and allows for rapid deployment, while cloud-native replatforming leverages managed services to simplify management responsibilities. The choice of the modernization path depends on specific workloads, processes, and team capabilities. The e-book also highlights the importance of infrastructure-as-code, early testing, safety monitoring, and the ability to innovate quickly to meet customer needs.
