The late 1990s were a crazy time in the technology industry.

Meanwhile, in a garage in Tulsa, Oklahoma, brothers Donald and David Yonce launched a network monitoring software company and named it SolarWinds.

How to Build Unified Cross-Functional Teams in Today's Hybrid IT Landscape

Data continues to be a major driver of business operations, and as a result, it’s becoming more common to see cross-functional teams working within IT. In 2022, for example, data-related projects enforcing data hygiene, data integrity, or data security continue to lead most functional leaders’ investments.

Because of this, the pandemic notably accelerated a swift move to the cloud, with cloud-first organisations now outnumbering on-premises companies by a ratio of three-to-one. A whopping 81% of organisations said they had accelerated their cloud timelines and plans due to the pandemic.
