When I was making my first switch from a product engineering team to being field facing software engineer, one of my first projects was an integration project for a federal agency. The very first piece of enterprise software minus my productivity and development suite I was exposed to was BMC’s Control-M about 15 years ago. A lot of batch files to extract and transform data had to be run in order and on a daily basis; Control-M at the time was a job runner.

We are in the midst of a digital revolution that started with the PC, Internet, and mobile phone and has continued to accelerate. In this current wave, the cloud, Kubernetes, artificial intelligence (AI), and intelligent automation are combining to create the next major disruption, which we call smart cloud-native. Smart cloud-native is a powerful force that is transforming data centers, workforces, customer experiences, and the way enterprises do business.
The CNCF Annual Survey 2021 is in and makes for some very encouraging reading for the future of Kubernetes and its place in the tech landscape. The 2021 survey was the biggest yet, with some 3,829 developers, engineers, architects, and C-level execs in the cloud native space taking part. Here are some of our key takeaways…
