IDC DevOps 2021 - Nordic | IDC Financial Insights | 9 September 2021 | Digital Forum

DevOps delivers results across Europe, enabling organisations to significantly improve performance while delivering business value. Everyone has heard that software is taking over the world, so the next challenge for every organisation is how to operate more like a software company to deliver digital innovation rapidly. Why? Because more than half of the European economy will be driven by digital products and services in the next three years. As organisations evolve to support future enterprise needs, the role of DevOps also evolves and expands.

To excel, organisations must leverage process, technology, and cultural change. By 2021, 80% of European organisations will adopt DevOps, but only 10% will excel in terms of accelerated performance and delivery cycles. Cultural inertia is a core stumbling block. To enable DevOps to become business-as-usual, organisations must rethink how products/services are funded, governed, and compliant, but also consider tool complexity, culture, organisational goals, and sourcing models. There must be a balance between technology investments such as API management, open source repositories, security integration, and modern app architectures with investments in organisational change, training, and skills development.
