Today's IT world is changing extremely rapidly in terms of technologies used, hardware and software lifecycle management, trends and hypes. All companies within the industry strive to keep pace with these changes – ensure their software is using up to date technologies and finding the best talent experienced with modern technologies. You need to adapt pretty fast so that you can survive. When a company creates a new software product and develops a new solution, everything changes in a short time. There are new programming languages, new frameworks and new technologies coming to the market. One of the challenges that organizations face is the fast technology shifts, new skills needed, new experienced staff, etc. In the upcoming VirtualMetric webinar, we will discuss how to survive in the ever-changing IT world. Learn how to: • Frameworks, programming languages, trends, infrastructure, platforms, serverless etc. • Does the technology help us fix existing shortcomings or issues in a maintainable way • Reality check: as IT is fashion-driven, should you follow each trend? • What is the expected life span within which we have to achieve a decent ROI so we can move on without losses but with profits to invest when offering IT services. • Should you go the innovations path, or follow industry standards? Why it is not always good to be innovative. • Don't let technology choices, frameworks, and tooling be chosen by random consultant or vendor you replace in short-term • Natural growth vs. acquisitions. More tech, more challenges. Is it worth it?
