Dec 02, 2024, Global – While industries are rushing to exploit the transformative potential of AI, legacy applications have suddenly become the greatest obstacles. A recent study by Forrester found that 89% of enterprises plan to maintain or accelerate investments toward modernizing applications in the upcoming year for the purposes of maximizing artificial intelligence adoption.
Microsoft Azure is at the forefront, opting for strategies that are focused on business outcomes. It offers rehosting apps to cloud VMs, rearchitecting monolithic systems into microservices, re-platforming for better operations, and rebuilding with cloud-native services. This helps optimize performance, costs, and security, which are the key business outcomes driving modern approaches to app modernization.
It is important to constantly upgrade capabilities to provide flexibility and competitive advantage. Microsoft cited Azure’s ability to support diverse workloads through Kubernetes, SQL Database, and Cosmos Database, among other things.
Another focus is targeted skilling. New resources on Azure learning have been added, including the “Modernize Apps for AI-readiness” and “Develop, Re-platform, and Improve AI Apps,” to enable teams to effectively build and modernize AI applications.
Modernize apps and upskill talent to foster innovation and competitiveness in today’s world driven by AI.
