Abstract
What is business agility? It sounds great, I’ll take two! But how do you achieve it? There have been many breakthroughs in history that have greatly improved the ability of businesses to respond to changing business environments, customer demands, and competitive threats. Few match the impact cloud native computing and modern development paradigms are having on businesses of all sizes across all industries.

This session looks at what it means for a business to be agile and how the latest advances in cloud, containers, and kubernetes, aka cloud native computing, are impacting not just one organization within a business, but operations, developers, and the business stakeholders alike. Don’t be mistaken, there are challenges and obstacles on the journey. This conversation will help you understand them, and considerations to proactively address them as you proceed to cloud native computing.

This webinar is sponsored by SUSE and hosted by The Linux Foundation.
