The 2023 Technology Spending Intentions Survey from Enterprise Strategy Group indicates that organizations focused on rapidly developing and deploying cloud-native applications use DevOps and agile software development methodologies more frequently than others. This implies that being cloud-native is as much about embracing iterative methodologies as it is about the technology. The survey findings also suggest that an organization’s use of cloud-native applications and its level of adoption of agile methodologies can have a substantial impact on its digital transformation journey and maturity.
