Exclusive Research from Sumo Logic Reveals Multi-Cloud on the Rise and Open Source Technologies like Kubernetes is Disrupting the Modern Application StackREDWOOD CITY, Calif., Sept. 11, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Sumo Logic, the leader in continuous intelligence, today released exclusive findings from their highly-anticipated “The Continuous Intelligence Report: The State of Modern Applications and DevSecOps in the Cloud” revealing significant year-over-year growth in enterprise usage trends around multi-cloud adoption, open source technologies such as Kubernetes, and Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud-native services adoption. The research also shows the increasing need for cloud-based security solutions such as cloud SIEM to help enterprises address today’s increasingly complex security landscape. These findings will be highlighted during Sumo Logic CEO Ramin Sayar’s keynote on Sept. 11 at Illuminate, the company’s annual user conference, which will be streamed here on September 11 at 11:30 am PT. The Intelligence Economy This report provides a unique perspective on trends based on the usage of application architectures, processes, tools and use cases by leading-edge enterprises. With more companies continuing to shift to the cloud to deliver high-performance, highly scalable and always-on digital services, personas responsible for modernizing and migrating their applications can leverage these data-driven insights to help guide their cloud journey. "Today's enterprise technology landscape is more dynamic and fast moving than ever, and understanding what is changing and how quickly requires at-scale visibility into what businesses are embracing," said Stephen O'Grady, Principal Analyst with RedMonk. "The conclusions contained in Sumo Logic's report, itself based on insights from thousands of customers, is broadly aligned with RedMonk's projections for the industry moving forward, and thus offers value to executives and practitioners tasked with setting technical direction." Based on anonymized data from more than 2,000 customers and 100,000 users leveraging Sumo Logic’s Continuous Intelligence Platform, this report takes that data to provide a unique analysis of mission-critical modern applications and cloud infrastructures running on AWS, Microsoft Azure and Googe Cloud Platform (GCP). “Multi-cloud and open source technologies, specifically Kubernetes, are hand-in-hand dramatically reshaping the future of the modern application stack,” said Kalyan Ramanathan, vice president of product marketing for Sumo Logic. “For companies, the increased adoption of services to enable and secure a multi-cloud strategy are adding more complexity and noise, which current legacy analytics solutions can’t handle. To address this complexity, companies will need a continuous intelligence strategy that consolidates all of their data into a single pane of glass to close the intelligence gap. Sumo Logic provides this strategy as a cloud-native, Continuous Intelligence Platform, delivered as a service.” Key findings from this year’s report include: Multi-cloud is growing faster than any other modern infrastructure category
Kubernetes is highly prevalent in multi-cloud environments
Open source has disrupted the modern application stack
Enterprises only use 15 out of 150+ available AWS cloud-native services
Serverless adoption has reached a tipping point
Significant adoption of next-gen and cloud-hosted security technologies continues
