The Must-Attend Event For Applications Professionals
As an application leader, you must plan for the rapid emergence of cloud, further integrate SOA, and overhaul your application portfolio in order to support business growth and innovation in a more agile, collaborative way.
Where approaches such as cloud and SOA are adopted, their impact on application strategy shouldn't be underestimated. As organizations overhaul their applications, they must manage their application portfolio while simultaneously undertaking IT modernization, and transition to more-modern languages, architectures and runtime environments. This requires a significant rethink of how to best manage and govern application development and the entire lifecycle.
Over two days, the Gartner Application Architecture, Development & Integration Summit provides a forum to meet your peers, Gartner analysts and service providers to discuss your hottest topics including cloud computing, SOA, governance, modernization, agile and more.
Jeff Schulman, Gartner Managing VP, talks about future proofing your application strategy.
