The Digitalisation World Video magazine contains the latest Zoom interviews with experts in the industry.
The finding is based on exclusive data analysis of application deployments in the cloud by Sumo Logic customers in Europe, compared to America and Australia. Alongside this insight into how companies are tracking security and compliance, Sumo Logic also found the following data:
· There has been significant growth in the use of containers and serverless computing:
o Docker adoption within AWS is higher in Europe than US or Sydney – almost 27 percent of companies in Europe are running Docker, compared to 24 percent in US and only 18 percent in Australia. AWS Lambda is further ahead in Australia, with 26 percent of companies deploying on this.
o In total, AWS Lambda adoption has almost doubled from 12 percent of customers in 2016 to 24 percent in 2017.
o Kubernetes is more popular in Europe than elsewhere – 9 percent of companies are running Kubernetes on AWS in Europe, compared to 5 percent in Sydney and 8 percent in the US.
· Companies are now increasingly using NoSQL databases in production environments over relational technologies:
o Around 72 percent of companies are running NoSQL in production, compared to 62.6 percent on RDBMS.
o Redis, Mongo, Cassandra and Dynamo are the most popular NoSQL databases.
o MySQL and PostgreSQL are most popular relational databases deployed. Only 3.6 percent of companies are running Oracle databases on AWS, while Microsoft SQL on AWS is used by 2.4 percent of companies in total.
Mukesh Sharma, Vice President EMEA at Sumo Logic, commented, “Companies are keen to move over to cloud services and deploy their applications using new infrastructures like containers. We see more software teams moving over to Lambda and Docker to control their container deployments, but they also need more management insight into how those infrastructures are performing over time. Using machine data analytics can help bridge those gaps for IT and developer teams and provide the continuous intelligence needed to measure the success of digital transformation initiatives as well.”
He added, “At the same time, security for these new deployments has to be considered. More companies should make use of security and compliance support that is present in AWS and Azure – combining this with application-level insight can help developer and security teams collaborate on keeping their critical applications secure over time.”
“We often hear from customers that a purely SaaS cloud-native solution enables them to focus on outcomes - and not the mundane tasks of setting up servers and infrastructure; it’s simple to set-up, easy to consume, and has the capability to scale and burst on demand with no additional effort,”concluded Sharma.
