Red Hat Global Customer Tech Outlook 2017: Customers focus on digital transformation, cloud, and DevOps

As 2016 comes to a close and we look to the new year, we were keen to hear from Red Hat customers about their plans for 2017, including their top initiatives, cloud deployment strategies, and plans for innovative technologies. To gather these insights, we surveyed 268 Red Hat customers from six industries and 13 countries. Last year's survey revealed some areas of increasing strategic focus (private cloud, DevOps, big data, mobile and IoT initiatives), and reinforced the unsurprising need for IT to do more with less. The Red Hat Global Customer Tech Outlook 2017 built on these results, and highlighted respondents' mindshift towards responding to–or creating their own disruption–by not only using digital capabilities to create new business models, services, or products, but also embracing the culture and process changes often required to successfully do so. View the full blog post and accompanying infographic to see the results.

KeyBank Goes Cloud-Native, Builds a DevOps Practice and Chooses Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform

KeyBank, one of the United States' largest bank-based financial services companies, found that application delivery resulted in complexity growth over time. KeyBank's DevOps team began considering a container-based application platform, seeking to decrease complexity by isolating applications from the underlying infrastructure and helping development teams get to work with minimal configuration and management time. In seven months, KeyBank completed product evaluation, selection, and migration of multiple applications to Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform, and built its container-centric environments for development, testing, staging and production. KeyBank can now look forward to application release cycles with little to no downtime. Additionally, analysis shows that 60 percent of defects are now resolved within a day. KeyBank now plans to spread its DevOps teams into other projects in order to help scale the practice across the organization.
