Evolve and modernise applications for the digital enterprise
About this event
The pandemic offered organisations an additional impetus to push forward their digital transformation: an opportunity to innovate and lead during the market recovery. As Hong Kong comes out of the shadow of the pandemic, CIOs are presented with an opportunity to lead their organisation’s recovery and transformation amid uncertainty and an uncertain pace of change.
Stefan Van Der Zijden, VP analyst for Gartner cautions that the inertia of existing (legacy) applications can introduce impediments and delays. “CIOs require an application modernisation approach that provides agility and velocity where needed,” he continued.
At the Red Hat Executive Exchange Hong Kong 2022, recognised leaders in Hong Kong will share with you their learnings and experiences as they lead their companies through modernisation and transformation. We will deep dive into issues successful CIOs, and technology leaders will face in the coming years, including:
- Application modernisation’s evolving role in the context of digital transformation
- How to focus resources on application modernisation to deliver superior business value
- Considerations when architecting your application modernisation roadmap, including where to start, or how to restart a stalled process
- Best practices in API, automation, cloud services, DevOps, microservices and optimisation in support of application modernisation
We will also reveal the findings of an ongoing survey to you, to help you identify common issues and challenges and how leaders in Hong Kong and other parts of Asia are facing these head-on.
