Panel: Platform Adoption Strategies: Critical Roles When Investing in Platforms - Danielle Cook, appCD; Valentina Rodriguez Sosa, Red Hat; Simon Forster, CNCF Ambassador
Tuesday November 12, 2024 5:00pm - 5:30pm MST
Adopting a cloud-native platform is a significant step that goes beyond just financial investment. It includes investing in the right people, refining processes, and setting supportive policies. This panel, featuring panelists’ perspectives from startups, end-users, and vendors, will discuss the types of investment beyond budget that’s required. It will then focus on how to communicate this investment strategy to the C-suite to gain buy-in. It will showcase real-world examples on how platforms can help with faster product launches, cost savings, and increased customer satisfaction and discuss how to track and demonstrate key performance metrics that the C-suite cares about. Attendees will leave with a better understanding of what the C-suite cares about and how a cloud-native platform aligns with overall business goals and delivers lasting value.
