Cloud providers have been rapidly adding data center locations around the globe, making it easier for enterprises to meet statutory and regulatory data residency requirements. Recently, though, demand for sovereign cloud services has been on the rise, requiring data centers that are fully contained within the country…

Every enterprise wants and needs to build AI-powered Next-Generation Applications. For that, these enterprises need frameworks that make it easier for them to build these applications. Frameworks come from all kinds of vendors and need to do two key things: Be mastered quickly and deliver AI automation quickly. A…

Agents are how AI is delivered in the enterprise; there is a veritable competition among platform providers to be the agentic platform provider of choice. Most members of the shortlist are on V1. x of their offerings, with the expectation of rapid functional capability progression in 2026.

Quantum computing is an approach to computing that uses quantum-mechanical phenomena such as entanglement and superposition. The goal is to apply a probabilistic model to solve problems more quickly. Quantum computing is such a radical new way of computing that it needs software to be rewritten to take advantage of…

When CxOs choose platforms to build next-generation applications for their organizations, they can choose between packaged platform-as-a-service (PaaS) tool suites that provide separate, atomic offerings with separate versions, or PaaS suites that allow installation/product/service and offering bundles on a single…

Infrastructure as a service (IaaS) is a key enabler for next-generation applications that inherently have indeterminate computing resource needs. IaaS vendors—with their elastic offerings of compute, storage, and networking—offer the only generally viable deployment option for next-generation applications. IaaS…

As enterprises face uncertainty about business best practices due to Infinite Computing, they need to build software in-house. They create next-generation applications, typically on cloud-based platforms, where, for the first time in computing history, they don’t have direct access to the physical infrastructure…

The era of Infinite Computing has cast a spell over business best practices, creating uncertainty about what the best practices of the 21st century are. Architecturally unlimited compute and storage, coupled with cheap networking and the ubiquity of smartphones, create the realm for new strategies on how enterprises…

SAP is the market leader for business applications. In the current era of business best-practice uncertainty, enterprises need to be able to extend these applications, integrate them with other solutions, and sometimes even build separate applications that run on SAP’s platform and/or integrate with SAP products…

A low-code tool or platform allows application developers to create software solutions with minimal skill and effort. For the purposes of this list, a low-code tool is distinct from a low-code platform if it’s not a self-contained foundation upon which low-code applications run. Either type of low-code solution can be…
