Application Management

If data is considered the lifeblood of IT, applications have quickly emerged to set the pulse. And cloud applications, specifically, have positioned their stake in the forefront, quickly disrupting traditional IT applications and operations. It’s no longer “business as usual” when it comes to development – it’s survival of the fittest coupled with requirements of rapid, chameleon-like transformation. Change is the constant and businesses need to adapt with enough flexibility in order to maintain their relevance. Not easy.

That’s where Agilant comes in. Whether it is the management of current applications, development of new ones, migrating applications to the cloud, or quickly integrating them into your environment, team Agilant is well-equipped to help you modernize and transform.

Cloud-Native

Agilant offers comprehensive cloud native solutions across the stack from infrastructure to application to help enterprises build, run and manage modern applications with productivity, security and efficiency. Cloud native architectures take full advantage of on-demand delivery, global deployment, elasticity, and higher-level services. They enable huge improvements in developer productivity, business agility, scalability, availability, utilization, and cost savings. Cloud Native technologies are used to develop applications built with services packaged in containers, deployed as microservices and managed on elastic infrastructure through agile DevOps processes and continuous delivery workflows.

Key Benefits:

  • Increase Developer Productivity

Give your developers the resources and environments they need to innovate and deliver applications faster on-premises or in the cloud. Leverage containers, cloud resources, and automation without compromising security and compliance.

  • Accelerate Time-To-Market

In a digital world, businesses need to move quickly to increase customer acquisition and retention. By building and deploying cloud native applications, IT can make quick updates and enhancements – so your business can deliver products and services at a more competitive pace.

  • Delivery Superior Experiences

Cloud native technologies provide resiliency and auto-scaling through the use of microservices – modular applications that can be deployed, updated, scaled, and restarted without impact to the system or end users. Enterprises and service providers can deliver superior customer experiences 24×7.

  • Gain Operational Efficiency

Businesses are running at a faster pace today but often struggle to respond quickly enough to changing market conditions. Cloud native applications help your business operate with efficiency through automation, self-service, telemetry, and analytics that scale out and up as needed.
