Applications Unleashed 2021

Emerging trends to unlock your potential

Is your Application Landscape good enough to handle the unexpected, the unforeseen?

In order to keep up with evolving market demands and retain a competitive edge your organization needs to move away from legacy architecture and adopt new technologies and techniques. The application portfolio of a thriving business must be lightweight, easy to connect to, and built on the shoulders of cloud-native capabilities, predicting and adapting to ever-changing demands and requirements.

Applications Unleashed brings you thought leadership from Capgemini experts, with a focus on innovations in Application Development. Split into multiple chapters, Applications Unleashed provides actionable advice on the trends we’re observing in this space, with expert insight into cloud native, Agile, DevOps, MACH architecture, SAP, AI and much more.

Break Away from Monoliths

The future of application development needs to be modular and light on its feet. Our chapter on monoliths focuses on accelerating transformation through the adoption of a cloud native approach and Domain Driven Design as a crucial first step. Featuring articles by Capgemini digital transformation and innovation experts Marien Krouwel, Robert Kooloos, Sjoukje Zaal, Jade Eloff, René van Leusen, Anand Gupta, Rahul Khandelwal and Rich Minns , we discuss the need to dismantle monolithic architecture in favour of microservices, API, cloud native and Headless (MACH), the growing demand for high-performing Progressive Web Applications, and how the shortage of coding experts can be remedied with low code/no code platforms.

The Agile and DevOps way of Working!

Agile and DevOps have earned reputations for defining the way we approach software development today. And yet, despite being widely revered, there are those that question whether Agile has become obsolete, with some leaders struggling to achieve the desired level of performance from their Agile teams. Our Capgemini Agile and DevOps experts, Rik Pennartz, Stijn Follet, Saket Kulkarni, Matthijs Greep and Sanne Kuijpers, argue that it’s not the framework that’s the issue – but rather the way in which it’s applied. What many businesses forget is that it’s people, not tools, that drive a successful Agile/DevOps transformation. It’s all about finding the right team and making Agile and DevOps frameworks fit your individual needs.
