Modernizing enterprise applications to a cloud native architecture is not an endeavor for the faint of heart. Though many organizations struggle to complete K8s modernization projects, mid-sized companies start out particularly disadvantaged.
System integrators, value-added resellers and managed service providers grant themselves a natural head start over in-house teams through hard-won experience.
The cloud native ecosystem is different from the proprietary vendor world, as most of the architecture is based on open source projects and components.
There is pent-up demand for modernization project help within companies that haven’t yet built up enough cloud native skills in-house.
