Thank you to everyone who participated in this year’s Cloud Foundry Summit in Philadelphia, our second Summit on the east coast. I hope you had a fantastic time meeting others in the community and listening to some of the fascinating talks and demos from our users and members.
Here are some of the highlights from our announcements at Summit:
Project Eirini is Ready for Early Adoption + Certified SIs
We were thrilled to announce Project Eirini is now passing the core functional tests that validate Cloud Foundry Application Runtime releases, and moving quickly to production readiness. We also announced Accenture and HCL are the first two Certified Systems Integrators, following the program’s launch in October at the European Summit.
New Global Survey: Adaptation, Not Adoption, is the Key to Digital Transformation
We published a report based on our latest global research and announced key findings on stage at Summit. The data shows that companies are more confident than ever in cloud, with a majority putting most of their mission critical apps in the cloud. Read how adaptation to constant change is the only way forward in the latest report.
