Driving agility with containers
As organizations look to accelerate their pace of innovation, they are increasingly
modernizing their digital backbone of applications and development practices. Building
a modern application means building with the latest technologies and development
techniques that support greater agility and improved performance, security, and reliability
while lowering the total cost of ownership (TCO). Today, many modern applications are
built and deployed as a collection of modular services running on managed container
orchestrators and serverless compute technologies that support agility and reduce
operational overhead. By modernizing with containers, organizations can deliver better
services to customers and keep pace in a competitive landscape. This eBook will discuss
containerization and how container services on Amazon Web Services (AWS) can help
organizations wherever they are on their modernization journey.
Meet growing demands with application modernization
on AWS
Digital transformation empowers companies of all sizes to find new ways to leverage
technology to boost their agility and better respond to evolving customer needs.
Businesses continue to face customer expectations to deliver services swiftly and efficiently.
For many companies, an initial step toward digital transformation is modernizing their
applications and taking advantage of the managed services, scale, and automation offered
by the cloud.
A common approach to modernizing applications is container-based deployment. Containers
in the cloud, on premises, or in a hybrid environment are a powerful way for developers to
package and deploy their applications. Whether an organization is new to containers or seeks
to improve its existing container strategy, AWS provides choices to help reduce operational
efforts and achieve performance excellence, all while delivering cost benefits.
