Modern applications at maximum speed
What is modern application development?
Modern app development is the rapid creation, maintenance, and management of applications that run across complex hybrid cloud environments without modification. This approach lets organizations get the most benefit from innovative technologies like containers and microservices, as well as from game-changing practices like agile, DevOps, and continuous integration and deployment (CI/CD).
Are your new apps already old?
If you're developing new apps using legacy platforms and processes, they could be out of date before they debut. And if you're creating what your customers want on separate systems, applications can't share resources across environments. Maintaining a mix of old and new app stacks is inefficient and time-consuming. It keeps your staff from growing skills and planning for your future.
High-performing organizations deploy apps

more frequently than low-performing ones

Everything must happen faster
Your customers aren't willing to wait, and your competitors certainly won’t. Since you can't meet new demands with old approaches, something has to change.
Modern platforms
FICO built their Decision Management Platform, letting customers use FICO tools and technology to create, customize, and deploy apps and services
Agile architectures
Volvo used containers and automatic provisioning—improving management and making app life cycles fast and reliable.
Nimble processes
KeyBank built an automated continuous delivery pipeline, and went from deploying new apps once a quarter to updating weekly.
Getting started
5 places to start making up-to-date apps
Java™ and J2EE™ apps are hard to maintain, and lack portability. Move them to containers so your IT staff can keep things running, but still have time to innovate.
Resources:
Technology and infrastructure requests can really slow things down. Add a lightweight app platform with the right tools to make room for fast, flexible, new approaches like microservices, mobile, and hybrid cloud.
Resources:
Complex environments require process and automation improvements. Build apps around repeatable processes to ensure app logic is auditable and predictable.
Resources:
Whether building new apps or updating existing ones, you need them yesterday. With coordinated practices and processes that span development and operations, you can move faster.
Resources:
You need accurate, real-time connections to employees in the field. A secure Mobile Backend-as-a-Service (MBaaS) can make sure apps are available anywhere.

Overcoming challenges
Clear your clogged development pipeline
Even a small change can speed up your flow. But look for your biggest challenges, because those improvements will have the greatest impact.
Outdated platform
How can I try out microservices, containers, or public cloud when my app platform can’t keep up?
Solution
It might be time to try a container-based application platform. It lets you modernize critical existing apps and build new ones.
Slow app delivery
How do I get new tools and features to my customers faster?
Solution
A container platform, DevOps practices, and improved integration can all help speed app delivery.
Lack of mobile management
How do I connect and control mobile device use?
Solution
Create mobile projects that let you interact in new and better ways with customers and employees.
Process "in"visibility
How do I get a better look at my business processes, and keep up with what’s going on in real time?
Solution
Business process management tools can not only help you see your business flow, but also let you create better processes and maintain compliance.
Doing things differently
Prepare for your new development path
The apps you need can't be bought—and you can't build them in the same old ways. But you do have choices about how you move forward. What's your next step?
Containers
Containers let you package and isolate applications. But what do they have to do with Linux®? And how can you use popular technologies from Docker and Kubernetes?
DevOps
DevOps is an approach to platform, automation, and business culture that emphasizes rapid, iterative work. How can you help your business move faster? Build data-driven applications, and apply DevOps principles to the Internet of Things.
Mobile
Mobile apps are changing the way businesses operate, how they engage with customers, and what those customers expect. How can you transform your business to be mobile-first? Modernize development with a shared platform.
