Digital transformation requires Hybrid Cloud + API Management
+ DevOps
 Maximize enterprise value by balancing the use of internal assets and external services at
scale
– Expose business critical services through APIs as your platform agnostic language within
the context of a hybrid cloud
 Modernize business critical applications to gain business agility
– Componentize them leveraging java, system APIs and Micro services
 Evolve applications and services at the speed of business
– Leverage a cross-platform DevOps solutions to gain necessary speed and agility
HYBRID CLOUD API Management DEVOPS & AGILITY

The Digital Transformation Challenge: Evolve business
critical assets for the hybrid cloud era with minimal time, risk
and cost
 Many clients are risk averse and avoid
modifying their aging business-critical
applications
 Changes are often manual and therefore
error prone, relying on few employees with
domain expertise
 Applications are often poorly documented,
resulting in increased risk and effort
 Sizing change effort is difficult if the
understanding of business-critical
applications is limited
 Ramping up new hires to work effectively
with business critical applications is often
tedious
Clients that have invested in
modernization have unlocked the
value of existing assets accelerating
their digital transformation

But beware of bi-modal IT
Managing two separate modes of IT
delivery for:
• Stability (slow)
• Agility (fast)
Big problem! Business innovation is
held back by the slowest team.
This delivery style will slowly kill your
business!
The Bi-modal IT Myth
Comp
The Multi-Speed Reality
Managing to stability and agility across ALL
teams using DevOps and Agile principles for
multi-speed delivery:
• Rapidly develop with stability
• Leverage skills across teams to boost
innovation
• Adopt agile methodologies on all teams
Innovate at the speed of your business!

Achieved
cost avoidance of more
than USD2.3 million per
year
Improved
the ability to demonstrate
compliance with
regulations
The transformation: As it prepared to launch a critical new
application, Fidelity Worldwide Investment wanted to replace its
manual release processes with an automated release solution.
The solution helped reduce the time required for software releases
by 99 percent, from 2 - 3 days to just 1 - 2 hours. The company also
achieved cost avoidance of more than USD2.3 million per year.
“Applications that took days to
release now take just an hour.”

You must synchronize plans, development, test and deployment across platforms
and technologies – because enterprise applications look like the above!
