Digital transformation is driving technology to rapidly evolve towards modernisation of applications with microservices-based architecture being at the core. With the ubiquitous adoption of Kubernetes, cloud-native container technologies are enabling microservices-based application modernization. Such architecture drives the value across the stack and eventually enables business spanning from small-to-medium businesses to large enterprises to be more agile. Such architectural pattern evolution applied across industry vertical drives the need for an infrastructure solution tailor-made for application modernization. In this talk, we present a vendor neutral viewpoint, experiences and observation of the application mordernization trend across the industry and how modern day hyper converged systems are emerging to cater to this growing need.
