About this webinar:

The pandemic has been an unrelenting test our digital maturity – and many businesses that have talked a good talk have had critical weaknesses highlighted. Supply chain issues have meant businesses have been caught out by demand. Meanwhile, websites have become overloaded by the near-universal switch to online shopping.

With rules and circumstances changing sometimes daily, we’ve hit ‘peak agile’ as applications and database have had to be updated in a matter of hours. And with a working from home culture, the reliance on fully managed cloud services has never been more critical.

It’s no surprise that many IT decision makers are clamouring for the cloud Database-as-a-Service (DBaaS).

This webinar, in which we’ll reveal Computing’s latest research in this area, reflects on how prepared our respondents’ data architecture was going into the pandemic and the role databases have to play in the ability to react and pivot in a crisis. We’ll also reveal how the past year has accelerated the move away from relational databases, the impact of edge and cloud, and how transformation projects are now the number one priority for all organisations.
