As the shift to cloud, modern app architectures and technology stacks continue to accelerate, the demand for real-time analytics to monitor, troubleshoot, secure and speed new innovations to these environments is also accelerating. So, we’re not surprised to see demand for continuous intelligence—what we define as: real-time analytics from a cloud-native platform, supporting multiple use cases—is also accelerating.
Further proof of this is in 2019, Gartner named continuous intelligence a top ten data trend that will change business, predicting that, “by 2022, more than half of major new business systems will incorporate continuous intelligence that uses real-time context data to improve decisions.”
To learn more about this growing demand among executive technology decision-makers, we partnered with an independent research firm to conduct a continuous intelligence category health study. The resulting global report includes insights from 765 professionals with cloud-migration leadership responsibilities. Some of the key findings include:
- 88% of C-suite executives surveyed said they believe their company will benefit from continuous intelligence.
- 74% believe continuous intelligence will help drive companies’ speed and agility.
- 62% believe continuous intelligence is a new approach to data that many companies will need to embrace as they become more software-driven to drive revenue.
- 76% indicated they are likely to employ continuous intelligence within the next 12 months.
This, and more insights, including data on the key drivers for continuous intelligence demand — cloud migration, real-time analytics and the rise of DevSecOps — are included in the report.
