- 7. Key Industry trends Experience matters “Choose your weapons!” Integration != complex Make easy things even easier Involve end users? SaaS adoption Distributed data sources Protocols Authentications Hybrid is reality Some apps will never move Unified tooling Unified management Out-of-box Broad availability of components Less code and more configuration-based Extensibility 1st party experience for 3rd party component Ecosystem and marketplace Mobility & IOT Variety of devices Access to business processes outside enterprise boundaries
- 8. APIs and API economy CloudHybrid IT Mobile Big data IoT Microservices Nanoservices
- 9. The ”Future” Environment • Distributed applications, services, and data • Own apps to cloud • APIs • External and internal • More event based messaging • Incoming data (IoT) 12/10/2016 www.bilot.fi 9

Extending, enriching and providing CORE-layer logic or data. Cloud: PaaS. Application platforms. DW & Unstr. Hadoop, integration & API services. Consumption and exploration of ENABLEMENT- layer services. Cloud: SaaS/outer PaaS/None. Apps, websites, devices, end-points, sensors, touch-points, UI/UX of application platforms. 12/10/2016 www.bilot.fi 12 ENABLEMENT2 CORE3 SPEED COST Changing the CORE is costly and requires domain specific skills. Changes in the RESPONSIVE layer are cheap because metaskills can be utilized. SPEED Speed and volume of changes increase when moving towards the edge of the RESPONSIVE layer. There is no fast or slow, as all development should be done as fast as possible. RISK Un-tested and unplanned changes in the CORE can take down a whole enterprise. And, vice-versa: changes gone wrong on the outer layer should affect a single business outcome at worst. RESPONSIVE1
