As more customers look to these game-changing approaches in order to innovate, the role of cloud technologies and partners will become an essential factor to success.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs technology continues to shift at a rapid pace, it\u2019s becoming increasingly difficult for customers to keep pace with the competition,\u201d said Tarhan. \u201cTo differentiate, organizations need to innovate by taking advantage of the full capabilities of the cloud. Companies on the frontlines of cloud technologies will be better-positioned to break through the noise and better poised for long-term growth.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Following the keynote, Tarhan will be joined by panelists from AWS, International Air Transport Association and Rackspace Technology to discuss timely issues like the common misconceptions around cloud native, Agile methodologies, the role of people and processes in cloud innovation, and the future of serverless vs. container solutions.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNow more than ever, organizations are turning to cloud native to help them innovate,\u201d said Cheryl Hung, VP of Ecosystem at Cloud Native Computing Foundation and moderator of this event. \u201cBut with so many common misconceptions about the approach, its adoption can be difficult to implement.
