The latest Cloud Foundry Global Perceptions Study, the tenth wave of research among 500+ IT professionals and execs conducted by ClearPath Strategies, details how developers, faced with an increasingly complex, multi-cloud environment, are turning to technologies—like PaaS and serverless—that abstract away complexity and provide consistency across platforms.
