The pressure is on for organizations to innovate faster, respond to market changes better, and work smarter. To power the continuous delivery and agility they need for DevOps, companies of all sizes, in every industry, are embracing the cloud. In a recent survey, 92 percent of participants were using multiple cloud vendors.
