Software is Cloud Pioneers Are Eating The World
...
At the dawn of the space age, we asked
Do test pilots have the right stuff to be astronauts?
Some did.In the cloud era, an explosion of cloud services and developer tools turned technical leaders into pioneers where architecture, people, and process choices can make or sink companies.
What is The Right Stack?
The correct mix of people, skills, and technology needed to build a business with software is constantly in flux. Meanwhile, the scale of what small development teams can accomplish continues to rise. Unfortunately, the forums available to today's pioneers are largely misaligned with your needs, leading to an avalanche of bad advice.Advancing the craft of building a business on the cloud occurs in private chat groups, communities dependent on vendor and investor patronage, and research by analyst firms serving large enterprise teams and IT vendors.The Right Stack seeks to advance the craft with a vendor and investor-independent community and research.
Are you building the right stack?
If you are building a software-driven business on the cloud, do you already have the right stuff to choose the right stack? What are the board meeting questions where you answer from your gut, but suspect there is a better way to know?
If you lead a team of fewer than 200 engineers, please take a few minutes with this survey. and get a snapshot of how your organization stacks up.
