About Cloud Native skills
Cloud Native development is maturing rapidly and permanently changing how modern software is built – reducing cost and increasing speed to market.
Moving to a model where IT continuously deliver services instead of delivering a static product is dependent on developing teams skilled in using Cloud Native tools. For tech teams still operating in the traditional silos of database, application or infrastructure delivery, moving to Cloud Native may seem daunting.
To start, the team leader must understand where each member of his/her team sits on the modern development skills spectrum and have a plan to build the Cloud Native talent capabilities that the organisation needs.
