Description:
Hybrid environments make delivering on projects hard, but observability is key, SolarWinds claims.

FULL STORY ======================================================================

Hybrid and remote working has made distributed IT environment management that much more challenging, and as a result, the vast majority of IT pros believe the Return on Investment (ROI) on recent projects has been severely diminished.

SolarWinds latest report, titled Getting IT right: Managing hybrid IT complexity, discovered that a third (33%) of IT professionals agree
complexity added between four and seven months of extra work to their projects.

For SolarWinds President and CEO, Sudhakar Ramakrishna, the results are clear - businesses are struggling to digitally transform, all thanks to rising IT environment complexity. Amplified by a global move towards hybrid and remote work, applications and workloads are now run across both cloud and
on-premises infrastructure. This is not only hindering the ability to deliver benefits to end users in a timely fashion but also significantly impacting
the bottom line, he concluded. Observability the key?

To tackle the problem of rising complexities, Ramakrishna further explained, businesses are turning towards observability. Such practice can help them understand where to prioritize their efforts, helps their teams manage hybrid IT environments more effectively, and in turn, helps them hit their ROI
goals.

This spells long-term success for teams, businesses, and their customers, Ramakrishna concluded.

This is not the first time SolarWinds has warned about rising IT environment complexity, or urged businesses to look deeper into observability as a potential solution. Read more
