Enterprise application developers are under significant pressure from business leadership to accelerate their development speed to improve innovation and time-to-market. To achieve this, developers need to take more ownership of their applications’ lifecycles from development through production deployment by adjusting the structure of their partnership with IT. IT needs to enable this shift by empowering developers to take more ownership of application cost, security, and compliance through cloud management tools. With enterprises commonly operating across at least one public cloud and one private infrastructure, these tools must enable IT to simplify developer use of multiple infrastructure environments and to be more responsive to developer needs. Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) OneSphere offers enterprises a new hybrid cloud management platform provided as a service, enabling IT to address these challenges by empowering application developers with easy-to-use, self-service tools for cost management and application deployment across all of their public and private cloud infrastructure environments.
