Webinar: Modern Applications and Their Impact on SAM

This webinar focuses on modern software applications (hybrid, micro-services, containers, APIs, etc.) and the implications they have on business users, development practices, and ultimately, Software Asset Management (SAM). As with everything else, these developments bring benefits and risks.

Software environments continue to evolve and become increasingly complex. For SAM to stay relevant, it must also evolve. It must embrace the use of modern technology and evolve into a ‘centre of excellence’ that supports distributed technology management, enhances technology experiences, and optimises business value.

Join Martin Thompson and AJ Witt for an insightful discussion that explores these challenges, opportunities, and the need for SAM to shift.
