70% of firms still shoulder 40% higher operational costs because they haven’t moved from legacy Dev Platforms to cloud-native, self-serve models. Switching to cloud-native platforms delivers a measurable surge in developer productivity. Legacy Developer Platform Hinders Developer Productivity In my experience, the friction of a monolithic developer platform shows
