Sumo Logic Unveils 2017 'State of Modern Applications in the Cloud' Report - Seite 2

Key findings of the report include:

Linux OS is a legitimate option across all cloud platforms.

• Linux is the dominant OS in AWS.
• Linux is also growing dramatically in Azure from four percent (2016) to 12 percent (2017).

Containers and functions growth is unprecedented.

• AWS Docker adoption has grown from 18 percent (2016) to 24 percent (2017).
• AWS Lambda adoption has almost doubled from 12 percent (2016) to 23 percent (2017).

Legacy vendors are struggling to find relevance in the modern app world.

• MySQL is the number one database running in AWS, and along with Redis and MongoDB, accounts for 40 percent of database adoption.
• Microsoft SQL and Oracle DB significantly lag in terms of usage in AWS and are only adopted by a combined six percent of customers.
• NGINX and Apache are the leading web servers in AWS.

Organizations are uncovering a cloud security paradox.

• Security remains a top concern for enterprises moving to the cloud as their legacy on premise security/SIEM tools are insufficient.
• Unfortunately only 50 percent of enterprises are leveraging CloudTrail, the primary security audit for AWS.
• Enterprises of all sizes must leverage security, networking and audit services from their native cloud providers.
