The latest Rackspace survey on data and application modernization shows 78% of APAC respondents recognizing they won\u2019t benefit from AIif they fail to modernize legacy apps and data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The most critical apps and data to modernize were identified as CRM (89%), enterprise (87%), business intelligence (74%), HR (73%) data analytics (54%), governance and security (46%) and data integration (41%).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Challenges to modernization ranged from limited resources (27%), cultures resistant to change (20%), integration challenges (17%), lack of senior buy-in (10%), lack of a clear roadmap (9%) and communication between stakeholders (8%).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIt is telling that even well into their cloud journey, the three most critical apps organizations say they need to upgrade are truly at the heart of the business because they are at once the most important things to modernize and the most challenging,\u201d said Jeff DeVerter, Chief Technology Evangelist, Rackspace Technology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cAt the same time, it is encouraging to see leaders understand that app modernization is key to getting the most out of cutting-edge technologies. It could be that the prospect of losing out on AI will motivate organizations to finally get off the sidelines when it comes to modernization of core systems.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
