Last week, Catchpoint was one of the sponsors of Splunk’s half-day DevOps & Observability Best Practices event. It was a jampacked conference that examined what observability is, its key drivers, and how observability and monitoring exist “like two peas in a pod”, perfect compliments to one another in enabling enterprise to better understand overall systems behavior and health.

Last month, Catchpoint’s CEO, Mehdi Daoudi, took part in episode 3 of the MIT Sloan CIO Digital Learning Series focused on the post-pandemic workplace and customer experience. Episode 4, which took place over Zoom on Wednesday, September 9th, picked up where last month left off with a candid discussion between business leaders, consultants and MIT academics about the ongoing challenges enterprise is experiencing due to COVID-19 and how business leaders and others are handling them.

The COVID-19 pandemic has been difficult for enterprises. Our CIO New Normal survey shows a litany of issues CIOs are dealing with. We discussed these challenges in our previous blogs here and here. But we also took note of the fact that some enterprises are actually doing quite well.

Cloud adoption has continued to push the momentum on digital transformation. The initial apprehension within enterprises on managing the disruption caused by the ongoing pandemic has slowly waned. Enterprises now have a clearer picture of the situation and are moving forward. The need for online collaboration and online meetings has forced most enterprises to rely more on cloud services for managing their workforce and to provide an environment that allows employees to work remotely.
