HOW TO TRANSFORM YOUR BUSINESS IN A DIGITAL WORLD   •

Introducton No mater your industry, technology plays a central role in your ability to stay ahead of the competton. That’s why just about every company is investng in and building software to power their business: From Silicon Valley start-ups to established real estate frms, business leaders are looking inward at their tech stack and their developers, and are startng to think like a software company. Think of how the banking industry has evolved from in-person to ATMs to online to mobile. Now, people can deposit and withdraw money in seconds. And when it comes to paying: we’ve gone from swiping a card to insertng a chip, tapping to pay, and then being able to pay with your phone or watch. This is how fast technology is acceleratng. To keep up, thousands of development tools have been created in the past decade. But we’ve learned some important lessons along the way: More tools don’t always correlate with productvity. In fact, bringing in more tools risks creatng a fragmented, inefcient developer experience and slow tme to market. Developers are almost 60% more likely to feel equipped to do their job when they can easily fnd what they need. An end-to-end, centralized platform like GitHub Enterprise empowers developers with tools they already know and love, accelerates high-quality software development and secure delivery, and enhances the speed and power of innovaton.

Today’s industry challenges In order to become more compettve in an already compettve market, companies are under increased pressure to deliver secure software at scale and manage increasingly large development teams. All of that while getng the best product to market quickly and creatng a good customer experience. There are scores of challenges to overcome, which we’ll outline below. The good thing: None of them are insurmountable. Insufcient supply of developers: The demand for developers is growing: According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statstcs, the demand for software developers, including software engineers, will increase 22% between 2022 and

onboard them—another process that requires tme and resources, and impacts tme to deployment in its beginning phases. Tech stack complexites: To keep up with the ever-evolving tech landscape, DevOps leaders are forced to add more and more tools to their tech stack. This means that defning, maintaining, and provisioning development environments becomes harder, and developers have to spend more tme context switching between diferent tools and less tme writng code. Security: According to the 2022 Open Source Risk Assessment, out of the 17 industries represented, four contained open source in 100% of their code bases. The remaining vertcals had open source in 93% to 99% of their code bases.

While it’s incredibly benefcial to reuse code, companies struggle with doing this securely. In fact, 77% of faws in third-party libraries remain unfxed after three months. With atackers on the rise, companies need a security soluton that surfaces vulnerabilites before they’re introduced and makes remediaton simple. Remote work: In GitHub’s 2021 State of the Octoverse report, we found that only about 11% of our respondents expect to go back to working in person, a 30% drop from the 41% working in an ofce before. While there are many benefts to remote work—from saving costs on ofce space to being able to hire the best talent, no mater their locaton—the need to stay in sync and collaborate is that much greater. Whether they’re in New York or Shanghai, to run at full speed, teams need a solid process in place, a workfow that’ll seamlessly take them through merging pull requests to deployment without missing a beat.
