The progressive industrialisation of the Cloud means that, while many enterprises have begun to build cloud-native applications, they can now move a step further and create cloud-native business capabilities.

This year, we're undertaking a research project into The Industrialization of Technology. We use this term to mean the shift of a technology from a world of product competition to one of commodities and operational competition. This shift has a known set of impacts, including the co-evolution of practice that enables new needs to be met and new forms of industry, organization and behaviour to emerge. We've all seen this before with the advent of the world wide web evolving to the introduction of the cloud. There are many new waves heading towards us.

This is our fourth Map Camp and we’re going back to school.  In other words, we're learning all over again how to run a conference – this time in a virtual world.

Map Camp is a community event.  It consists of a series of lectures from renowned speakers and mappers from across the globe.  This year, we’re mixing up the format given its virtual nature.  The conference itself will use three tracks or windows into the world of mapping – the square, the round and the arch.  Each window will be running sessions of three speakers with short talks followed by a discussion between the speakers. 

More information will be provided soon.

One form of disruption deals with product versus product, such as Apple vs Nokia. It is unpredictable and tends to change an industry. We call this substitution. Another form of disruption deals with the evolution of product to commodity or utility. Examples of this include Apple vs Android, servers vs cloud or runtime vs serverless. It is predictable and tends to change societies. We call this industrialization.
