Nearly three quarters of organizations have now adopted DevOps in some form, cross-platform database use has risen markedly and, significantly, IT teams have remained remarkably productive despite working remotely.

"It helped to accelerate our understanding of the ways IT teams can cooperate and continue to develop applications and databases when taking a remote-first approach. That, in turn, has accelerated further the take-up of DevOps, the use of multiple database platforms for different use cases, and the move to the cloud."

Equally important, a clear correlation between DevOps adoption and software delivery performance has emerged, with high performers able to release both application and database changes faster, more frequently, and with fewer errors.

Twenty-six percent have two databases, and nearly half of respondents use three or more databases.

The majority of respondents, 84%, also expect the budget for database management and tooling to stay at least the same or increase in the next 12 months, indicating the importance of it within the overall IT strategy.

"As Lamik concludes:"The rise of DevOps for both application and database development helped mitigate many of the challenges organizations faced as part of their digital transformation journeys.
