Cloud Catalog works alongside Cloud Roster as a worldwide tech trend index. It collates information about the popularity of cloud technologies, frameworks, and vendor platforms from a number of different sources including developer communities to help businesses understand how they need to adapt to the changing technology landscape.
"Cloud Roster and Cloud Catalog empower our broader community to visualise the impressive changes brought about by increased multi-cloud adoption, the evolution of technical job roles, and the dynamic nature of skill demand," said Stefano Bellasio, CEO at Cloud Academy.
"Building these tools by leveraging proven data techniques allows us to continue to serve forward-thinking enterprises in their efforts to achieve digital transformation."
