How digital maturity impacts business challenges – and the Enterspeed fix ✔️

When companies begin their digital transformation journey, the level of their digital maturity really affects the challenges they face. From what we’ve seen, these obstacles change across four stages of digital maturity – from clinging to (outdated) legacy systems to reaching scalable and innovative operations.

👀 So, this is how we see the four levels of digital maturity:

1. Surviving on legacy systems

Many companies still rely on outdated technology. And quite often, that causes high operational costs and data siloes. They often find it hard to adapt to new digital demands – and even if they want to, their tech stack doesn’t always allow it, which leaves them with slow processes and inflexible infrastructures.

2. Incremental modernisation

In this phase, companies begin integrating cloud technologies and replacing end-of-life systems – often with best-of-breed. However, custom code and scattered cloud adoption bring new issues, and managing all these multiple systems becomes challenging without proper orchestration.

3. Digital-first operations

Businesses with digital-first operations typically manage a mix of custom integrations through orchestration. But these efforts often result in heavy development processes, bottlenecks, and low agility when scaling. *sigh*

4. Scalable & innovative

You think you’ve set your company up pretty good with a modern architecture geared for innovation. And then you get smacked in the face with of out-of-control cloud costs and you need to manage an increasing number of expensive licenses. Companies at this stage might be able to scale their stack quickly, but it’s often at unsustainable costs due to inefficient data distribution.

How does Enterspeed support digital transformation?

So, now you’re probably wondering how Enterspeed fit in to all this. Right? Well, we provide a middle layer solution for orchestration and content federation that caters to companies at any stage of digital maturity. How, you ask?

For Legacy systems

We actually offer safe, speedy, and simple ways to display and distribute data. It reduces the load on legacy systems, creating space for gradual modernisation without overwhelming the current infrastructure.

If you want to know more, check out this use case 👉 Speeding up legacy systems.

For Incremental modernisation

Our middle layer abstracts and decouples legacy systems, enabling you to combine new and old technologies seamlessly. This approach supports smoother transitions and minimises the complexity of integrating modern solutions.
