Factors Affecting DevOps Engineer Staffing Levels
DevOps is a natural extension of agile development into the deployment and operational phases of the system life cycle. It has been a way of life among modern, cloud-native software developers, and it is also starting to become popular within enterprise IT organizations, especially those that invest in custom software development. Yet, DevOps engineers are a small percentage of the total IT staff, even among such enterprises. This Research Byte outlines the reasons for this.

Combining Technology and Domain Expertise to Deliver Touchless Claims Experience
With uncertain macroeconomic conditions, an increasing number of natural calamities, and rising inflation, insurers are dealing with a huge volume of claims. Insurers must find new ways to continue innovating through this challenging period. For property and casualty (P&C) insurance providers, this translates to a significant impact on nearly every category of insurance due to the rising claims expenses and costs. Even though they are losing money, they need to invest continuously to offer better quality and customer experience. With the emergence of technologies such as IoT, AI, and telematics, insurers can adopt a more proactive strategy for forecasting, identifying, and mitigating risks, and to support these, they rely on outsourcing claims processing to service providers. This is evident from a 15%–20% increase in the revenue of claims processing outsourcing service providers between March 2022 and March 2023. Demand-side and supply-side trends are covered in our Claims Processing Business Process Transformation 2023 Market Insights™ and Claims Processing Business Process Transformation 2023 RadarView™, respectively.
