Navigating the Hype Cycle for Platform Engineering: Ab Ovo and Green Software Engineering
In the dynamic world of technology, staying ahead of the curve requires not only innovation but also a strategic approach to harnessing emerging trends. Gartner’s Hype Cycle for Platform Engineering provides a comprehensive roadmap to understanding the lifecycle of technological advancements, and one of the standout areas this year is Green Software Engineering. Notably, Ab Ovo has been recognized as a sample vendor in this category, thanks to its pioneering Eco Logic Platform.
Understanding the Hype Cycle
Gartner’s Hype Cycle is a graphical representation that illustrates the maturity, adoption, and social application of specific technologies. It comprises five key phases:
- Innovation Trigger: A breakthrough, public demonstration, or product launch generates significant interest.
- Peak of Inflated Expectations: Early publicity produces success stories—often accompanied by failures.
- Trough of Disillusionment: Interest wanes as experiments and implementations fail to deliver.
- Slope of Enlightenment: More instances of how technology can benefit the enterprise start to crystallize and become more widely understood.
- Plateau of Productivity: Mainstream adoption starts to take off. Criteria for assessing provider viability are more clearly defined.
