What’s driving digital transformation in retail?

Retailers are facing crippling competition from e-commerce giants, and a sharp drop in foot traffic due to COVID-19. To survive, many have invested in new scalable online stores and big data analytics. Robust edge-based technology such as RFID tags, smart warehousing and logistics, digital signage, and wireless payment terminals are also in high demand. Many retailers are even investing in digital workspace solutions to give home working employees the same secure, reliable access to the apps and customer insights as in-store workers.

Industry Challenges

  • Retailers must drive rapid digital transformation to build differentiating omni-channel customer experiences but are concerned by the lack of agility and lock-in offered by legacy IT infrastructure solutions.
  • DevOps teams want to run high-performance data processing workloads in distributed locations like POS units and self-service kiosks but don't want to abandon any of their cloud-native capabilities.
