Welcome to the NTT DATA Tech Blog

We began writing about cloud technologies, DevOps and the broader ecosystem of tools and best practices a little over seven years ago under the banner of the Flux7 blog. We are excited to share that the blog has moved locations to NTT DATA and will now be called the NTT DATA Tech Blog. While the name has changed, our coverage will largely stay the same as we continue writing about cutting edge cloud tech that drive digital transformation, sharing our ongoing insights, strategies and best practices from across hundreds of client projects. 

With our new home comes access to even more experts from across a spectrum of technologies and industries – all of which means we can expand the depth and breadth of stories we share with you. For example, in the days and weeks ahead, we look forward to exploring topics such as service mesh, hybrid and multi-cloud, remote desktops for high performance workstations, and much more.
