Use cloud native apps to meet customers’ expectations

A telco company determines that its top priority is meeting customers where they are — on their devices. The development team starts by building a mobile app that allows customers to pay bills and see usage data. The team also decides to build this app in the cloud. This will keep their costs down and provide the ability to update the app easily when customers ask for additional features.
