- Barriers to integrating generative AI in applications | Free Industry Reports & Generative artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly becoming an integral part of the modern software ecosystem, significantly transforming how developers innovate and deliver value in their applications. In fact, this technology has already begun redefining software capabilities and introducing new technical considerations around model selection, integration methods, and user experience design. As of Q3 2025, a quarter (25%) of professional developers are adding generative AI features to their applications. However, this means that a large share of the developer population is still not building applications that utilise this technology. To understand this from the perspective of developers, we asked over 7,000 professional developers about the main barriers preventing them from integrating generative AI into their applications. For software engineering leaders, these insights provide a benchmark against peers and industries, helping them prioritise technology investments and prepare mitigation strategies for the challenges most likely to slow adoption.

- CNCF Technology Radar Q3 2025 | Free Industry Reports & As AI and machine learning workloads increasingly converge with cloud native infrastructure, understanding which tools developers trust and recommend becomes critical for technology strategy. This Technology Radar report surveys over 300 professional developers working with cloud native technologies to assess their experiences with AI inferencing engines, ML orchestration tools, and agentic AI platforms. The research categorises technologies into four adoption tiers — adopt, trial, assess, and hold — based on developer ratings of maturity, usefulness, and likelihood to recommend. For AI inferencing, NVIDIA Triton, DeepSpeed, TensorFlow Serving, and BentoML emerge as adoption leaders. In ML orchestration, Airflow and Metaflow achieve adopt status, while BentoML demonstrates cross-category versatility. For the rapidly evolving agentic AI space, Model Context Protocol (MCP) and Llama Stack show strong developer confidence. The findings reveal important patterns: technologies can excel in maturity while struggling with usefulness for specific use cases, high recommendation rates don't always correlate with top maturity scores, and cross-functional tools like BentoML can succeed in multiple domains without dominating any single category. With 41% of ML/AI developers now classified as cloud native—a proportion expected to grow — this research provides actionable intelligence for organisations building AI/ML infrastructure strategies. The report also highlights the CNCF ecosystem's crucial role in cultivating technologies from experimental innovations to production-ready infrastructure. Tech Market Research
Key Questions Answered Which AI inferencing tools do cloud native developers consider mature and reliable enough for production deployment? How do ML orchestration technologies compare in terms of developer satisfaction and recommendation likelihood? What are the emerging adoption patterns for agentic AI platforms and frameworks? Can technologies that span multiple use cases (like BentoML) achieve market leadership across all categories, or do specialized tools maintain advantages? Click to expand ACCESS THE FULL REPORT Methodology In our research, we employed Likert scales to capture developers' opinions on the maturity and usefulness, from 1 to 5 stars, of the various multicluster application management and batch computing technologies surveyed. While these ratings are inherently subjective, reflecting individual perceptions and experiences, they provide valuable insights into the developer community's views. The nature of our research is centered on investigating developer perceptions of these aspects, making the subjective nature of the ratings not only acceptable but also valuable for our analysis. Although the subjective nature of Likert scales may influence the interpretation of results, as different respondents may have varying standards for rating, this variability enriches our understanding of the developer experience. Respondents were initially asked about where their projects ran or were deployed, to identify their position as a ‘cloud developer.’ Following this, they were asked which technologies they were currently using that we associate with cloud native development approaches, including technologies such as Infrastructure as Code, service meshes, and serverless computing. Respondents were recruited from third-party panels. For privacy and data minimization purposes, exclusion is based on internal consistency and survey-taking behavior metrics. As such, information on the organization the respondent works for is not carried through to any analysis. This privacy also helps encourage greater honesty from respondents, who do not have concerns that their expressed opinion will be associated with them.

- Exploring the European cloud: How UpCloud used data to lead the data sovereignty conversation | Case studies | Tech Market Research
UpCloud partnered with SlashData to survey 300 cloud decision-makers in Europe/US, uncovering security, compliance and data-sovereignty drivers—shaping European cloud positioning and product bets. All Case Studies Exploring the European cloud: How UpCloud used data to lead the data sovereignty conversation The challenge UpCloud, a European cloud service provider, sought to publish a thought leadership report on the rapidly evolving cloud landscape, particularly around security, compliance, and data sovereignty. With increasing global attention on where data resides and how it is protected, UpCloud wanted to uncover how organisations across Europe and the US perceive these issues, and how such perceptions might drive the adoption of European cloud vendors. The company also aimed to use this data internally to guide product decisions and refine its messaging. The approach SlashData designed and fielded a custom survey reaching 300 cloud decision-makers in Europe and the US (professionals involved in the selection and management of cloud services within organisations of at least five employees). The study explored, among other things, organisations’ current and planned usage of European and US cloud service providers (CSPs), key selection factors, challenges organisations face in managing their cloud environments, motivations and barriers for adopting European CSPs, and their top priorities around cloud services and infrastructure in the next two years. The survey was hosted on SlashData’s proprietary research platform, ensuring high-quality responses through advanced data cleaning and fraud detection processes. The result The resulting report ( 2025 Cloud Landscape in Europe and the US ) provided UpCloud with a clear, data-backed narrative for both external and internal use. Key findings from the report included: More organisations across Europe and North America are looking to include European providers in their cloud strategies in the next two years Security, performance, and data privacy and residency are the top factors when considering cloud service providers. Free add-on services, trials, or credits are not enough to attract cloud decision-makers. Integrating AI into cloud infrastructure and processes is a key priority for one-third of cloud decision-makers over the next 1–2 years. The vast majority of organisations have already taken action or are preparing to support AI workloads on cloud infrastructure. Are you looking to publish a thought leadership report for your industry? Let’s work together. "SlashData was an amazing partner to work with. They really helped us shape our project from scratch, and showed a genuine commitment to helping us get the most value out of it. Running a survey is not as easy as some may think.
