New Relic recruits former Qlik, Delphix execs to boost ANZ team

"Societal shutdowns to curb the spread of the coronavirus have forced people to consume services online, and accelerated digital transformation projects in both the public and private sectors.
"The pandemic has hastened investments in technology as agencies in states and territories move to swiftly digitally deliver everything from apps to electronic forms for border permits. Their federal counterparts are in the same boat with its COVID-19 assistance programs for individuals and SMEs," she says.
"Some retailers have registered record growth since lockdown measures took hold in March, with strong demand expected well into the Christmas period thanks to online sales.
"As a result, having full observability across every customer touch point has never been more important."
States like New South Wales, for example, announced a record $1.6 billion Digital Restart Fund during the pandemic.
