Application Portfolio Management Tools
Application portfolio management (APM) tools support the cataloging, evaluating and managing of software applications throughout their life cycle. The objective of APM is to derive the maximum possible lifetime value from application investments, at managed risk. APM tools house the application inventory and enable long-term planning, recommend improvements to the portfolio, categorize risk and maximize business value. The tools are used by enterprise application leaders, application owners or governance teams, and enterprise architects.

Application Security Testing
Gartner defines the application security testing (AST) market as consisting of providers of products that enable organizations to assess applications for the presence and management of risk. These products identify risk by evaluating source code, performing runtime tests and inspecting supply chain components. AST products can be integrated throughout development workflows for continuous assessment or be used to perform ad hoc evaluations. They enable organizations to manage application risks by providing an integrated set of capabilities for risk identification, prioritization and triage, policy evaluation and enforcement, and remediation assistance. Market offerings are available in on-premises, SaaS and hybrid delivery models. Organizations leverage AST products to assess applications for the presence of security vulnerabilities and other risks (e.g., legal and operational) throughout their life cycle. These assessments are used to measure and manage the risks within individual applications, application components or groups of applications in the context of their business criticality and other key attributes (e.g., environment, sensitive data handling, etc.). AST products further enable organizations to evaluate software for compliance with internal policies as well as regulatory requirements established by governments or authoritative industry groups.

Cloud Management Tooling (Transitioning to Cloud Financial Management Tools)
Cloud management tooling enables organizations to manage hybrid and multicloud (that is, on-premises, public cloud and edge) services and resources. This includes providing governance, life cycle management, brokering and automation for managed cloud infrastructure resources across multiple functional areas. The tooling can be procured and operated by central IT organizations, such as I&O, cloud center of excellence (CCOE) and platform engineering/operations, or within specific lines of business. It can be deployed on-premises, in a customer’s public cloud account or purchased as a SaaS.

Developer Productivity Insight Platforms
Gartner defines developer productivity insight platforms as solutions that provide software engineering leaders with both quantitative and quantitative visibility into the engineering team’s use of time and resources, operational effectiveness, and progress on value delivery. This enables software engineering leaders and their teams to find and remove productivity blockers, making teams more effective and efficient. Developer productivity insight platforms ingest and analyze large volumes of data generated by common engineering tools and systems. They provide rich, tailored and role-specific user experiences to help leaders more easily identify constraints, spot important trends and gain contextual insights.

Green Software Engineering
Green software engineering is the discipline of building sustainable software that is carbon-efficient and carbon-aware. Carbon efficiency aims to reduce carbon emissions throughout the software development life cycle. Carbon awareness involves optimizing software to utilize low-carbon energy sources. Building green software involves making energy-efficient choices in architecture and design patterns, algorithms, data structures, programming languages, language runtimes and infrastructure. This leads to lower operational costs, improved performance, and alignment with organizational sustainability goals. The benefits extend to developers, architects, product teams, and enterprises committed to ESG standards, while end users gain faster, more efficient applications. Ultimately, green software engineering helps organizations create resilient, high performing systems that minimize environmental impact without compromising functionality.

Strategic Portfolio Management
Gartner defines the strategic portfolio management (SPM) market as comprising both cloud-based and on-premises applications for enterprisewide strategic planning and execution, supporting advanced portfolio management. SPM offerings integrate multiple portfolios with interdependent structures, creating a dynamic model of the path to realize strategic outcomes. These products are ideally suited for organizations pursuing digital strategies, which demand extensive stakeholder collaboration to continually adapt to changing conditions. Organizations use SPM to align portfolios with strategy and apply value-based decision making for ongoing flexibility in the midst of progress, disruptions and opportunities. Digital strategies combine portfolios representing different contexts, such as business capabilities, investments, applications, services, assets, programs, products and projects. Strategists, business leaders, IT leaders and PMOs cooperatively align the utilization of these diverse portfolios to progressively achieve strategic objectives.
