Wonderful post and great analysis/research. I feel there's a large piece of this puzzle missing - Low code - especially in the DevOps space. Tools like Budibase[1] and [2] Retool are integrating with the IT stack and offer a great solution for building internal apps in the data infra stack.

100%. You know, I actually scrapped a version of the market map that had an 'Automation' category. I didn't know if other people would agree with me that they are in infrastructure versus application. I have companies like Retool, Airplane, Moveworks, Robocorp, etc in there. Your comment inspired me to do a post on Automation in the future.

Awesome. I've never heard of Airplane or Moveworks, but I am a huge fan of Retool, Robocorp and Budibase.

Very interesting series, Sai! Have you looked into the SaaS Management space. Where do SaaS management platforms fit in? Would love to hear your thoughts.

Fantastic post! Which names are you using for the application software NRR benchmarking?

Well written! I'm going to be working at Okteto in a few weeks, so I wouldn't be mad if you focused on Environments first :)

How is Snyk not included in this? Who does your research?

Snyk is the OG in DevSecOps. However, I wanted to showcase up-and-coming vendors (Series C and prior). Snyk just raised a Series G and is about to go public. I will be doing an S-1 teardown as soon as they file ;)
