They are designed to deliver <a href="/en/blog/open-outlook-cloud-native-application-development">well-recognized business value</a>, like the ability to rapidly incorporate user feedback for continuous improvement. In short, cloud-native app development is a way to speed up how you build new applications, optimize existing ones, and <a href="/en/topics/integration">connect them all</a>. Its goal is to deliver apps users want at the pace a business needs.</p><p>But what about the "cloud" in cloud-native applications? If an app is "cloud-native," it’s specifically designed to provide a consistent development and automated management experience across private, public, and hybrid clouds. Organizations adopt <a href="/en/topics/cloud-computing">cloud computing</a> to increase the scalability and availability of apps. These benefits are achieved through self-service and on-demand provisioning of resources, as well as automating the application life cycle from development to production.</p><p>But to fully utilize these benefits, a new form of application development is needed.</p><p>Cloud-native development is just that—an approach to building and updating apps quickly, while improving quality and reducing risk. More specifically, it’s a way to build and run responsive, scalable, and fault-tolerant apps anywhere—be it in public, private, or hybrid clouds.</p></div></div></div>  <div class="rh-group--layout" data-rh-content-size=xl data-rh-border=bottom data-rh-layout="stacked" ><div class="rh-group-body" data-rh-layout="min-stacked" ><div class="rh-generic--component" ><div class="media-element file-default media-youtube-video"><iframe src="https://www.redhat.com/en/media/oembed?url=https%3A//www.youtube.com/watch%3Fv%3D7BERknbDWVc&max_width=0&max_height=0&hash=cgmsua3wLUyhJF2rXA9-2es7CWXJDJ6tjDhq2KZsreE" frameborder="0" allowtransparency width="200" height="113" class="media-oembed-content" loading="lazy" title="How would you describe Cloud-native App Dev?"></iframe></div><h3>A quick look at cloud-native apps</h3><p>Cloud-native app development sounds like another IT industry buzzword, but it might just be the breakthrough organizations are looking for to speed up innovation.
