Tech Trends 2016
In my role technology distribution can it’s
important to love five years out to see what industry is headed in the long
term but much of my attention is focused on the near future identifying the
technology and trends that are ready to be put to use a tablet over the next 12
months. With that in mind her for the top IT trends that I believe a poised to
gain real traction in 2016.
My
number for trend is the software-defined data center. From the beginning data
centers will be made up of silos of servers storage and networking hard way but
that model is redundant and expensive and it makes it difficult to allocate resources
quickly. That’s a problem for IT teams that are feeling pressure to improve
responsiveness and decrease maintenance costs. In a software-defined data
center all the essential elements of a computing platform a pool together
virtualized and managed to a common set of application programming interfaces.
With all of the data centers resources pulled together it’s easier and faster
to monitor and reallocate compute storage network in and even security
resources according to the needs of the business.
Production-ready software-defined data center
offerings and now available from established vendors vendors as well as from
new cameras and I tea shops are looking for safe and proven ways to movie to a
software-defined-environment. That delivers the stability and the agility that
their businesses require.
My
number three top trend is what I call a mobile first approach until now most
mobility initiatives will focus on providing mobile devices with the same
access and security that we find on desktop and laptop PCs. The mobile versus
approach turns out world view on its head.
It’s not about matching the PC experience and
a small device anymore. It’s about getting the most of the unique advantages
that mobile platforms have to offer. Such as the ability to easily capture pictures
documents and also knowing the precise location of device as mobile devices get
more convenient security with a broader adoption of biometrics.
I
expect more businesses will be thinking mobile-first in 2016 for both customers
and employees. My second top IT- tried 4 2016 is machine learning. I see
machine learning is a logical evolution of the exponential growth of data and
data analytics. That we’ve been seen over the last few year big data and data
analytics today are mostly concerned with mine in large quantities of data to
provide insights that leaders can use to make informed decisions with speed.
However those results of focus on helping
business leaders interpret past activity. A machine learning on the other hand
is about using the same data sets to predict future behavior. Today Google,
Facebook and Amazon or relying on machine learning to deliver content ads and
products that use your past activity to predict what you’ll be interested in
next IBM’s Watson initiative extends its significant machine learning
capabilities to IBM customers.
A machine learning is also at the heart of
Google’s efforts to develop self-driving vehicles. As the engineers at Google
will tell you it’s easier to drive a car when you can predict what’s around the
corner rather than having to focus on the road behind you and running the businesses
is no different. That’s why I believe machine learning will be one of this
year’s top trends to gain traction as organizations like to predict the future
as well as they can analyze the past.
My top IT trends for 2016 is the internet of
things specifically the industrial Internet of things. One study from the mckinsey
global institute estimates that IOT will deliver up to 11 trillion dollars of
global economic impact on an annual basis just 10 years from now and a
significant proportion of that was going to be made up the industrial IOT.
For example, one of a minute industrial
equipment customers has begun in bed in connected sensors into the field based
equipment. This gives our customers the ability to let maintenance teams know
when a component is about to break down but before it actually happens. This
happens this simple warning helps avoid costly downtime and emergency repairs.
It also ensures that the service technicians have exactly the right parts they
need when than arrive on site.
2016 will be the year the IOT hits critical
mass. The opportunity is simply too large for that but the building blocks for
the ecosystem and now in place. Making it easier faster and less expensive to
prototype and roll out real world IOT solutions. That’s why it’s my number-one
trend for 2016. To find out how these and other top technology trends are being
applied inside the enterprise in the year to come. Stay tuned to this text and series
