In 2014, the Gartner seminar was held in Orlando. Experts successively published various topics. At the end of the seminar, the ten strategic technology trends of information technology in 2015 were also proposed. Including IOT, 3D printing, analysis technology, intelligent machines, cloud/client architecture, and network scale it. Gartner symposium/itxpo Technology Summit is being held in Orlando. As usual, their IT experts have analyzed the development trends of information technology in the next year, strategic technological trends have long been defined as an element that has an important influence on the Organization. Let's take a look at the general content of these trends.
1. ubiquitous Computer Information Processing Technology
In view of the continuous progress in Smartphone technology, Gartner believes that in different environments, it emphasizes making changes based on the increasing demand of mobile users, rather than focusing only on individual devices. Gartner assumes that smartphones and wearable devices are an indispensable part of computer information processing technology and can connect them to workplaces and public places to expand the user base involved. This improves the user experience design that is crucial to the development of integrated technologies for enterprises.
2. Iot will develop in a higher direction
Iot will continue to expand. Driven by the user-oriented computer information technology, the influence of Iot cannot be ignored. Gartner's assumption is that IOT will be replicated by enterprises and operating environments in the future, because it may become the core part of digital business products and digital programs. Embedded technology will create more in-depth contact points for users in various fields. More importantly, this will create a stronger foundation for the digital industry.
3. 3D printing technology
The cost of 3D printing will decrease in the next three years. Its influence is to accelerate the rapid growth of the low-cost machine market. How can machines used for commercial purposes speed up this process. Gartner stressed that, in fact, the biggest beneficiaries of this growth are enterprises, biomedical engineering and consumer applications, the growth in these fields can prove that 3D printing is a valuable, reliable, and cost-effective production method, as long as the design accuracy is improved, the rational prototype and the refined production process are improved.
4. Advanced and intangible analysis will be everywhere
Analysis will remain at the forefront of the times as usual, because the development trend of IOT and embedded devices is the source of efficient analysis. Internal and external organizations will continue to generate large volumes of structured and unstructured data. Gartner pointed out that every app requires an analytical app to assist in its operation. Analysis also includes a wide range of questions and answers, and these questions and answers are much more important than big data.
5. context-aware recommender systems)
The ubiquitous embedded smart technology, coupled with the ubiquitous analysis technology, will jointly promote the long-term development of systems that perceive the surrounding environment and can respond accordingly. The environment alert security product is an early application of this new feature, but other products will also appear. By understanding users' requests, applications can not only adjust their security responses, but also transmit information to users, greatly simplifying the world of increasingly complex computing.
6. smart machines
Integrating the analysis of the environment understanding technology provides preconditions for the arrival of the smart machine world. On this basis, the combination of advanced algorithms can encourage the system to understand their environment, autonomous learning and autonomous action. Prototype autonomous vehicles, Advanced robots, virtual personal assistants and intelligent consultants already exist, and will rapidly develop into a new era of machine workers. The intelligent machine era will be the most disruptive innovation in the IT history.
7. Cloud/client architecture
The integration of cloud computing and mobile computing technology will continue to promote the development of applications that can be delivered to the central coordination of any device. Cloud computing is a new form of elastic and scalable self-service computing. Both internal and external applications will be built on this new form. Although network and bandwidth costs may be favored, smart and storage applications, coordination and management of effective use of client devices will be built in the cloud.
In the short term, the focus of the cloud/client is to synchronize the status and content of applications across multiple devices. After a period of time, applications will evolve to support the simultaneous use of multiple devices. In the future, gaming and enterprise applications will all use multiple screens to provide a better experience with wearable products and other devices.
8. Software-defined architecture and Applications
All Agile programming from application to infrastructure is essential for enterprises to provide the flexibility needed for Digital business work. Software-defined networks, storage, data centers, and security are increasingly improved. Cloud services call configurations through application programming interfaces (APIS), and applications have rich API programming methods to access their functions and content.
In order to cope with the rapidly changing needs of the Digital business, it is necessary for computing to get rid of static to dynamic models. Rules, patterns, and code can dynamically assemble and configure all the elements required by the network and application through the application.
9. network scale it
Network scale it is a world-class computing model provided by large cloud service providers for enterprise IT environments. More and more enterprises are starting to think about, act and build similar network giants such as Amazon, Google, and Facebook applications and infrastructure architecture.
Network scale it does not happen immediately, but over time it will become the mainstream as a commercial hardware platform with new models, cloud optimization, and software definitions. The first step in the future of it with network scale is to combine development and operation (devops) with many enterprises to drive the rapid and sustainable development of applications and services in a coordinated manner.
10. Risk-based security and self-protection
All the roads to the digital future must be guided by security. However, in the digital business world, security cannot be an obstacle to stopping all progress. More and more enterprises will realize that it is impossible to provide 100% of the security environment. Once recognized, enterprises can begin to seek more complex risk assessment and mitigation measures.
