Top Technology Trends of 2016
IT no longer supports the business; it is the business. As a result, IT is learning to think
in business terms and ask quesEons such as, "How will we dierenEate?" and "How will
we grow our top line and bo[om line?
But as 2016 approaches, the focus is shi^ing toward more specic decisions guided by
relevant data in criEcal contexts. Bringing in new sources of data to complete the
analy;cal picture the right sources for the right analysis will allow IT-driven
businesses to improve the decisions, at scale, that deliver the most produc;vity, while
miEgaEng risk to the organizaEon.
cloud pla?orms really begin to typify the development style. IT is going to need to
look more like cloudsproduce private cloud for the enterprise that has most of the
same proper;es as the public cloud.
