Technology, the great disruptor
Deloitte’s 2019 Tech Trends include:
Technology is already transforming the way people engage with machines, data and each other. If leaders are not exploring the role that voice, computer vision and a growing array of other interfaces will play in their company’s future, they are already late to the game.
Today, CMOs are partnering with CIOs in order to build an arsenal of experience-focused marketing tools that are powered by emerging technology. Their goal is to transform marketing from a customer acquisition-focused activity to one that enables a superb customer experience, grounded in data.
Technologies like 5G, mesh networks, and edge computing are expanding business’ reach to both the far corners of the world — and the smallest spaces in warehouses, retail stores, and other places with utmost precision. Advanced networking is the unsung hero driving development of new products and services and is transforming how work gets done.
As AI technology becomes increasingly standardised, becoming an AI-fuelled organisation will be more than a strategy for success – it could be stakes for survival. As AI drives automation across IT, CIOs and their teams are gearing up to spend more time making informed decisions about how, why and where to use the technology.
The next stage in the evolution of cloud computing is here. In this environment, technical resources can be completely abstracted from the system infrastructure and management tasks are becoming increasingly automated. As a result, IT teams can now concentrate on developing new, value-added capabilities that enhance operational speed and efficiency.
Other trends in the report include: Macro technology forces at work, Beyond the digital frontier: Mapping your future and DevSecOps and the cyber imperative.
