- David Cearley, vice president and Gartner fellow.
“Organisations should start exploratory projects to look at promised candidate technology and kick off a search for combinations of information sources, including social sites and unstructured data that may be mined for insights,”
- Carl Claunch, vice president and distinguished analyst at Gartner.
I'm going to mention just a few sentence extracted from the article, so please go to [Full Article] and read it in detail.
1. Media Tablets and Beyond.
No single platform, form factor or technology will dominate and companies should expect to manage a diverse environment with two to four intelligent clients through 2015.
2. Mobile-Centric Applications and Interfaces.
Building application user interfaces that span a variety of device types, potentially from many vendors, requires an understanding of fragmented building blocks and an adaptable programming structure that assembles them into optimised content for each device.
3. Contextual and Social User Experience.
A contextually aware system anticipates the user’s needs and proactively serves up the most appropriate and customised content, product or service.
4. Internet of Things.
The Internet of Things (IoT) is a concept that describes how the Internet will expand as sensors and intelligence are added to physical items such as consumer devices or physical assets and these objects are connected to the Internet.
5. App Stores and Marketplaces.
Gartner forecasts that by 2014, there will be more than 70 billion mobile application downloads from app stores every year. This will grow from a consumer-only phenomena to an enterprise focus.
6. Next-Generation Analytics.
In 2011 and 2012, analytics will increasingly focus on decisions and collaboration. The new step is to provide simulation, prediction, optimisation and other analytics, not simply information, to empower even more decision flexibility at the time and place of every business process action.
7. Big Data.
The size, complexity of formats and speed of delivery exceeds the capabilities of traditional data management technologies; it requires the use of new or exotic technologies simply to manage the volume alone.
8. In-Memory Computing.
Running existing applications in-memory or refactoring these applications to exploit in-memory approaches can result in improved transactional application performance and scalability, lower latency (less than one microsecond) application messaging, dramatically faster batch execution and faster response time in analytical applications.
9. Extreme Low-Energy Servers.
The adoption of low-energy servers ? the radical new systems being proposed, announced and marketed by mostly new entrants to the server business ?will take the buyer on a trip backward in time.
10. Cloud Computing.
While the market remains in its early stages in 2011 and 2012, it will see the full range of large enterprise providers fully engaged in delivering a range of offerings to build cloud environments and deliver cloud services.
