Tech Trends for 2015 (Globally)
Innovation and technology go hand-in-hand when it comes to delivering solutions and prospective technologies for business leaders to strategize and provide rational inputs to align their business with future trends. The catch comes, where the onus is to decide which trend will be a trail-blazer and those which won’t nearly classify as a bankable technology for the near future. The opportunities become huge when one examines the rate of adoption these new technologies possess. In the minds of the consumer, any and all technological evolutions are welcome, if they are either a disruptive technology which posses the promise of changing business models or if they are enablers. Enablers are technology in which CIOs have invested effort and money. They represent new developments and potential use cases, which already come from an established business model.
Convergence continues to stand out as the tech-trend, which shines with the promise of changing and reshaping the future, the physical and digital worlds are always converging and together form the basis of a future where digital immigrants will find it easier to collaborate with digital natives.
Product advertising becomes the mainstay of digital giants using service oriented architecture (SOA) and API’s are here to stay with more and more developers gearing for a major overhaul in the way ad-optimization companies service their stakeholders. We are in for a change in the way advertising revenues drive businesses both big and small.
Data limitations will progressively be encountered and faster, cheaper and more user friendly methods will turn even the run-of-the-mill populace into an advanced user, having more and more information in hand to make sense of the environment and respond in real-time.
Sensors and wearable chips are making big waves in user-wearable technology and it’s only natural to expect devices which are more attuned to human senses whilst keeping a view of augmenting user experience and interaction.
Cloud computing is another major interface, which augments businesses, to offset their data hurdle and arrive at short ‘turn-around-times’ with minimum expense. Mobile strategies and IT strategies are aligned in concordantly because of the same architecture they employ to access, enhance and deliver cloud facilitates to end users.
Although all the above tech trends, show a promising future and don’t really disrupt the ecosystem, that is until we arrive at the topic of “User-Centricity”. User centricity is still a nascent topic which will prove its importance in coming years. It basically talks of the growing capabilities of user, which in an evolving ecosystem are also being equipped to counter, services of the hapless middle-man and are directly able to access functionalities which before were out of their reach. Previously, usage of such services were directly defined by capability of the user, which has now been eroded by the growing easiness of adopting new technologies due to the user-friendliness of any platform, which the developers itself are working on to enhance user experience.
It remains to be seen what more trends come into light in near future, albeit by the look of things so far, trends in the future have a very promising and interesting outlook.
