Top 10 Key Information Technology Trends For 2012
At the Gartner Symposium IT / Expo, David Cappuccio, managing vice president and head of research for the Infrastructure team with Gartner, said that the Top 10 trends show how the changes that many of them in the past outside the traditional scope of IT, but they will all affect how she does her job in the future.
Top 10 trends and their consequences, including briefly:
1 The development of virtualization: virtualization will ultimately Cappuccio says more companies to treat it as a business. The danger in the coming years will be in accordance with a specific vendor's vision, but it is unlikely that a supplier's view will prevail. Users should check their own vision of architecture, and up against it with a constantly updated strategic plan.
2 Big Data analytics and patterns: unstructured data will grow about 80% over the next five years, creating a major IT challenge. Technologies such as in-line deduplication, automated tiering of data for the most efficient use of patterns per kilowatt to get, and flash or solid state drives for the higher-end performance optimization will increase in importance in coming years, Cappuccio said. Analytics and other systems to monitor for recurring data patterns that can develop into money making applications will also be important.
Third Energy efficiency and control: The power issues higher up the corporate food chain, Cappuccio said. New tools that can begin to implement analytical tools to use the energy to look at different levels. With the increased focus on energy, it is clear that many systems are significantly underutilized. At low occupancy, they use a large percentage of their total energy wells. A typical x86 server that is on but not in use, will attract up to 65% of the nominal power, for example. IT organizations need a clear view of what IT resources and what pressure there is potential for significant waste of energy.
4th Context-aware apps: The big question here is how little too smart to take advantage of smart phones to do. Gartner said earlier context-based computing will go beyond business intelligence applications and truly unified communications environment as possible by bringing together selected data from social networks and mobile devices.
5th Staff retention and retraining: Here the idea is to develop a plan to get people excited about their work enough to continue to receive. And we need from the 2011 average of 10,000 baby boomers will be eligible to return every day for the next 19 years, Cappuccio said. Loyalty to a company is not a quality new employees.
6th Social networking: affordable and accessible technology to individuals and communities come together in a new way - with a collective voice - to make statements about our organization, products / services we provide and how we deliver them, Cappuccio said. The collective consists of individuals, groups, communities, gangs, markets and companies towards society and the private sector to shape. The collective is not new, but the technology has the more powerful and capable of rapid changes happening Cappuccio said. The collective has only just begun to affect operations and strategy, but most organizations do not have a plan for it and embrace it. Ignoring social networking is not an option, Cappuccio said.
7th Consumerization: The key trend here is that new types of applications will be developed to solve the mobile users, but they will not replace desktop applications. Yet should a safe, well-defined strategy to be implemented to take advantage of this development, Cappuccio said.
8th Measured per square meter: Virtualization is one of the most critical components are used to vertically scale data centers and densities increase. If wisely used, the average performance of the server move from the current paltry 7% to 12% on average 40% to 50%, making big gains in the floor space and energy savings. Two issues to be considered as the future number of cores per server - four-and eight-core systems are becoming more and more frequent, and 16 cores will be common within two years - and the overall data center energy trends. It will also have things like performance / license address, Cappuccio said
9th Cloud computing: While cost is a potential benefit for small businesses, the biggest benefits of cloud computing, built-in elasticity and scalability. Some IT functions industrialize and more inappropriate, such as e-mail, there are more possibilities for larger organizations can take advantage of cloud computing, says Cappuccio.
10th Fabrics: Gartner defines this infrastructure convergence: The vertical integration of server to storage and network systems and components with element-level management software foundation for common data center resources optimize efficiency and dynamic places. Systems argued previously Cisco and HP network management to reconcile, but has not yet been reached.
