Artificial Intelligence (AI)
• Intensive development of AI in the past few years
• Huge interest of companies in technology and its
marsh to the commercial use
• Main focus on its implementation to keep the business
processes up to date
• Deep learning improvement
• AI already merged with lots of other emerging
technologies (automotive, IoT etc.)
Internet of Things (IoT)
• Top-of-mind technology over the last few years
• The mass adoption of IoT platforms: Many companies
are already leveraging IoT technology and many
others are ramping up their efforts.
• The industrial IoT is the biggest business opportunity.
• Major security challenges in IoT solutions
Cyber Security
• Up to 5,000 average number of security alerts
• SMBs as the main focus of attacks becoming a launch
pad for bigger campaigns
• The most popular attacks are target attacks against
person, advanced malware the world hasn’t seen
before, ransomware.
• Cloud as an option to strengthen security efficiency
• New technologies as a new way to embrace cyber
technology (e.g. Machine Learning as security help)
• Security outsourcing as a better option for SMBs
Big Data / Data Science
• Strong connection with other emerging
technologies (e.g. AI and ML)
• Data warehouse optimization remains the top
use case for big data.
• Prevailing trend among enterprises is to move to
cloud-based analytics in the nearest time.
• Data privacy and security concerns
Mobile Apps Development
• Demand for App Dev at all times is high (Mobile-first)
• Excessive development time
• Backlogs remain stubbornly high
• Slow returns from Agile and DevOps investments
• Customer centricity is on the rise.
• Low-code is becoming mainstream.
Augmented Reality (AR) / Virtual Reality (VR)
59%
• Drones of organizations
• Appliances are still
• Agents preparing to
build their AI
strategies.
Augmented Analytics
• Today, Bid Data definition transformed into the
Enormous Data, and now we are talking about receiving
data flows from anywhere – connected sensors that
measure nearly everything.
• Data scientists face not only the problem of data
collection and storage, but have to solve the challenge of
its analysis.
• Augmented analytics becomes a new wave of data
processing based on data science and machine learning
platforms.
AI-Driven Development
• This trend covers embedding of artificial
intelligence into different applications and
creation of AI-powered tools for such directions:
• AI-powered tools targeting professional
developer community (AI Platforms and
Services)
• AI-powered tools created to assist
professional developers and automate tasks
related to the development of AI-enhanced
solutions
• AI-powered tools targeting business domain
expertise (application development stack).
Digital Twins
• Digital twins became a new format of the well- known
computer design representations of real world elements,
but now it brings a new sense of digitalization:
• Reflect the models focused on specific business
outcomes support
• Show the real world in real time for monitoring and
control
• Allows to check the application of Big Data
Analytics and AI
• Create the environment for “What-if” scenarios.
Empowered Edge
• Edge computing allows to process the data in real-time
without loosing the time on sending it to process the
data in the cloud. The empowered edge will be of use in
such areas as:
• Enterprises, where the remote data monitoring is
vital for faults monitoring.
• Industries, where edge data processing allows
gather comprehensive information on processes
for further improvements.
• Automated devices for real-time data processing
and transmitting it to other devices.
Immersive Experience
• Current experience based on artificial intelligence,
augmented, mixed and virtual reality will result in a new
era of customer relationship management:
• EmoBots – chatbots and intelligent assistants able
to recognize and react to human emotions.
• New level of realism (AR/VR, IoT and mobile
combination)
• Hyper-personalization (AI, predictive analytics, IoT
etc.)
• Instant gratification
Blockchain
• Even still being immature, blockchain is expected to
embrace all industries, and even more:
• The mature ecosystem and national
cryptocurrencies will appear.
• Working business models will be created.
• Blockchain already started integration with IoT and
it will be strengthened further.
• New Blockchain regulations will be implemented.
• All decentralized services will be secured.
Smart Spaces
• Smart spaces are the physical or digital environments or
ecosystems where humans can interact with technology-
enabled systems. Smart spaces provide developers with
such vital features:
• Openness
• Connectedness
• Coordination
• Intelligence
• Scope
Digital Ethics and Privacy
• Due to constant technology development, governments
started creating new regulations related to data
protection. The main regulation themes became digital
ethics, namely:
• Security
• Interaction
• Cybercrime
• Governance
• Privacy
• Social • Free will
• Society and economy
Quantum Computing
• It is expected that in 5 years quantum computing will
become a mainstream and ease such processes as:
• Weather and climate modeling
• Personalized medicine predictions
• Space exploration
• Fundamental sciences boost
• Machine learning
• Encryption
• Real-time language translation
