In the modern world, the importance of technology cannot be understated. It is the fastest changing and fastest growing sector in the world, by far. In fact, you could call it the new oil industry, as the profits are high as well. In order to keep up with such a fast-paced world, you need to keep an eye on all of the technology trends. In this article, we hope to introduce you to just some of these.
Artificial Intelligence
This is one that, while the idea has been around for a while, has only really started to make headway recently. However, it is still quite a ways until we see real life conscious robots. This means that there is still plenty of space for growth!
Many companies are pouring money into this sector, hoping to keep ahead of their competitors. Amongst the most these are Amazon, with Alexa, and Google, with DeepMind. Nvidia and Tencent are some of the lesser known ones.
The cloud
The cloud is a buzzword that has been around for a while now. Everyone knows this technological trend. However, cloud computing is one that is relatively newer. Basically, it means moving absolutely to the cloud. Servers would sort out data management and processing. Hardware and local servers become far less important. It is taking the cloud to its extreme.
Here are some of the companies to keep an eye out for: Red Hat, Oracle, and Dropbox.
The internet of things
This one sounds a bit vague, admittedly. However, what it really is is far more exciting. It is the interconnection between all sorts of objects. Devices (digital and mechanical), content, services would all be brought into one large network. You would be able to reach anything you want even more easily than you currently can.
Some of the companies investing in this are Magneto IT Solutions and Verizon.
Next time, we will introduce you to even more of these technology trends.
