Trends 2015 for IT

If you do not know where to go, any direction will do. But did you know that this maxim also serves to IT?

The beginning of a new year is the ideal time to look in the mirror, trace which way to go and try to be more assertive than in the previous year. In short, be more creative than the previous year, and with it we get better results and higher profits.

For this to work, the first action to take is to research market trends and obviously cross this information with a good benchmarking of its product or service. Tip: Gartner site can help or even a good research in our friend Google.

A trend that is sure to 2015 is the Cloud (Cloud), ie SaaS (Software as a Service) and PaaS (Platform as a Service), where the IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service) had a good decelerated in recent times. In simple terms, is the software and / or platforms provided by a high performance environment.

When we talk about Cloud, where is does not matter, provided that there is elasticity and scalability of the environment so that we can adapt the need quickly. In financial matters, the Cloud worth its salt should be on pay model for use, that is, you pay for what you use and if there is a need for a short period of greater elasticity, the price will be charged for additional use at the time.

Is reality comes very against the need for full time connectivity that only a high-availability environment can offer. This connectivity encourages, for example, coworkings where a table with internet access allows you to connect their equipment and work with all of your online order information. Not to mention that the offices already have their environments without any infrastructure locally IT, as it focuses on increased investment as well as the day to day administration.

And if it comes to availability and connection, the growth of enterprise applications for mobile devices is inevitable, that is, be able to access everything you would want for your tablet or smartphone. Today we have smartphones increasingly powerful and increasingly with computer guy, where often even forget that his function in essence is to make and receive calls, as all the computing functions of a mobile phone today are already intrinsic.

Given these trends, imagine your company and align expectations which could generate from the above technologies and what advantage could take even more of everything that already exists.

And more. As an IT leader, thought must focus more on business continuity and in his innovation in high availability delivered, as if I’m always connected, I can give a faster response and have access at any time.

Everything looks perfect, not even be used in moderation. Do not forget that, because of all this ease of storage and access, your device can last more than 12, 15 hours. Remember how many times you said “It’s just an email,” “Let me see this worksheet” or “Does the application downloaded to the system?”.

The technology frees and traps at the same time, but it is still a strong tool to be used in 2015 with a focus on less-premises (unless you are the very company that provides the infrastructure), more scalability, elasticity, mobility , freedom and information in real time. After all, who has the fastest information makes the decision faster and also this time can be the difference between a business successfully closed or not.

If this technology is not your core, we leave for those who have the knowledge to do so. And we, IT, spend our energy on our competence. How about thinking in 2015 in innovation goals by making a list of what actions have been effectively innovation and which were business maintenance?

And leader, create your goals by sharing with your team. That way, you will see how innovative they can be and, even more, will be part of innovation, after all, the idea is to be more innovative in 2015 that in 2014, right?

Good Luck! Now it’s time to leave the mirror and just look ahead carefully and seeking innovative destination.
