SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 28, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Globant (NYSE:
GLOB), a digitally native technology services company, has just
released its 2019 Trends in Technology report. The annual report
dives into emerging technologies and how they will impact the
business landscape in the new year and beyond. This year's edition
examines the future of digital and cognitive transformations in
businesses, in which digital infrastructure including the IoT Grid,
the Artificial Intelligence Engine (AI Engine), Cloud, Intelligent
Automation (IA), Quantum Computing and 5G become more ingrained
across digital businesses.
"The digital landscape is changing at a record pace, and at
Globant, as a digitally native company, we are at the forefront of
new technologies and trends," said Martín Migoya, CEO, Globant.
"There's already a solid foundation of use cases for technologies
like IoT and AI, and this year we're anticipating that we'll see
these solutions really get taken to the next level."
The report explores how the following tech trends will be the
building blocks of digital businesses in 2019:
- IoT Grid: IoT solutions will go beyond just a singular
element or individual task. Now is an opportune time to build or
buy IoT ready platforms with IoT devices as a bundle that will be
easily integrated with existing systems.
- AI Engine: AI engines will drive business across
industries through automated insights derived from complex data
sets, delivered faster than ever before. AI engines will continue
to become more advanced and gradually teach themselves to recognize
external and internal factors that have an impact on the operation
of machines and the consumer environment as a whole.
- Intelligent Automation: Robotic process automation is
embracing Artificial Intelligence allowing it to turn into
"intelligent automation." This means solutions are increasingly
being pre-trained with natural language recognition, and processing
and becoming solutions capable of more complex decision
making.
- Quantum Computing: Quantum computing will play a larger
role in powering machine learning systems and AI platforms to
better improve, understand, and interpret large datasets and
calculations, ensuring faster AI recommendations and outputs.
- 5G: 5G will become a primary way to facilitate the
connectivity and transfer of data seamlessly and quickly for
machine-to-machine communication. Not only will it ensure the speed
of data transfer, but will also provide scaling possibilities in
the mobile network.
- Cloud Technologies: Cloud computing is the way to go for
organizations to digitize their business completely. Companies are
leveraging Cloud technologies to transform their internal IT
departments and build a business ready IT. Cloud Technologies
provide the foundation for delivering successful customer
experiences and business efficiency.
"Organizations should start to consider how these trends will
impact their business," said Guibert Englebienne, CTO, Globant.
"It's all about having the right tech for each unique need. These
trends aren't going anywhere, and it's important for those who are
thinking about next steps to make sure they have the infrastructure
and organizational culture in place to make the solution
successful."
