Enterprise Technology Predictions 2024
SiliconANGLE , Saturday, January 27th, 2024
Predictions about enterprise tech have never been more uncertain. They become even more challenging when you try to make forecasts that are measurable. Generally, our belief is we should be able to look back a year later and say with some degree of certainty whether the prediction came true - ideally with some quantifiable evidence to back that up.
In this Breaking Analysis and for the third year in a row, we collaborate with Erik Bradley of Enterprise Technology Research and to share our annual enterprise technology predictions.
Since we started this tradition, public relations folks have kindly provided their clients' perspectives on the trends to watch in the coming year. The graphic above shows the change in the lead categorical topics from these outreaches relative to last year.
It's no surprise to see a huge jump in artificial intelligence predictions, which are partially understated because virtually all these categories included some AI content. Cybersecurity is down but still prominent followed by cloud, data center and data/analytics. Then a smattering of DevOps, digital, software as a service and some other tidbits.
