most significant technology driven shifts

Patrick sends in Gartner's view of the future:

"Gartner said one of the most significant shifts caused by IT in the near-term is the reality of offshore or global sourcing. Increasingly, companies will aggressively leverage technology investments and increased connectivity to access lower-cost, high quality labour. "
"Sensor networks - Will provide new ways to measure and
monitor physical environments in minute detail - with almost no human
efforts. Everything will be connected, and its location known. We will
use sensor networks to increase efficiency, reduce costs and have
better insights into the immediate future of our businesses. Technology
advances will give RFID devices the path to evolve into sensors.

Always on technologies - Including PDAs, smart phones, SPOT
watches, Bluetooth headsets, MP3 players, coupled with wireless
communications technologies.


Data storage and access - Storage will improve so rapidly that
the cost of keeping everything will be cheaper than the cost of
deciding what to keep. This will result in a phenomenon called 'perfect
recall' - digital trails that capture people's every move and which can
be reclaimed when needed.


Real-Time Infrastructure - Will use sensor network management
technology and event driven architecture to build tera-architectures
capable of capturing, storing and analysing trillions of transactions.
This is how we will understand and use the data from connected devices.
