Future of IOT 2019
6 trends in IT infrastructure: forecast for 2019
The fourth quarter of the year is the time to sum up and make plans for the future. A year ago, in 2017, we published forecasts on the topic of what technologies will develop during the year. Many assumptions were justified, and the last months were really remembered as being under the sign of security and virtualization.
Today, we again gathered a list of technologies that, according to industry experts, will be crucial for the industry next year.
1. Spending on servers, switches and disks grow
Here without surprises. Proceeds of iron producers were expected to grow throughout the year. So this fact is difficult to call a fresh trend. However, we propose to look at the situation more closely.
According to the international research company IDC, in the second quarter of 2017 revenue from sales of components of the cloud infrastructure grew by 25.8% year on year and reached $ 12.3 billion. And the share of revenues from the infrastructure for public clouds now accounts for 33.5% of the market, but more on that later.
IDC declares about expansion of sales of server, network equipment, equipment for storage. As for 2018, on the eve of the technological conference Interop ITX was helda survey of executives from the IT world about future investments. 24% of respondents said that their organizations really plan to increase spending on IT infrastructure by more than 10% next year. Another 21% is going to meet 5-10%.
Judging by the results of the survey, the financing of the enterprise will be increased for the following reasons:
Growth in data volume - 21% of respondents said they will invest in storage equipment in the next 12 months;
Alarming news about vulnerabilities in security systems - 59% of respondents named network security one of three priorities;
Insufficient network capacity - 19% of respondents are seriously going to spend money on network equipment;
A wireless future - almost half of respondents will invest in wireless technologies.
2. The volume of data grows, and carriers decrease in size
This topic we have already touched on in the previous paragraph. But since this is an important point in planning, we will dwell on it in more detail. About the growth in the volume of data is actively spoken for several years - in 2015, Cisco predicted that the total amount of data stored in data centers in 2017 will be 370 EB. According to IDC, the amount of data in the world from 2013 to 2020 will increase by 10 times (to 44 trillion gigabytes). It's no surprise that companies are experiencing, where to store all these arrays in the end?
The manufacturer of equipment Western Digital (WD) not so long ago madea very important statement about the future of storage: by 2020 70% of all data will be placed on HDD, which the company is now actively developing. In WD, we decided to follow the path of increasing the capacity of disks without increasing the size of the media. Relying on the technology of microwave magnetic recording (MAMR), the company is going to create HDDs up to 40 TB. In WD they say that the first engineering samples of super-large hard drives will be available to corporate customers in 2019.
IBM also puts on flash memory. The corporation in October introducedseveral changes in their solutions and software modules. They are aimed at reducing costs and accelerating the deployment of private clouds. The changes have affected the IBM FlashSystem 900 system. Now it also cares about storing more data costing the user less money.
3. The speed of Internet connections is increasing
In 2018, the growth of the IoT-industry is also expected. The company Intel, developing the infrastructure of "smart" cities, predict good financial performance against the background of this trend. IoT relies on data and communication with them, so cloud computing and new communication standards will attract even more attention next year.
Qualcomm and Verizon are triumphantly moving to a fast-paced future. The processor manufacturer in October successfully completed the first 5G connection using its chipset for mobile platforms. In the near future, we should expect an increase in the speed of data exchange between the devices of the Internet of things. By the way, according to Gartner, their number will reach 20 billion by 2020.
In Ciscosay that video will account for 80% of all Internet traffic by 2021, up from 67% in 2016. The answer to this trend will be the development of next-generation mobile networks capable of processing more data in a shorter time. And the changes are likely to begin as early as 2018. As for Russia, here in the next 12 months will create a development center under the 5G-network. The networks themselves will unfold in the country fragmentarily starting from industrial facilities.
At the same time, Nokia is teaming up with Amazon Web Services to conduct joint developments in the field of IoT and 5G. The partnership arose from the need for closer integration between the network and the IT infrastructure. This speaks of the growing role of cloud computing in the context of the Internet of things.
4. The development of artificial intelligence continues
Somehow we already had to argue that the clouds actively take on the service of artificial intelligence and machine learning. 2018, most likely, will demonstrate a new level of this trend, because almost all technological giants are working in this direction.
Last year, IBM launched a cloud platform based on AI. Microsoft and Amazon did not stay aloof. Gartner believes that the creation of systems that are learning, adapting and preparing to act autonomously, will be the main "battlefield" between technology providers until 2020.
At the same time artificial intelligence is predictedStrong role in the fight against cyber threats, coming, oddly enough, from the same artificial intelligence. As they wrote in Harvard Business Review: "The main hope for protection against attacks organized with the help of AI is AI."
5. The hyperconvertible infrastructure market is developing
Jesse St. Laurent of HPE recently presented his thoughts on how the industry will cope with the growth of information. He came to the conclusion that the key to solving the problem are technologies that rationally use and process data. To realize this is capable of hyperconvergent infrastructure, about advantages of which we told in one of our materials .
This trend was often highlighted before, but in 2017 set a good start for the future development: the market began to be filled with new players, and sales of hyperconvergent systems grew by 64.7% in the first quarter of the year.
6. The popularity of cloud services is growing
Judging by the survey from the first paragraph, XaaS are at the peak and remain an important trend. Only 10% of respondents did not see value in cloud services for themselves. The rest choose them as a viable alternative to impressive investments in their own equipment.
2018 is very important for technology. According to IDC forecasts, by the end of its 40% of IT costs for both hardware and software and services will be concentrated around the clouds.
At the conference Cloud Services Russia IDC in Russia and the CIS Dmitry Gavrilov said that in 2017, the Russian cloud services market will reach 364 million dollars.
In 2017, we witnessed how many enterprises migrated to the cloud. Trendand startups, who acquire greater flexibility for accomplishing "strategic maneuvers", did not pass . The experience of our clients demonstrates how IaaS allows you to effectively manage costs, for example, in the case of an electronic freight platform or the contact center City-call.
A few more trends on the cloud market, which will continue their development in the next year, we noted at the conference "Clouds 2017: main trends" - they concern the expansion of providers' portfolios with new, service services and standard solutions and the evolution of the SLA.
An important sub-trend, which helps the main trend, is the expansion of the market of tools for the transition of enterprises to the clouds. Therefore, we can expect that 2018 will open the way to cloud technologies for a record number of organizations.
