Accelerating Digital Transformation Innovation
VMware, a leading enterprise software company, has announced eight enterprise technology trends to watch in 2020.
▲ VMware announced eight enterprise technology trends for 2020.
The trends predicted by keywords are ▲hybrid applications ▲integrated edge solutions ▲specialized hardware remote support ▲intrinsic security ▲small devices ▲machine learning ▲cloud separation ▲shared service platforms.
Hybrid applications
Recently, hybrid applications that combine cloud-native services and open source technologies are attracting attention. Hybrid applications provide differentiated services based on various microservices, such as machine learning and analytics.
As the use of hybrid applications and the importance of platforms that support data-driven services increase, enterprises are expected to choose from a wider variety of cloud providers than they do today.
Integrated Edge Solutions
Integrated edge solutions that can reduce edge computing costs and support the necessary infrastructure are entering the market in earnest.
This allows businesses to improve business speed and agility by delivering new technologies to remote locations based on software. Furthermore, they can reduce costs by consolidating infrastructure and improving network performance through integrated edge solutions.
This is a single hardware appliance that provides a software-defined wide area network (SD WAN) while supporting the execution of applications.
Special hardware remote support
Currently, companies must build servers to run applications on specialized hardware, such as programmable field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) or graphics processing units (GPUs). However, starting in 2020, technology capable of remotely connecting to specialized hardware is expected to become available.
Combining hyperconverged infrastructure with VMware Bitfusion solutions allows applications to remotely connect to FPGAs or GPUs over Ethernet. This allows businesses to take a modular approach to their IT infrastructure, eliminating the need to maintain hundreds of servers to meet application requirements.
Intrinsic security
As malware continues to evolve, the number of applications and data that enterprises must protect continues to grow. As security policies, including network firewalls, become fundamental components of applications, the need to integrate security into IT infrastructure is also growing.
Enterprises are expected to accelerate the adoption of intrinsic security models, starting with single applications or new projects.
small devices
It's predicted that more businesses will adopt small devices like the Raspberry Pi 4. Small devices with powerful features at an affordable price are also gaining popularity for their flexibility.
When enterprises deploy these devices alongside virtualization and other enterprise technologies to secure and isolate edge and cloud environments, they can create new opportunities for innovation.
machine learning
Machine learning is a technology that requires extensive data science knowledge and sophistication, making it a field that has been difficult for small businesses to access. However, the recent emergence of turnkey machine learning services from cloud providers and open source communities has made it possible for even companies without high levels of expertise to adopt machine learning models.
In 2020, the market role of service providers is expected to become increasingly important in increasing accessibility to machine learning.
Cloud separation
If it is practically difficult to move your data to the public cloud, you can consider moving your data to cloud services.
Recently, cloud services, such as Amazon Relational Database Service, have emerged that operate independently from cloud data centers. The number of such services is expected to increase further in 2020, and ultimately, the location of service operation will be a matter of business requirements and policy.
shared service platform
When companies collaborate with business partners, compatibility of existing equipment and tools often becomes an issue. This can be a barrier to corporate business innovation, increasing the need for a flexible platform that supports the services of various business partners through virtualization software.
A multi-tenant shared services platform at the edge not only expands business partnership opportunities for enterprises, but also creates new revenue streams by renting computing capacity and data access, enabling them to provide differentiated services in the retail and manufacturing sectors.
“We are seeing a strategic shift in how enterprises build and manage applications,” said Chris Wolf, executive vice president and chief technology officer at VMware. “We expect 2020 to see an acceleration of digital transformation innovation as enterprises build more agile, efficient, and secure infrastructures through software-defined technologies.”
