How 21st-Century Enterprises Grow
It's your first briefing from the CIO:
IT is undergoing major changes that affect individuals as well as organizations. Mobile technology advances, cloud computing, and social networks are having a profound impact on the role of IT and IT professionals. In the past, businesses had to rely on their IT departments to make every enhancement to their systems and applications, whereas the current trend toward scripting languages, intuitive interfaces, and cloud-based services enables business users to quickly create their own applications.
Individuals entering the workforce today use the devices at their disposal differently from employees that came before. With over 5 billion cell phone subscriptions and 1 billion PCs in the world, the cell phone is the next digital frontier for companies looking to engage their employees.
Gone are those days when monolithic IT systems were developed and maintained by exclusive communities of IT professionals confined to technology-savvy regions of the world. The challenges of software engineering during the 21st century are quite different and multifold because of factors such as globalization and technology evolution.
