We live in a very closely interconnected world. This is a world where consumers manage their daily lives in real time, deftly managing various applications with precision and maneuverability: they make up the lunch menu, decorate rooms in 3D, select, book and rate the nanny ratings for the child, retouch photos and so on.

Like other technological innovations in the field of consumption, the trend of real-time management and client-orientation has spread to business. In an effort to increase efficiency and flexibility of work, large companies in particular are trying to find ways to update their inherited systems in the shortest time and with minimal costs. At the same time, they compete with those market participants who have already implemented such updates into the business structure.

So, we know that businessmen intend to implement a number of transformations, at the center of which will be the needs of the client. And advanced technologies make it quite feasible - for example, cloud technologies, artificial intelligence, machine learning, innovations in the field of data storage. The combination of these two factors - the transformation trend and technological potential - is a turning point in the development of the market, significantly changing the business approach to technology. At the heart of these processes are data centers and virtualization.

In the not too distant future, we will see that an increasing number of companies are introducing hardware and software that work independently of each other for maximum flexibility. The future of the business is, of course, behind the software - with its capabilities, resources, strategic approach and customer wishes as the main engines of improvements. In the future, this will lead to the fact that high technologies will be integrated into fairly simple solutions - "building blocks" - allowing you to get the most from the infrastructure of data centers and high performance from computing environments.

Another notable change is the growing virtualization of storage, networking and data processing, which greatly expands the use of software and, accordingly, increases their flexibility and reduces business costs.

The trend towards a programmatic approach to technological development is an incentive for the digitization and dissemination of digital technologies. This allows companies to become more flexible, customize their activities in real time, scale as needed and provide continuous customer service without downtime in an ever-changing environment.
