Technology Adoption Roadmap for Midsize Enterprises 2022-2024
Gartner Report Technology Adoption Roadmap for Midsize Enterprises 2022-2024More than 400 MSE's interviewed (gartner.com)
53 technologies were mapped to adoption stage (pilot, deployed 2022, deploy in 2023), value and risk
Value was determined by looking at the following factors
Increasing cost efficiency
Improving speed and agility
Enabling resilience
Enhancing employee productivity
Deployment risk
Cybersecurity risks
Implementation cost
Talent availability
Vendor supply chain disruption
Geopolitical risks
Key Takeaways
Cybersecurity
Investments prioritized in (M)anaged (D)etection and (R)response - this to deal with the growing threat of digital risks including things like ransomware
(S)ecure (A)ccess (S)ervice (E)dge is gaining traction for moving away from hardware based security solutions to cloud based security services
(Z)ero (T)rust (N)etwork (A)ccess is being evaluated to replace VPNs
Future work environments
Investments are being made in hybrid and remote work environments over collaboration and productivity tools
Deployment of cloud security tools being prioritized to enable more security hybrid and remote work environments
DIstributed cloud systems and cloud storage are also being prioritized
(C)itizen (A)utomation and (D)evelopment (P)latforms are also being investigated to allow business users to leverage low-code services to help speed business decisions
NLP - Natural Language Processing appears to be something that businesses want to adopt but are falling behind on plans to deploy due to some challenges
Accuracy in language translation
Even though NLP has come a LONG way in the past couple years, the human language is still a very challenging problem to solve
Investing in AI and Data Science and Machine Learning to help observe infrastructure across on-prem, cloud and edge computing
Comes with high deployment risks but still very highly adopted
Investments in 5g for larger demand of networking
Investments in API management PaaS
One of the problems here is talent shortages in this area of expertise (azure.microsoft.com)
