The Top Digital Transformation Trends For 2019

The Top Digital Transformation Trends For 2019

Digital transformation involves both an organizational shift where people, technology, and business meet and technological change. In this article, we outline some of the most important trends in 2019 to help organizations make their business transformations a fact. These tendencies include chatbots, 5G mobile internet networks, and AI developments among others. The message we’d like our readers to take away from this piece is that technology is not equivalent to digital transformation in and of itself. Clients, company culture, and staff lie at the core of every technology investment.

Developers will continue making giant leaps in sentiment analytics and natural language processing throughout 2019. More and more services will become automated as a result. Services like job recruiting and loan processing could become available through bots. Two out of each five large businesses currently apply natural language processing or will do so by the end of 2019. Naturally, this raises the concern of making humans redundant, but no transformation is without its downsides – or ways to overcome such. Employees will need to improve their skills to help provide a satisfying customer experience as a bot can’t perform a human’s job when it comes to processing a more complicated request.

2019 is the year when 5G is going to be everywhere. There is already a wide number of test deployments with companies like Nokia, Qualcomm, Samsung, and Intel. 5G is also available in rural locations thanks to new companies like Mimosa. Major providers like ATT and Verizon will start offering faster and more innovative mobile network services.

Right now, the blockchain is too complicated for ordinary people to wrap their heads around. As a result, not enough people are getting in on the action and benefiting from the vast array of opportunities cryptocurrencies have to offer. However, developments in this sector are set to go beyond that. Giants like IBM continue to put great effort into utilizing the blockchain’s potential for applications beyond cryptocurrency.

Connected clouds – a combination of public, private, and hybrid – are continuing to grow and develop to meet businesses’ ever-changing requirements, be they app deployment, security, or networking.
