CompTIA’s new Trends in Cloud Computing study shows that while well over 90 percent of companies still claim to use some form of cloud computing, the pace of progress appears to have slowed. In some cases, it even appears to have taken a step backwards. What accounts for this phenomenon? Why does it seem like attitudes towards cloud have cooled, even though cloud continues to be a primary factor in IT growth? Download this study today and learn more about the state of the cloud.
2015 North Bridge Future of Cloud Computing Study, with Wikibon |Broadest exploration of cloud trends, cloud migration & evolution of the cloud computing sector. Survey participation was the largest to date and included responses from 38 countries. 50 collaborators supported the 5th Annual Future of Cloud Computing study, which reveals that cloud has become an accepted and integral technology. Furthermore, the study shows that despite deployment gaps among clouds, we should expect a future powered by hybrid cloud technologies. The question of whether companies are using the cloud has morphed to how deeply cloud adoption is integrated within the business. From the bottom to the top, all products and services will in some way be powered by the cloud making the promise of goods and services that have the potential to be better tomorrow than today. IT departments have reclaimed the reins on driving company technology strategy and cloud adoption as roles, skills and processes have shifted. Importantly, We’re also seeing the emergence of the cloud as the only way businesses can truly get more out of their data including analyzing and executing on it real-time. On the investment front, 2015 could tip the scale from private to public capital for SaaS companies.
North Bridge and Wikibon, announced the results of its sixth annual Future of Cloud Computing Survey, which analyzes trends in cloud computing, adoption, use and challenges on a yearly basis. The study provides the broadest and deepest exploration of cloud in the industry with 53 leading cloud companies participating as collaborators. This year’s survey received 1,351 responses, a record-breaking number, representing a 60/40 balance of user/vendor perspectives spanning senior executives to practitioners across all industry sectors such as Technology, F.I.R.E., Government, Healthcare, Manufacturing, Media, Professional Services and Transportation.
According to Wikibon’s July 2016 report based on market conditions and recent public cloud revenue results of Amazon, Microsoft, Oracle, SAP, and IBM; public cloud spending is expected to accelerate rapidly, growing from $75B in 2015 to $522B by 2026 at a compound annual growth rate of 19%. Within each public cloud segment continued rapid growth rates are also expected during this period: SaaS (19% CAGR), PaaS (33% CAGR), and IaaS (18% CAGR). Wikibon estimates that by 2026, cloud will account for nearly 50% of spending related to enterprise hardware, software, and outsourcing services.
Cloud Strategy
Based on our survey, while slightly less than 50% of all companies either have a cloud first or cloud only strategy; some form of cloud strategy is pervasive among all with 90% of companies surveyed reporting that they use it in some way.
A new finding this year is the fact that a surprisingly high number, 42%, of companies surveyed derive 50% or more of their business through cloud-based applications. In fact, a whopping 79.9% of the companies surveyed were getting some revenue from the cloud. This speaks to the digital transformation occurring across many industries and how many are looking to not only move more quickly with the cloud but profit from it as well.

Millennials and the Next Generation of ITMicrosoft
The document discusses a survey of 2,500 IT professionals regarding Millennials and their influence on IT trends. The key findings are:
1) Millennials in IT are more open to public cloud adoption, innovative technologies, and flexible work arrangements compared to older generations.
2) The survey found that Millennials believe in the importance of hybrid cloud, are interested in emerging technologies like containers and bots, and expect employers to support creativity and new ideas.
3) Overall, IT departments appear to be shifting towards cloud, new technologies, and flexible work styles due to the influence of Millennial workers.
This was presented at 2009 Web World Conference.
The presentation analyzes some trends of cloud computing, and prospects the futures of cloud computing.
Traditional BI promises security and scale, but at what cost? Often, working with data, finding answers and sharing them can be laborious and time intensive. The rapid growth and maturation of cloud technologies offers an easier path.

In 2016, cloud technologies went mainstream. But with maturity came the realization that moving to the cloud doesn’t happen overnight. CIOs are prioritizing hosted computing and cloud data storage. But they’re approaching the shift as a gradual, multi-year journey.
Many startups and small businesses will continue to go all-in on cloud. But enterprises will find success in a slow but steady move from on-prem. Hybrid ecosystems—of data, software, and infrastructure—will be the reality for most established organizations.
As this shift to cloud progresses where are things are headed? This paper highlights the top cloud trends for 2017.
These slides present results from The Boston Consulting Group’s 2015 Big Data and Trust Consumer Survey of more than 8,000 consumers in the US and the top five European economies (France, Germany, Italy, Spain, and the UK) and the results of BCG’s 2015 Big Data and Trust Company Survey of the data stewardship practices of 140 companies in eight industries.
Bessemer Venture Partners' is proud to share The State of the Cloud for 2017.
As the definitive guide to the biggest trends in the cloud industry, this year’s “State of the Cloud Report” includes:
1. A Look Back at 2016
- 2016 was a marquee year for a number of reasons. First, we all remember the rocky start in February where the Cloud Market dropped 35%
- Subsequently, rebounded back to normal levels and ended the year up +15%
- The dip in the market had two main outcomes: First, it led to unprecedented amounts of M&A (4x more than any other year and 40% of the total cloud market cap of $300B) – and second, it led to the fewest number of cloud tech IPOs since the financial crisis.
- A combination of these factors has led to the highest quality backlog of private cloud companies in history. The top 100 private Cloud companies alone represent over $100B of private enterprise value.
2. We provide a deeper look into the three top questions every private cloud CEO should be discussing with his/her executive team
- How fast should I be growing?
- How much should I burn?
- How do I scale?
3. Bessemer’s 7 Predictions for 2017
- The year of human assisted AI
- APIs will serve as the backbone for a majority of software infrastructure
- Architect for infinite scale without infinite spend
- Mobile unlocks non-desk worker productivity
- NPS everything
- Diverse teams win
- The screenless software movement
26 Disruptive & Technology Trends 2016 - 2018Brian Solis
Introducing the “26 Disruptive Technology Trends for 2016 – 2018.” In this report, we’ll explore some of the disruptive trends that are affecting pretty much everything over the next few years at least those that I’m following. It’s not just tech, though. The report is organized by socioeconomic and technological impact.
Obviously, this is not an exhaustive list of every technology and societal trend bringing about disruption on planet Earth. What follows thought definitely affects the evolution of digital Darwinism, the evolution of society and technology and its impact on behavior, expectations and customs.
UX, ethnography and possibilities: for Libraries, Museums and ArchivesNed Potter
1) The document discusses how the University of York Library has used various user experience (UX) techniques like ethnographic observation and interviews to better understand user needs and behaviors.
2) Some changes implemented based on UX findings include installing hot water taps, changing hours, and adding blankets - aimed at improving the small details of user experience.
3) The presentation encourages other libraries, archives and museums to try incorporating UX techniques like behavioral mapping and cognitive interviews to inform design changes that enhance services for users.
The document discusses designing teams and processes to adapt to changing needs. It recommends structuring teams so members can work within their competencies and across projects fluidly with clear roles and expectations. The design process should support the team and their work, and be flexible enough to change with team, organization, and project needs. An effective team culture builds an environment where members feel free to be themselves, voice opinions, and feel supported.

Keynote Agile In Rio 2013 - what i've learned in my 10 years of agilitySamuel Crescêncio

A Novel Technique for Image Steganography Based on DWT and Huffman EncodingCSCJournals
This document presents a novel image steganography technique based on discrete wavelet transform (DWT) and Huffman encoding. The technique embeds a secret image into a cover image in the frequency domain after applying DWT. It first Huffman encodes the secret image, then embeds the encoded bits in the high frequency DWT coefficients of the cover image. Experimental results show the technique achieves a high embedding capacity while maintaining a good peak signal-to-noise ratio between the cover and stego images, providing both invisibility and security as the secret image cannot be extracted without the Huffman table. Compared to an existing DWT-based method, the proposed technique provides better image quality for the same embedding capacity.
The global IT services market experienced strong growth over the last five years, reaching $1,150 billion in 2017. North America dominates the market with 42% share. The APAC region is expected to see the highest growth. Consulting services saw the highest growth in 2011 at 11%. Key trends driving growth include cloud computing, mobility, big data and analytics, and BYOD. IBM's strategies focus on integrated solutions, emerging markets, research and acquisitions in areas like big data and analytics, and social business solutions.
Steganography is the art of hiding information in plain sight. It differs from cryptography which only encrypts messages to hide their meaning. Common steganography techniques include least significant bit substitution, discrete cosine transform, and discrete wavelet transform which hide data in images by altering pixel values. These techniques aim to conceal the very existence of hidden messages within digital files like images, audio, and text. Watermarking also embeds hidden signatures but aims to prove ownership rather than full concealment like steganography. Modern steganography tools take advantage of digital file formats to covertly communicate secret messages.
Sales Segmentation & Qualification for B2B SaaS CompaniesGuillaume Lerouge
This document provides guidance on selecting target customer segments and generating qualified leads for B2B SaaS companies. It emphasizes that most founders initially think their product can appeal to everyone, but targeting a specific segment is important. Selecting the right segment determines strategic choices. Generating leads requires inbound and outbound marketing to find potential customers experiencing problems the product solves. Qualifying leads confirms a fit between the product and customers' needs. The document offers tips on segmentation, marketing, sales approaches, and qualifying leads for the target segment.
