Businesses should always be on the lookout for new ways to update their IT infrastructures, no matter what industry they are in. If you are able to keep at the top of business IT trends, you will soon find that many of your operations and typical business practices are much easier to handle. Here are some of the top things you can implement in 2019 to keep on top of trends.
Serverless Computing
This concept is something of a misnomer since the servers do actually exist. Serverless computing is, in fact, a software architecture pattern which improves and streamlines management. It helps your IT staff to adopt an application-centric viewpoint to their management rather than focus on any physical structures. It will be down to the service provider to maintain the resources required such as the runtime environment.
SaaS Improvements
Software-as-a-Service, or SaaS, is one of the most common structures of software businesses use nowadays. However, there is the worry that these services are becoming vastly overcomplicated compared to what companies actually require. One of the biggest incoming trends is more training for IT and Operations Managers to ensure that they fully understand each part of the SaaS and how to best implement it within your company. Check out a service like Joe the IT Guy for more information about how to best approach using SaaS in your business.
Digital Preparation
With more and more business practices beginning to move online, there is a real chance that your IT practices will have to change and your staff will need to diversify. The digitalisation of certain practices means that your IT staff are going to need to pick up new skills to keep up. Versatility and adaptability are both going to be key traits your employees need to have to keep up.
Prepare for Global Infrastructure
It does not matter if you are only a local company with no aspirations to trade on a global level; you need to make sure that you are properly prepared to operate on this level. Much of this will come down to correct selecting partners to work with. You need to make sure that you are always working with people who are able to build your business up to be the best it possibly can be.
Inclusion of AI
Finally, the last trend we can expect to see being brought on more and more is with the inclusion of AI. Artificial intelligence programs are becoming ever more sophisticated and there are some incredible impacts they could have on our businesses. You need to make sure that you are investigating the AI programs which could help you out; you never know when one of their services might be able to simplify your wider practices.
These five trends help to show the direction IT has been moving in in 2019. It is clear that the focus is on flexibility and expertise. If you feel like your IT infrastructure needs some work, start planning an overhaul today.
