Leaving development in this field up to the competition means giving up market share, efficiency and profitability advantages.īut as oversight from governments and consumer interest in ethics rise, a higher number of companies will showcase their AI's explainability as a competitive factor. In 2020 and beyond, the use of artificial intelligence is practically expected of companies in every field. To Google Cloud's advantage, 'explainable AI' will become key weapon in the cloud wars Security and data privacy have never been more tightly woven. Now, entities targeted by ransomware could also have a data breach.
Last year ransomware operators began threatening data exposure or solicitation if a ransom went unpaid. On top of new fines, organizations are facing a particularly cruel blend of ransomware and data breaches. The financial implications of the California Consumer Privacy Act could be much graver than fines (up to $7,500 per individual) previously handed down by the Federal Trade Commission. 1, compelling companies with California customers to adjust, if not, overhaul their policies.

IaaS public cloud market share, 2017-2018 Company With almost half of the overall public cloud market share, per Gartner's numbers, it will likely stay ahead of other vendors but drop a few percentage points each year. That doesn't mean AWS will lose its lead. With enough progress, Microsoft could jump significantly, as much as 10 percentage points, and capture 25% of the public cloud market. Think too about how many workloads are still not in the cloud - Forrester says one-fifth of enterprise applications are in the cloud recent Goldman Sachs research puts that number at around 23%.įor vendors, it's a chance to encourage existing customers to move more applications to the cloud, expanding commitments with vendors.

But Microsoft and Google have something Slack fundamentally lacks: bundling capabilities. Slack also launched Microsoft 365 integrations, as it did with other competitors, including Google. By inviting email users to Slack, the company is able to introduce, and encourage, further platform adoption. Last year, Slack built "bridges" for email users who are not on its platform. With saturated markets in technology, vendors will further adopt the " if you can't beat 'em, join 'em " mindset.
Slack, Microsoft will have to play nice with collaboration vendors Increasing the role of data-based decisions will lead to more successful digital transformation efforts and allow companies to avoid modernization pitfalls. To effectively do so requires appointing IT leaders with backgrounds in data and crafting realistic strategies for collecting and capitalizing on data. Rather than appointing a chief data officer, though some companies will go that route, more organizations will weave data into business operation decision making.
