Quick summary of the IT event today
Just a small summary of the key messages from the IT event today. The opening speech was coming from Martin Schallbruch (https://www.esmt.org/martin-schallbruch) from the ESMT - European School of Management and Technology in Berlin. Under the headline of "Who dominates who in the digitization?" he was making a difference between two key areas:
- Technological Drivers
- Machine Learning
- Virtualisation
- Internet of Things (sensor, actuator, networking - realtime, autonomy, intelligence)
- Fluctuating basis
- growing innovation speed
- insufficient technical quality (e.g. software)
- exponentially increasing complexity
- cross-sectoral dependencies (e.g. Smart City)
Every company should be doing the following:
- concentrate on 3 key areas --> Workplace, Security and Hybrid IT (a combination of internal and external IT services)
- have an understanding of their own digital business model
- have their digital sovereignty under contol (dependencies, security architecture, demand management)
Close to the end of the day the matrix42 (https://www.matrix42.com/en/) CEO Oliver Bendig gave a entertaining presentation about digital transformation. Some key statements below:
- The workplace is a mobile service that can change in real time
- You have to understand your customer
- Unified Endpoint Management and Unified Workspace Management
- A 360 degree view on the workplace is required to come from silos to a connected work environment
- The browser will be the new operating system
- From Science Fiction to Science Fact (see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ystdF6jN7hc&t=)
- Alexa, Cortana and Siri will even enter the workplace
- A workspace chat bot (based on Skype for Business) is currently in beta testing
