TRENDS. EVENTS. MARKETS: Digitalization - key success factors

Digital Transformation is a new stage in the development of the information era. Over the past decade, technology has made a rapid leap forward, penetrating virtually all areas of human activity. Progress does not stand still, and whereas earlier, companies built geographically-distributed networks, launched IT-service management technologies and developed their own resources, today everyone is leaning toward cloud solutions and models based on BigData and IoT.
