The future of enterprise computing

Abstract

Summary form only given. With emerging computing trends of social, mobile, cloud and big data, and also with the new trend of BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) in companies, enterprise computing is recently going through transformational changes. This talk will start by looking at the recent computing trends, one by one, and their implication on the enterprise computing, individually and collectively. While the trends started mostly for consumer computing, they ultimately have a significant impact on enterprise computing. It is expected that they will transform how information and communication technologies are used in enterprises, and so that they will fundamentally and permanently change the nature of the business of enterprise computing. We will look at a number of recent example products and services for enterprising computing built on the emerging computing trends and catering their needs, in an effort to take a peek at where enterprise computing is going in the future. Based on this observation, we will discuss the challenges and opportunities in the future of enterprise computing.
