Overview

A look back at the last 10 years shows how much technology has evolved and been accepted. The cloud is a perfect example. In the early days, discussions about the unknown met with resistance, while today some companies even use multiple cloud systems for data storage. The provider offering has also adapted to changes, reviewed infrastructure and services proposed, and moved from perpetual licences on premises to annual SAAS fees. The pandemic definitely took us all by surprise and some were better prepared than others. Some companies had already developed a mature strategy for digital transformation and some have settled on a plan for their lab of the future. Where do we stand today? Which technology trends will lead us into the year 2030?
