This post is a quick overview of an Abto Software blog article.
In today’s fast-paced environment, information technology dictates day-to-day business operations.
Mature organizations that prioritize business continuity should research and integrate ever-emerging trends. Market expansion across industries, quickly changing customer demand, and many other factors are pushing forward-looking companies towards rethinking their strategies.
Artificial intelligence – a trend gaining momentum across domains
One trend worth mentioning, talking about up-to-date trends – artificial intelligence and its various techniques. Predictive analytics and maintenance, recommendation systems, sentiment analysis, personalization engines – the technology is revolutionizing everyday processes.
As stated by Forbes:
- 97% of business owners are confident that ChatGPT will benefit their workflows
- 56% of surveyed owners are leveraging artificial intelligence to optimize customer services
Artificial intelligence is applied to optimize data management, daily decision-making, and other critical aspects. And when handled professionally to resolve business-specific challenges – data availability, ethical concerns – the integration can bring considerable benefit.
Some projects to mention talking about Abto Software’s AI expertise:
- Infrastructure development for indoor tracking application
- NLP model for sustainability-focused brand research
Cloud technology – another trend that’s going to stay
Another trend continually enjoying pervasive adoption – cloud computing, actively integrated across segments. Secure storage, virtual desktops, data backup, disaster recovery, communication, collaboration, and more – cloud services are changing everything about data management.
As reported by Techopedia:
- The global cloud computing market size was valued $546.1 billion in 2022
- The public cloud services spending scale is said to grow by 21.7% in 2023, thus reaching $597.3 billion
Cloud computing is incorporated to harness data security, flexibility, scalability, and better resource allocation. And despite potential challenges – system downtime, performance and latency bottlenecks, data migration – the innovation can ensure competitive advantage.
Successful projects worth mentioning speaking about Abto Software’s cloud expertise:
- Custom cloud-based data warehouse for business process automation
- Automated, cloud-based document generation for optimized marketing routines
Low-code and no-code platforms
Low-code and no-code development are approaches being implemented to replace manual methodologies. These incorporate visual interfaces, drag-and-drop functionality, pre-built components, workflow automation, and other modern-day capabilities.
The practices implemented within low-code and no-code development:
- Visual development: drag-and-drop interfaces for building intuitive applications
- Rapid prototyping: faster creation and iteration
- Coding abstraction: coding tasks made simple
- Coding automation: repeated workflows made straightforward
- Pre-built components: reusable modules and templates
- Efficient communication and collaboration: team-based creation and sharing
Sustainable technology
Sustainable development – another approach transforming design, software development, and deployment. Focused around data center energy efficiency, carbon footprints, and other environment-specific problems, this methodology introduces principles reshaping every project stage.
The practices implemented within sustainable development:
- Software design: intuitive design, energy-efficient algorithms, modular architecture, code optimization
- Software development & deployment: CI/CD, IaC, component containerization, serverless architecture
- Data management: data minimization, efficient retrieval, data deduplication, archiving, purging
- Third-party integrations: green partners, API efficiency, caching, batching, monitoring, optimization
Microservices architecture
Microservices architecture is also an approach gaining popularity where applications are broken into modules. In contrast to conventional monolithic architecture where applications are created using single, unified units, this approach is implemented to facilitate greater performance, flexibility, scalability, and maintenance.
When introducing microservices architecture, businesses leverage:
- Improved flexibility by breaking down applications into services
- Enhanced scalability by supporting individual scaling of services
- Resource optimization by developing and deploying separate services
- Easy maintenance by leveraging more manageable, individual services
Cybersecurity prioritization
In the modern world, more and more organizations are facing security threats that affect their performance. These comprise data breaches, malware, phishing, insider threats, identity theft, and other common threats that cause reputational and financial damage.
When implementing cybersecurity measures, businesses harness:
- Artificial intelligence: predictive analytics and maintenance, fraud detection and prevention
- Computer vision: image recognition, image classification, metadata extraction, video processing
- Quantum computing: data encryption, secured protocols, advanced hashing, anomaly detection
- Zero Trust: continuous verification, threat detection and response, and more
