2. The Internet of Thingso IOT is the network of physical
objects or "things" embedded with electronics, software, sensors, and network connectivity, which enables these objects to collect and exchange data - Wikipedia
o The term was coined by British entrepreneur Kevin Ashton in 1999
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_of_Thingshttp://apcmag.com/arduino-masterclass-part-4-build-a-mini-robot.htm/

3. 3D Printing
http://www.gartner.com/smarterwithgartner/gartners-top-10-strategic-technology-trends-for-2015/
3D printing will reach a tipping point over the next three years as the market for relatively low-cost 3D printing devices continues to grow rapidly and industrial use expands significantly - Gartner
![Page 12: Making a Better World with Technology Innovations](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022030209/58ad056e1a28ab0b408b4c5d/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
4. Advanced, Pervasive & Invisible Analytics
Analytics will take center stage as the volume of data generated by embedded systems increases and vast pools of structured and unstructured data inside and outside the enterprise are analyzed with a focus on the answers, not the data - Gartner
http://www.gartner.com/smarterwithgartner/gartners-top-10-strategic-technology-trends-for-2015/https://www.google.co.uk/intl/en/analytics/features/mobile.html

7. Cloud/client Computing
http://www.gartner.com/newsroom/id/2867917https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloud_computinghttp://www.forbes.com/sites/emc/2014/02/03/cloud-computing-for-the-enterprise-its-about-service/
Cloud computing is a disruptive phenomenon, with the potential to make IT organizations more responsive than ever.
The convergence of cloud and mobile computing will continue to promote the growth of centrally coordinated applications that can be delivered to any device - Gartner
![Page 19: Making a Better World with Technology Innovations](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022030209/58ad056e1a28ab0b408b4c5d/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
8. Software Defined Applications & Infrastructure
http://www.ericsson.com/news/130221-software-defined-networking-the-service-provider-perspective_244129229_c
Software-defined networking, storage, data centers and security are maturing. Cloud services are software-configurable through API calls.
To deal with the rapidly changing demands of digital business and scale systems up or down rapidly, computing has to move away from static to dynamic models - Gartner
![Page 20: Making a Better World with Technology Innovations](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022030209/58ad056e1a28ab0b408b4c5d/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Infrastructure as Code
https://puppetlabs.com/solutions/infrastructure-as-code
By describing your infrastructure as code, your configurations can be consistently repeated, tested, shared and promoted across your entire environment, providing the building blocks for a continuous delivery pipeline - Puppet Labs
![Page 21: Making a Better World with Technology Innovations](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022030209/58ad056e1a28ab0b408b4c5d/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
9. Web-Scale IT
http://www.gartner.com/newsroom/id/2867917
Web-scale IT is a pattern of global-class computing that delivers the capabilities of large cloud service providers within an enterprise IT setting.
More organizations will begin thinking, acting and building applications and infrastructure like Web giants such as Amazon, Google and Facebook - Gartner
![Page 22: Making a Better World with Technology Innovations](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022030209/58ad056e1a28ab0b408b4c5d/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
10. Risk-Based Security & Self Protection
http://www.gartner.com/newsroom/id/2867917
Security-aware application design, dynamic and static application security testing, and runtime application self-protection combined with active context-aware and adaptive access controls are all needed in today's dangerous digital world.
This will lead to new models of building security directly into applications - Gartner

Open Source Culture
![Page 30: Making a Better World with Technology Innovations](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022030209/58ad056e1a28ab0b408b4c5d/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Why Open Source?

Flexibility & FreedomIn a business context, software flexibility is about being able to choose solutions suitable for the needs of the users. As requirements in the business change, solutions should not be unreasonably constrained by software.
If the software vendor go out of business or cease the development of a product Open-source software allows you to retain not just the right to use the software you already have, but the ability to continue to use it as your needs change.
![Page 32: Making a Better World with Technology Innovations](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022030209/58ad056e1a28ab0b408b4c5d/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)

More Eyes, More SecureWhile it might seem counterintuitive, open source software is often more secure than proprietary software.
But when the process is open, bugs, flaws, back doors, and vulnerabilities are found sooner, more often, and fixed more quickly.
Would you rather fly in a plane that has been inspected for safety by 10 inspectors, or 100, or 1,000 times? When it comes to finding problems, more eyes are always better - Redhat
![Page 33: Making a Better World with Technology Innovations](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022030209/58ad056e1a28ab0b408b4c5d/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)

Lower CostPurchase cost of software is only one factor; total cost of ownership (TCO) is what really matters
Possibly zero purchase price
Near-zero vulnerability to viruses eliminating need for virus checking, data loss and downtime
Claimed lower vulnerability to security breaches and hack attacks reducing systems administration load

A Final ThoughtYour work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it - Steve Jobs
