Top 10 Strategic Technology Trends for 2013
1. MOBILE DEVICES BATTLES
Is Windows 8 in Your Future?
Windows 8 is now available, but most organizations are still deploying Windows 7 and working to eliminate Windows XP by the time support ends in April 2014. Organizations need to decide how much time to spend on Windows 8, and which users to target with the new OS.
2. MOBILE APPS AND HTML5
HTML5 and Web Technologies Are Becoming Major Forces in Mobile Application Development
Mobile apps and Web technologies such as HTML5 are changing the way applications are designed and developed. Take a look at the ways development frameworks can be used to create native, hybrid and Web applications using the same code base.

The Web is at the center of the Nexus of Forces (cloud, mobile, social and information) and provides the primary engine for access to all users.
3. PERSONAL CLOUD
Consumers and the Personal Cloud
A new era of computing has begun, the era of the personal cloud. Online applications and services will transform the consumer technology market and become the "locations" where users will store content and access personal, business and government services.
Personal Cloud in Emerging Markets
Personal cloud will be a transformational force in emerging markets, just as it will be in developed markets. However, it will have different characteristics.
4. THE INTERNET OF THINGS

Cloud computing continues to evolve, with new technologies emerging to support the dynamic creation of cloud services. IT departments in large enterprises should play the role of IT as a service broker, and train staffs to manage cloud provider relationships.
6. STRATEGIC BIG DATA
Big Data Adoption in the Logical Data Warehouse
Gartner survey results indicate that leading organizations are adding big data to their data warehouse and data integration infrastructure. IT leaders and information managers must plan to address big data in their integration infrastructure and warehouse.
7. ACTIONABLE ANALYTICS
Actionable Analytics Will Be Driven by Mobile, Social and Big Data Forces in 2013 and Beyond
To make analytics more pervasive and actionable, business intelligence and analytics professionals must make analytics more transparent, in context, and more embedded in real-time applications accessible by nontraditional analytics users.
Hype Cycle for Analytic Applications, 2012
Analytical capability is increasingly packaged as a solution to address specific business issues, rather than created with generic business intelligence tools. This Hype Cycle shows the maturity, adoption rates and benefits of various analytic applications.
8. MAINSTREAM IN-MEMORY COMPUTING (IMC)
Top 10 Technology Trends for 2013: In-Memory Computing Aims at Mainstream Adoption
In-memory computing technology adoption is rapidly growing because of its power, versatility and incorporation into several software and hardware products. However, IMC will force IT leaders to rethink their application architectures and will introduce new IT operation and data governance burdens.
Predicts 2013: In-Memory Computing: Growing Gains, but Also Growing Pains
Enabled by a relentless decline in hardware costs and rapidly maturing software enablers, use of in-memory computing will grow fast. However, IT leaders leveraging it to increase their companies' competitiveness will face new data management issues.
9. INTEGRATED ECOSYSTEMS
Integrated Platforms & Ecosystems
Providers increasingly promote tightly integrated systems and managed ecosystems to simplify the IT environment. Enterprises must balance these approaches with techniques to minimize vendor lock in.
