2010 and the IT world according to Gartner

2010 and the IT world according to Gartner

I read an article this morning at eChannelline by Mark Cox that I found interesting about IT playing a big role in post-recession strategy. You can read the entire article here

Basically the article stated that in 2010, sixty-two percent of the CE0's surveyed by Gartner in this particular survey "say that IT-enabled changes will be a key element in their post-recession strategy". This is indeed encouraging news!

Now, I'm not expecting 2010 busines to be what it was in 2006 / 2007 and neither is Gartner but, according to Mark Cox's article "Mark Raskino, research vice president and Gartner fellow. "Business leaders are gasping for growth after a long period holding their breath, and they are expecting to increase the importance of IT in their post-recession approach."

Cloud computing in any form, be it public, private or a hybrid will certainly become a major consideration in the execution of any approach taken.

To qoute Mark's article again "These findings reinforce Gartner's IT spending forecast of 3.3 percent growth in 2010," Raskino said. "With this warm attitude to IT, CIOs should stand their ground if peers attempt to gain investment share at IT's expense."

2009 has been an eye-opening year for us and we're looking forward to 2010 and what it will bring with great anticipation. As your company moves into 2010 and you begin your stratigic IT initatives, Cirrhus9 is here to help flawlessly execute them with you.
