Brain-Machine Interface, Intelligent Robots and DNA Computing. All of these might sound like the plotline for the next Hollywood Blockbuster. But what if I tell you that these emerging technologies can basically, have a transformational impact on our daily lives? This is why I bring to you the list of

Top 10 Trending Technologies in 2021

Now understand that this list is purely subjective and is in no particular order. So, feel free to leave your suggestions in the comment box below.

First up on our list we have 5G technology.

Now, 5G is the next generation of Cellular Networks and Services. Currently, the market is led by Switzerland and closely followed by South Korea and the US. Now, I understand this was on our list the previous year and a bigger rollout of this technology was expected this year. But that has been pushed to the next. Now, 5G is expected to give at least 20 GBPS downlink and 10 GBPS uplink,

which makes it at least 40 times faster than our current 4G LTE. Now this opens up opportunities for telecom operators to give us new services, customer experience and network operations.

Now, certain companies which are investing heavily in this technology for the testing and development of equipment are Samsung, Intel, Huawei, Deloitte, Nokia, Ericsson and Qualcomm.

Next on our list is the Internet of Behaviours.

Now, a lot of industrial sites are employing computer vision to determine whether their employees have been complying with the protocol. Not just that, this data is then collected and processed by various organizations, trying to influence their employee behavior using this data. Now this collection of data and processing to drive human behavior is known as the Internet of Behaviours. This data could be collected from anywhere. It may be commercial, consumer databases, government agencies, public domains, social media, GPS locations. As the sophistication of this technology grows so will the adoption of this trend. Major players of the market such as AWS, Microsoft, SAP, Dell, Cisco and Cloudera are all the front runners of this market but other companies are not too far behind.

Next on our list, we have DevSecOps.

As most of you might have guessed, it is short for Development, Security and Operations. The main objective here is to implement Security on the same scale and speed as Development and Operations. With the wider adoption of microservices, DevSecOps has successfully navigated its way into our big players such as NASA, Amazon, Dell and IBM who were already big players in the DevOps market.

But not just that, an anywhere operations model is vital for businesses to emerge successfully from the current economy. The whole idea here is to access, deliver and enable all sorts of platforms and applications and operations from anywhere that you are. This format has made its way to many different aspects of the technology and now we have GitOps, DataOps and NoOps as a result.

Moving further to our list, we have Intelligent Process Automation.

Now in our list for 2020, we had Hyper Automation which basically is the idea of anything that can be automated, should be automated. This year we found something even more fascinating for you guys- Intelligent Process Automation. Now the earlier generations of RPA automated on the basis of structured data and predefined rules but with the advancements of this technology, and easy integration with Machine Learning IPA bots have done away with the if-this-then-that rule statement. Now IPA allows its bots to take advantage of AI, ML and Big Data, which means they are going to continuously learn and improve. With the adoption of RPA in the market in the coming years the enterprise investment in IPA is estimated to be about 232 billion dollars by the year 2025 from companies such as KPMG, AWS and Microsoft. Now as we see it, RPA or Intelligent Process Automation solutions are not just a choice, they are an absolute requirement to thrive in the near future.

The Next on our list is, Tactile VR.

Now innovative technologies have successfully created immersive experiences for us using Augmented and Virtual reality. While Virtual Reality creates these simulated environments for us, Augmented reality is the technological layer on top. Now Cisco predicts a 12-fold increase in the AR-VR traffic by the year 2020 in all forms of entertainment. Now, touch gives us a deeper understanding of certain things which cannot be completely experienced via sight or hearing alone and this is where Tactile VR comes into picture. Tactile VR brings together certain pieces of technology such as sensors and advanced optics and creates a system through which you can scale the touch barrier and create a complete experience for yourself. But this could not be possible without highly secure and reliable 5G networks and companies such as Oculus, Virtuix and Cisco, making this dream into a reality. Next on our list, we have Big Data Analytics. Not very new, is it now? Big Data has been hanging around in the market for quite a while since a lot of big businesses have been moving away from traditional ways of data storage and processing but there are a few new trends of course such as X-Analytics, which is being used currently to tackle global issues such as climate change, disease prevention and wildlife protection.

Now, while we are at the subject, let’s talk about something a little bit more intriguing such as Decision Intelligence. Now Decision Intelligence encompasses many different disciplines and also forms the framework for many Data Engineers to design, develop, execute and monitor decision models and processes in the context of business insights and behaviors. Now by the year 2023, it has been estimated that more than 33 percent of all big companies such as Amazon, Netflix, Starbucks, Spotify, Google and Adobe will engage their analysts in Decision Intelligence. Next on our list, we have Human Augmentation. Humans have continually experimented with technology to enhance their lives as we know it. But this time this curiosity has ventured into completely new territory. I’m talking about Human Augmentation. Now the idea behind this concept is simple. Using technology like AI and IoT, not just to enhance our daily lives but also, take human intelligence to a new level. Now the current research is continually racing towards helping those with physical disabilities using bionics and prosthetic augmentation and also people with sicknesses using experimentation with their genetics but this also provides you an opportunity to do something extremely creative. For example, our favorite tech celebrity Elon Musk’s Neuralink aims to create a very powerful brain to machine interface, which can handle and process lots and lots of data. Apart from that, in Sweden, every fifth employee of TUI has an electronic chip in their hand which they can use to access doors lockers and printers and it’s great, isn’t it? Because who can forget their hand at home, right?
