Late 1970s – Ethernet<\/p>\n

Late 1980s & Early 1990s – Internet<\/p>\n

Late 1990s – Y2K was the trend and revolution of easy operating systems like Windows with word processing and spreadsheets happened. Also, LINUX. ERP, CRM, BPM, HRM and similar software pick up in market.<\/p>\n

Early 2000s – Internet boom, Email, Browsers, Dot Com, Start of E-Commerce, Java, boom in Portals, Scanning solutions, Enterprise Content Management, Search and associated technologies<\/p>\n

Post 2011- Shift to Mobiles, GPS, Location tracking, cameras, virtual \/ augmented reality on mobiles and so on. Lot of growth for companies like Google \/ Apple.<\/p>\n

Post Mobiles – Cloud, Machine Learning, Artificial Intelligence, Analytics, IoT, Beacons, Business Intelligence & BigData<\/p>\n

2010\/11 onwards – RPA, SAAS\/PAAS\/IAAS, Facebook, Social Media, Agile, DevOps, Crypto currency, Focus on Internet, Network & Cloud security<\/p>\n

Time is now right to have an AI \/ ML based System in Enterprise IT ecosystem that can create and manage systems on it’s own or at least most of it at Enterprise \/ Technical & Solution Architecture level along with automated creation, deployment and maintenance of software systems using Cloud<\/p>\n
