Here is a quote from a recent GigaOm post<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Enterprises spend $270 billion on software every year, yet some can\u2019t even calculate the number of employees in their organizations. Shocking? Well, such was the problem for Chiquita\u00a0before they moved to Workday. \u00a0But rudimentary challenges like this plague every enterprise in the world, and every individual within those enterprises. When we need to derive anything beyond the basics from our enterprise software, most corporations are out of luck.<\/p>\n

This problem is only getting worse. With\u00a01.8 trillion gigabytes of information projected to be generated and stored this year alone, our enterprise technology is on a collision course to become utterly useless if something doesn\u2019t fundamentally change. \u00a0The data being created is obnoxiously large, with IDC citing that \u201cby 2020, IT departments worldwide will need to administer 10 times the number of servers\u2013both virtual and physical\u201350 times the amount of data, and 75 times more files<\/strong>.\u201d \u00a0Our software, infrastructure, and organizations are ill-prepared to manage this scale of data creation, let alone generate anything meaningful or useful with this amount of content being created and shared.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The way I see it, if you want any job security at all, IT is an excellent industry to work for. \u00a0Of course, only if you are agile enough to keep up with all the changes and developments.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\n
