2016 Hype Cycle Special Report Distills Insight From More Than Two,000 Technologies
The technologies on Gartner Inc.’s Hype Cycle for Emerging Technologies, two thousand sixteen expose three distinct technology trends that are poised to be of the highest priority for organizations facing rapidly accelerating digital business innovation.
Transparently immersive practices, the perceptual clever machine age, and the platform revolution are the three overarching technology trends that profoundly create fresh practices with unrivaled intelligence and suggest platforms that permit organizations to connect with fresh business ecosystems.
The Hype Cycle for Emerging Technologies report is the longest-running annual Gartner Hype Cycle, providing a cross-industry perspective on the technologies and trends that business strategists, chief innovation officers, R&D leaders, entrepreneurs, global market developers and emerging-technology teams should consider in developing emerging-technology portfolios.
“The Hype Cycle for Emerging Technologies is unique among most Hype Cycles because it distills insights from more than Two,000 technologies into a succinct set of must-know emerging technologies and trends that will have the single greatest influence on an organization’s strategic planning,” said Mike J. Walker, research director at Gartner. “This Hype Cycle specifically concentrates on the set of technologies that is demonstrating promise in delivering a high degree of competitive advantage over the next five to ten years.” (see Figure 1)

“To thrive in the digital economy, enterprise architects must proceed to work with their CIOs and business leaders to proactively detect emerging technologies that will enable transformational business models for competitive advantage, maximize value through reduction of operating costs, and overcome legal and regulatory hurdles,” said Mr. Walker. “This Hype Cycle provides a high-level view of significant emerging trends that organizations must track, as well as the specific technologies that must be monitored.”
Transparently immersive practices: Technology will proceed to become more human-centric to the point where it will introduce transparency inbetween people, businesses and things. This relationship will become much more entwined as the evolution of technology becomes more adaptive, contextual and fluid within the workplace, at home, and interacting with businesses and other people.
The perceptual clever machine age: Wise machine technologies will be the most disruptive class of technologies over the next ten years due to radical computational power, near-endless amounts of data, and unprecedented advances in deep neural networks that will permit organizations with brainy machine technologies to corset data in order to adapt to fresh situations and solve problems that no one has encountered previously. Enterprises that are seeking leverage in this theme should consider the following technologies: Wise Dust, Machine Learning, Virtual Individual Assistants, Cognitive Accomplished Advisors, Wise Data Discovery, Wise Workspace, Conversational User Interfaces, Brainy Robots, Commercial UAVs (Drones), Autonomous Vehicles, Natural-Language Question Answering, Individual Analytics, Enterprise Taxonomy and Ontology Management, Data Broker PaaS (dbrPaaS), and Context Brokering.
The platform revolution: Emerging technologies are revolutionizing the concepts of how platforms are defined and used. The shift from technical infrastructure to ecosystem-enabling platforms is laying the foundations for entirely fresh business models that are forming the bridge inbetween humans and technology. Within these dynamic ecosystems, organizations must proactively understand and redefine their strategy to create platform-based business models, and to exploit internal and outward algorithms in order to generate value. Key platform-enabling technologies to track include Neuromorphic Hardware, Quantum Computing, Blockchain, IoT Platform, Software-Defined Security and Software-Defined Anything (SDx).
“These trends illustrate that the more organizations are able to make technology an integral part of their employees’, fucking partners’ and customers’ practice, the more they will be able to connect their ecosystems to platforms in fresh and dynamic ways,” said Mr. Walker. “Also, as clever machine technologies proceed to evolve, they will become part of the human practice and the digital business ecosystem.”
