2. organizations will deal with 50 times more information
3. information will be stored in 75 times more “containers” (files, objects, devices, etc.)
4. digital society will deal with 10 times more servers: both physical and virtual
5. just 50% more IT professionals will deal with all these advances by the end of the decade
regarding to what was said above there are two news: good and bad
GOOD: You as an IT professional surely will be employed and very popular
BAD:You will be very busy 🙂
As a student of the Computer Engineering Department at the Qafqaz University be in a hurry to become one of those demanded and busy IT Professionals.
P.S. – 1 zettabytes (ZB) = 1000exabytes (EB) = 1000000petabytes (PB) = 1000000000terabytes (TB) = 1000000000000gigabytes (GB) = 1000000000000000000000B
