<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\nIn order to successfully master this phase of change, CIOs and digitally ambitious board members must focus on three areas over the next five years. In the short term, they must rectify any quick fixes and deficiencies in IT that arose during the initial crisis response. <\/p>\n\n\n\n They need to identify where the crisis and the responses to it have accelerated IT transformation in their organizations and hold on to that progress. And most importantly, they need to look for opportunities to adopt new technologies to take advantage of the industry-wide disruption and grow the business in the \"new normal\" with enhanced capabilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n CIOs must accelerate the transition to a cloud-centric IT model to remain competitive and make the enterprise more digitally robust. IDC has released its global IT industry forecasts for 2021 and subsequent years, explaining how businesses will need to respond to the impact of the Covid 19 pandemic.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":38,"featured_media":70654,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"pmpro_default_level":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[2,38469],"tags":[37753,69],"coauthors":[19920],"class_list":["post-70653","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-sap-nachrichten","category-mag-20-12","tag-corona","tag-idc","pmpro-has-access"],"acf":[],"featured_image_urls_v2":{"full":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/shutterstock_1658501806.jpg",1000,450,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/shutterstock_1658501806-150x150.jpg",150,150,true],"medium":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/shutterstock_1658501806.jpg",400,180,false],"medium_large":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/shutterstock_1658501806-768x346.jpg",768,346,true],"large":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/shutterstock_1658501806.jpg",1000,450,false],"image-100":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/shutterstock_1658501806-100x45.jpg",100,45,true],"image-480":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/shutterstock_1658501806-480x216.jpg",480,216,true],"image-640":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/shutterstock_1658501806-640x288.jpg",640,288,true],"image-720":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/shutterstock_1658501806-720x324.jpg",720,324,true],"image-960":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/shutterstock_1658501806-960x432.jpg",960,432,true],"image-1168":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/shutterstock_1658501806.jpg",1000,450,false],"image-1440":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/shutterstock_1658501806.jpg",1000,450,false],"image-1920":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/shutterstock_1658501806.jpg",1000,450,false],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/shutterstock_1658501806.jpg",1000,450,false],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/shutterstock_1658501806.jpg",1000,450,false],"trp-custom-language-flag":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/shutterstock_1658501806.jpg",18,8,false],"bricks_large_16x9":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/shutterstock_1658501806.jpg",1000,450,false],"bricks_large":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/shutterstock_1658501806.jpg",1000,450,false],"bricks_large_square":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/shutterstock_1658501806.jpg",1000,450,false],"bricks_medium":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/shutterstock_1658501806.jpg",600,270,false],"bricks_medium_square":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/shutterstock_1658501806.jpg",600,270,false],"profile_24":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/shutterstock_1658501806-24x24.jpg",24,24,true],"profile_48":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/shutterstock_1658501806-48x48.jpg",48,48,true],"profile_96":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/shutterstock_1658501806-96x96.jpg",96,96,true],"profile_150":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/shutterstock_1658501806-150x150.jpg",150,150,true],"profile_300":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/shutterstock_1658501806-300x300.jpg",300,300,true]},"post_excerpt_stackable_v2":"

A detailed look at IDC's top ten global IT industry forecasts shows that the shift to cloud centralization is accelerating. By the end of 2021, 80 percent of enterprises will put in place a mechanism to move to cloud-centric infrastructures and applications twice as fast as before the pandemic, based on recent experience. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
By 2023, 75 percent of the world's 2,000 largest companies will also commit to technically equipping their workers to collaborate in real time, spatially separated from the outset (rather than forced by external circumstances). This will lead to better informed, collaborative and more productive employees.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
