Advanced technology will continue to change our lives and the way we operate. Let's look at some technology developments to look out for.

5G and enhanced connectivity 

As bandwidths expanded, 3G enabled online access and data-driven services on mobile devices; 4G enabled the increase of streaming video and music platforms; and 5G, likewise, would expand what is possible.

5G refers to networks that use cutting-edge technology, including augmented reality and virtual reality.

They also threaten to render cable and fiber-based networks obsolete by requiring us to be tethered to a specific location.

Edge computing 

Edge computing is a new technology that ensures low latency and high-speed data processing. Edge computing allows computations to be carried out closer to data storage systems, improving application performance. 

Cloud platforms' high bandwidth costs can act as a motivator for edge computing adoption.

The technology aims to run fewer processes in the cloud and transfer them to places like the user's computer or an edge server. 

Bridging the gap between data and computation eliminates long-distance communication between the server and the client, resulting in increased process speed. 

Therefore, edge computing used to handle time-sensitive data stored in remote areas with minimal access to the central location. Cloud computing and IoT applications would benefit from the technology.

Internet of behaviors (IoB) 

The Internet of Things (IoT) is concerned with using data and insights to influence behavior. IoT devices are possible as massive databases for Internet of behavior (IoB) paradigms. 

Businesses will be able to follow customer behavior and use IoB to benefit their respective channels with the aid of IoB. For example, a health-tracking app may collect information about your physical activity routine, diet, sleep, and other habits. 

This information can be used to encourage more behavioral improvement, such as by creating personalized health plans.

Human augmentation

Human augmentation is a broad term that encompasses innovations that seek to improve human abilities and productivity. 

Physical augmentation, such as prosthetics, AR lenses, and RFID tags infused inside humans, are all part of the field of human augmentation.

This can aid in the enhancement of human cognition, perception, and action abilities. This is accomplished by sensing and actuation technology, information fusion and fission, and artificial intelligence.

Distributed cloud 

The Distributed Cloud technology trend is poised to take Cloud Computing to new heights. It is concerned with distributing public cloud resources to various geographical locations, processes, updates, delivery, and other relevant activities being handled centrally by the original public cloud provider. 

Instead of offering a centralized solution, it would assist in meeting the service needs of individual cloud locations separately. 

Meanwhile, companies would undoubtedly benefit from this technological trend by decreasing latency, reducing the risk of data loss, and lowering costs.

Technologies such as Artificial Intelligence (AI), the Internet of Things (IoT), and others that involve processing large amounts of data in real-time will benefit from the introduction of Distributed Cloud technology.
