The information communications and technology (ICT) marketplace is on the verge of its most significant transformation yet and is poised to hit the $4 trillion mark worldwide by 2016. This transformation is shifting IT complexity into the network cloud, making it possible for the corporate experience to more closely reflect the consumer experience. Yankee Group predicts that Anywhere IT will change the way people work, and dramatically reshape the enterprise vendor landscape. Even amid the current economic turmoil, Yankee Group analysts advise organizations to begin exploiting Anywhere IT now or risk losing a competitive edge. Yankee Group analysts Sheryl Kingstone and Zeus Kerravala present how Anywhere IT is energizing the enterprise as services move to the non-traditional, and cloud computing, application mobility and social media fuse.
