After a year of more restrained investment, the Brazilian IT market promises positive progress in 2017. According to IDC, the outlook for growth is 2.5%, with the possibility of the sector achieving an increase of up to 5.7% compared to the previous period.
2017 opens up space for transformations that, according to assessments, can no longer be postponed in the current technological scenario. For Denis Arcieri, general director of IDC Brazil, more than 6% of CIOs aim to invest in innovations.
Although the outlook is positive, there are some important factors that IDC highlights, such as the need to improve infrastructure and invest in certain platforms. Check out some of the possibilities and prepare yourself for this new panorama:
- Digital transformation is once again reaffirming itself as an essential path to greater efficiency and competitiveness. Currently, more than 10% of Brazilian companies invest 5% of their turnover in innovative technologies.
- In addition to being resumed, investments in security are set to increase after the restrained year of 2016. By the end of the year, investments should exceed 360 million dollars.
- The Business Analytics Software market could grow by up to 4.8%, generating around US$ 848 million in the country. The trend is for organizations to invest more and more in their analytical capabilities in order to gain even more intelligence and insights into their business. This openness also makes it possible to grow Big Data initiatives.
- Previously just a trend, cloud computing is coming into the mainstream in full force. The study concluded that the cloud market is expected to grow by up to 20% this year, reaching US$ 890 million. This evolution is due to the fact that most companies are more familiar with the benefits of the cloud and its security capabilities, which has been one of the main points for overcoming fears about this type of application.
With this growth, the role of Cloud Brokers is becoming increasingly important. "By 2018, 85% of environments will be multicloud, combining services from more than one public cloud to meet their needs (...) not only because of costs, but also because of the capabilities of each provider," comments Luciano Ramos, also from IDC. "The forecast is that these companies will reach a share of up to 50% of total revenue by 2020."
With this positive outlook, especially in relation to Business Analytics applications and Cloud solutions, EBSDBA continues to strengthen its expertise in BI and Big Data solutions, and in migrations, implementations and maintenance of the most diverse cloud infrastructures, as a certified Oracle, AWS and Microsoft partner.
