In Gartner's Positions, Gartner analysts put a stake in the ground on where we stand regarding the top IT issues that our clients face.
Gartner's Positions are designed to:
Drive the market: We identify topics that clients have not yet recognized that will
be incredibly important or disruptive to IT or the business during the next three to
five years.
Follow the market: We evaluate the "big things" hitting mainstream IT to provide a
single, coherent opinion to clients.
Cut through the hype: We set the record straight on topics that are hot or highly
hyped in the marketplace.
The five top topics explored here are all in the middle of the cloud of confusion that surrounds technologies and business models as they move from the realm of early adopters into the mainstream. For each topic, Gartner takes a position that summarizes our view on its adoption and impact.
