The Hype Cycle for Cloud Computing, 2012 is shown below:Ĭloudwashing and Inflated Enterprise Expectations

Those enterprises that look to cloud platforms only for cost reduction miss out on their full potential. Leading with a strategic framework of goals and objectives increases the probability of cloud-based platform success.
Gartner cautions however that enterprises are far from abandoning their on-premise models and applications entirely for the cloud.īased on an analysis of the Gartner Hype Cycle for Cloud Computing, 2012, the best results are being attained by enterprises that focus on a very specific strategy and look to cloud-based technologies to accelerate their performance. Looking more than 10 years out, 3D bioprinting, human augmentation, mobile robots and quantum computing will also drive transformational change in the potential of IT.Enterprises are beginning to change their buying behaviors based on the deployment speed, economics and customization that cloud-based technologies provide.

In the long term, beyond the five-year horizon, 3D printing, context-enriched services, the “Internet of Things” (called the “real-world Web” in earlier Gartner research), Internet TV and natural language question answering will be major technology forces. Transformational technologies that will hit the mainstream in less than five years include highly visible areas, such as media tablets and cloud computing, as well as some that are more IT-specific, such as in-memory database management systems, big data, and extreme information processing and management. Mobile technologies continue to be part of most of our clients’ short- and long-range plans and are present on this Hype Cycle in the form of media tablets, NFC payments, quick response (QR)/color codes, mobile application stores and location-aware applications.” Private cloud computing has taken over from more-general cloud computing at the top of the peak, while cloud/Web platforms have fallen toward the Trough of Disillusionment since 2010. “On the social media side, social analytics, activity streams and a new entry for group buying are close to the peak, showing that the era of sky-high valuations for Web 2.0 startups is not yet over. “Themes from this year’s Emerging Technologies Hype Cycle include ongoing interest and activity in social media, cloud computing and mobile,” Ms. “It is the broadest aggregate Gartner Hype Cycle, featuring technologies that are the focus of attention because of particularly high levels of hype, or those that may not be broadly acknowledged but that Gartner believes have the potential for significant impact.” “Hype Cycle for Emerging Technologies” targets strategic planning, innovation and emerging technology professionals by highlighting a set of technologies that will have broad-ranging impact across the business,” said Jackie Fenn, vice president and Gartner fellow. The “Hype Cycle for Emerging Technologies” report is the longest-running annual Hype Cycle, providing a cross-industry perspective on the technologies and trends that IT managers should consider in developing emerging-technology portfolios (see Figure 1).
The Hype Cycle Special Report is updated annually to track technologies along this cycle and provide guidance on when and where organizations should adopt them for maximum impact and value The Hype Cycle graphic has been used by Gartner since 1995 to highlight the common pattern of overenthusiasm, disillusionment and eventual realism that accompanies each new technology and innovation. Gartner’s 2011 Hype Cycle Special Report provides strategists and planners with an assessment of the maturity, business benefit and future direction of over 1,900 technologies, grouped into 76 distinct Hype Cycles. Hier ein Auszug aus der Pressemitteilung von Gartner Research: Im diesjährigen Report wirds realistisch: »cloud/Web platforms have fallen toward the Trough of Disillusionment since 2010.« Der Durchbruch blieb aus vielerlei Gründen aus. Nicht immer lag Gartner mit der Beurteilung der Chancen einer Technologie richtig: So wurde professionelles Cloud-Computing seit Jahren als einer »der« Trends bezeichnet. Gartner’s seit 1995 jährlich veröffentlichter »Hype Cycle Special Report« soll eine branchenübergreifende Perspektive auf die Technologien und Trends bieten, die IT-Manager bei der Entwicklung von Technologie-Portfolios in Betracht ziehen sollten. Gartner hat den Hype Cycle für 2011 vorgestellt.
