Without networks, ‘digitization’ would just be another word for ‘stagnation.’ However, to exhaust all the possibilities presented by upcoming IT technologies, the digital transformation will have to extend to mobile devices, landline networks and much more.

IoT-enabled equipment that connects to the cloud can save the lives of people who work in high-risk professions like firefighting.

The mining and power plant company LEAG uses the ServiceNow platform solution to automatically support its IT processes.

The Lutheran Church in Bavaria, the Bavarian state government and TV broadcaster rbb show how the public sector is embracing digitization.

The insurance company ERGO is linking smart home sensors to its Allysca service portal so that automatic notifications can be immediately sent out to minimize the damage inflicted on homes by pipe or equipment failures.

The future workplace has to meet requirements regarding mobility, flexibility and productivity – and at the same time guarantee secure and simple access.

Digitization depends on a performant network. Which new requirements does this impose on future networks and how is their mode of transmission designed?

Business emails, connected cars, online orderings in webshops, keyword records of social media channels, tracking of location-based data, predictive maintenance based on automated monitoring – an immense amount of data is created during the day. These huge amounts of data provide chances and create new business models – however, only when the information are used and analyzed correctly and moreover when the data is treated responsively.

Digital business models can only be realized permanently when a security architecture is adapted to the transformation processes and considered right from the beginning (security by design). Another crucial factor: effective protection measures.

The cloud remains a hot topic in ICT industry. With different types and technologies it can meet diverse requirements und serves as a basis for IT transformation processes.
