2020 A year that we would all want to forget
and omit from our lives and move on. Despite the
havoc wreaked by the global pandemic, the one
good thing that has come out this year is the
acceleration of digital transformation across all
the industries, across the world. As most
industry experts believe, the last six months
have seen more progress in the digital
transformation initiatives than the last decade.
With such kind of sudden, tectonic shift toward
digitization, we can only expect it to sprawl
further. The discussion and efforts around
embracing digital transformation have been
ongoing for years now. However, the urgent need
to digitize due to lockdown and remote working
scenario has pushed them into full gear in 2020.
Considering the full-throttle move toward digital
adoption in 2020, we can only expect to achieve
new milestones in terms of innovation and
intelligence in the coming years. As we
approach the end of this year, it is about time
that we talk about how the next year will take
shape considering the digitalization progress in
2020.

Top 3 digital transformation trends of 2021 1.
Hyperconnectivity As per the sci-fi movies of the
last century, we should have attained the state
of hyperconnectivity by now. However distant the
reality may seem from the reels imagination, we
are not that far behind. Especially now, when the
global lockdown forced every individual to
connect with one another digitally. Hyperconnecti
vity essentially means a continuous connectivity
between person-to-person, person-to-machine, and
machine-to-machine. With high-speed internet and
real-time connectivity, person-to-person
connectivity and person-to-machine have become
possible. Digital capabilities are also enabling
organizations to build an always-connected IoT
ecosystem in which machines can talk to one
another. Further, due to the sudden upsurge in
the demand for excellent network strength, all
the 5G initiatives have been put into full gear
in 2020. As a result, what has been in theory so
far can finally be introduced into the practical
usage. 2. Hyperautonomy Hyperautomation was one
of the top trends of 2020, as per the Gartners
predictions at the beginning of this year. This
would stay true in 2021 as well.

Hyperautonomy is a derivative of hyperautomation.
With end-to-end intelligence and digital
automation, machines will become more and more
autonomous, requiring lesser manual
interference. The advancements in the area of
autonomous cars is only one such example that is
going to revolutionize the world of mobility as
well as the logistics sector. Such digital,
autonomous devices prove to be significant in
implementing stringent measures when it comes to
situations like the COVID-19 outbreak. Read Full
