In today’s rapidly changing world, technology plays a big role in shaping the global competitive market. Those companies who do not adapt to this technological change, largely left behind their competitors and thereby make themselves at risk, \u00a0and become irrelevant to their market.<\/span><\/p>\n

There are three factors that are driving today\u2019s business progress, which are the Big Data analytics, cloud computing and the new relationship model that is transforming businesses through both social networks and online relationship with your customers, and through mobility.<\/span><\/p>\n

The IBM in its 2013 annual report outlined the company\u2019s three strategies for the year 2014 \u2013 data, cloud and systems of engagement. The company plans to grow and achieve profit through these mentioned factors.<\/span><\/p>\n

Big Data and Cloud<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

For the last several years, IBM has invested heavily in these areas. To that end, IBM has acquired more than 30 companies including Cognos, SPSS, Varicent, Algorithmics, Vivisimo and The Now Factory; registered 1,000 patents related to this technology; incorporated more than 10,000 consultants and 400 mathematicians the area of analytical business; and invested in the new Watson Group<\/span><\/a>, a new business unit dedicated to the development and commercialization of cognitive innovations in cloud.<\/span><\/p>\n

The cloud computing and big data<\/span><\/a> represent one of the core businesses of IBM. Not surprisingly, according to research presented by IDC, IBM is the market leader of professional cloud technology services in the world. In addition, 24 of the top 25 companies in the Fortune 500 list use the IBM Cloud.<\/span><\/p>\n

IBM says that the world is generating more than 2.5 billion gigabytes of data every day. The market for data and analytics is estimated at $187bn by 2015. To capture this growth potential, IBM has invested more than $24bn, including $17bn of gross spend on more than 30 acquisitions. Two-thirds of IBM Research\u2019s work are now devoted to data, analytics and cognitive computing<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Social Network and Mobility<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Social networks, internet and new smart mobile devices have created a new model of relationship between companies and their employees and end users. IBM offers a wide range of social software. Today, more than 60% of Fortune 100 companies have chosen IBM social software.<\/span><\/p>\n

On the other hand, the other component technology that is driving the new relationship is mobility. IBM has made \u200b\u200b10 acquisitions related to mobility for the past four years, among which were Tealeaf and Worklight.<\/span><\/p>\n
