Technology Trends for 2019
In 2018, the growth of artificial intelligence and technologies such as speech recognition, natural language processing and driverless cars continued to emerge more and more onto public domain, with AI algorithms becoming ever more powerful.Cloud computing is growing rapidly with many new services being developed and offered by Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud platforms. This is only a fraction of the activity the technology industry has experienced in 2018, hence this blog looks forward to trends in hot software technologies you can expect in 2019.
