IT in 2020? Comments


Okay, we have this little competition within out University. In which without my concern my teacher gave my name and was selected on basis of my previous Adobe Photoshop made images. We have to make a simple A-4 size poster which should show how would be IT in 2020 Year.

I need bit of comments from the industry here.. I have posted this question at various forums to get as much input data as possible.

Thank You!

I think we're going to have Earth 2.0 by 2020. Carl Sagan did say we need to be a two planet species. As far as the Internet is considered, I'm thinking micro-brainwave servers running Apache Z 4.0 with the uberzoom patch.

The way that overselling is spiralling upwards and out of control, I'd say in 2020 you'll be able to rent 2 dc's for the price of 1 ($5.95 / monthly)

At the very least we'll have reactive self healing globally diversified networks and data systems.

Personally, I think we'll be too busy at war with the Goa'uld to care about IT by then LOL.

(Just a little Sci-Fi humor for the topic).

2020 is a myth. The world will end in 2012 when we realize that we're all in the Matrix and that time is an illusion.
