TRENDS 2021: NEW STANDARDS SPEED UP DEVELOPMENT OF SOLUTIONS REQUIRING HIGH COMPUTING PERFORMANCE AND MAXIMUM DEGREE OF SECURITY

Hannes Niederhauser, CEO S&T AG, whose exclusive distributor is RTSoft, spoke about the trends of 2021.

“COVID has changed the world and has given additional impact to digitalisation in many areas. This is especially true in the industrial sector. Manufacturing processes have also changed. The trend to locate production in Asian offshores was replaced by the trend to return production to Europe. Naturally, given the high degree of automation based on modern technology, says Hannes Niederhauser. - By 2025, about 75 billion devices will be integrated into the Internet of Things (IoT) and the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). Leading market research institutes forecast this market to grow 31 percent annually. Thanks to the development of the Internet of Things, huge amounts of data are generated around the world that must be reliably, quickly and securely evaluated and distributed. "

In an article published on the RTSoft webpage, Hannes Niederhauser, also highlighted the defining areas of technology development for 2021: predictive maintenance, high-performance computing (HPC) / artificial intelligence (AI), support for the latest communication and network technologies 5G and 10G PON, providing functional safety (FuSa) and SDC compliance in the medical sector.
