Repositioning IT services for a digital future
In this session, I learned a little bit about the background in the profession surrounding IT consulting from a seasoned professional in Mr. Desai who is the founder of Emtec. Inc. He broke down the levels to the bulk of his work into three parts: Data Science/Cybersecurity, Consulting/Oracle/SAAS, and the end-to-end. He informed us about the importance of his position to truly understand and make light of the business model. In layman terms, his job was to look at a portfolio and see the ways we can be helpful using the technology/skills developed in majors like MIS. Another interesting discussion was regarding the impact of legacy technologies and the push to evolve from them. There are a few prominent legacy technologies still in place, but with the constant growth of new technology, the older systems have many constraints that cannot be solved without newer technology. A key player in this is the Cloud.
