global IT spending for 2016 is expected to reach 3,540 billion dollars with a growth of 0.6% compared to 3,520 billion recorded in 2015. The Market analyst firm Gartner, who oversaw the prediction, notes that in 2015 there was the largest drop since spending is monitored IT spending as a whole: 216 billion dollars less than was spent compared to 2014 and spending levels of 2014 will not be exceeded until at least 2016. The forecasts of IT spending by Gartner dashed represent an important indicator of the major technology trends in the areas of hardware, software, IT services and telecommunications.
John-David Lovelock, research vice president for Gartner, notes: “The growth in the value of the dollar is the cause of the results of 2015. Net sales of US multinationals has faced a headwind in terms of exchange , in 2015. During 2016 these strengths will unravel, and they can count on a growth of 5%. ”
Device Market (PC, ultra-mobile, mobile phones, tablets and printers) will see a reduction in spending of 1.9% over 2016. The combination of economic conditions that prevent a return to stronger growth in the markets of Russia, Japan and Brazil, together with a change in expenditure on mobile devices in mecati emerging towards lower-cost overlaps a tablet adoption of weaker than expected in regions where there was an expectation of growth.
ultramobile devices high-end PC market should pull forward, even with the move to Windows 10 and from PCs based on the new Intel Skylake. In the short-term willingness to spend in Europe, Japan, the Middle East and North Africa will remain depressed, but should recover from 2017 onwards, with a stabilization of the economic situation.
Spending on datacenter systems will instead experience a growth of 3% in 2016, reaching a total of 75 billion. The server market is the segment that has seen the most change from the previous forecast, and by virtue of a stronger than expected demand from the segment hyperscale, life even more than expected. Normally this segment has a question quite variable, with peaks of a few quarters before returning to normal. The demand in this segment will continue to remain at a good level but also in the course of 2016.
The deteriorating economic conditions in emerging markets has had little effect on the expected expenditure for the global enterprise software , which in 2016 should reach 326 billion dollars, an increase of 5.3% compared to 2015. However, there are key countries in emerging markets, such as Brazil and Russia, which are facing increasing economic challenges and policies. Companies and companies in these regions will have to balance the needs of cost-cutting along with growth opportunities.
spending on IT services will start growing again in 2016, following a decline of 4.5% over the past year. For 2016, Gartner expects 940 billion turnover with a + 3.1% compared to 2015. This is all thanks to an acceleration in the adoption of cloud infrastructures and a greater acceptance of the cloud model around the world.
telecommunications services instead will see a decrease of 1.2% in spending for 2016, which will reach 1,450 billion. The segment will be hit by the abolition of roaming charges in the European Union and in parts of North America. While this will lead to a growth of voice and data traffic, it will not be enough to offset the revenue lost from the cancellation of roaming surcharges.
