20. Challenges – ahead
2014-09-11, Copenhagen, Findability Day 2014
Amount of data is growing - rapidly
IDC estimates the volume of digital data will grow
40% to 50% per year. By 2020, IDC predicts the
number will have reached 40,000 EB, or 40
Zettabytes (ZB). The world’s information is doubling
every two years.
New technical platform's
With most new software being built for cloud from
the outset, it is predicted that by 2016 over a
quarter of all applications (around 48 million) will be
available on the cloud (Global Technology Outlook:
Cloud 2014: A More Disruptive Phase).
22. Modular Design Brings Easier Customization
A Limited Number of Building Blocks – Many Variations
Thanks to the modular system Scania can provide a large variety of specifications
which increases the possibility of a great fit between product and application
