6 Tech Trends I'm Predicting for 2022

View in browser

Hi there,

Articles on technology trends are far more likely to follow the hype cycles being pushed by deep pocket marketing departments and people with financial interests in certain companies than to identify actual shifts in adoption. The noise is overpowering.

Money pours into the hyped areas, which leads to more people developing an interest in seeing those bets succeed, which leads to more hype and a bubblicious cycle. This can be a good thing when the hype is deserved...but sometimes it isn't.

Read the blog for the list of 6 predictions I've made for 2022 plus the three most hyped things for 2022 that lack real substance.

What do you think about these predictions? Did I miss something you think should be included? I'd love to hear from you, and I read every response.

I've also been busy working on educational content around encryption, starting with one of my biggest pet peeves: when people act like "encryption at rest" is meaningful data protection. It usually isn't in the context of servers. Watch my recent (short) video to see just why it drives me nuts.

And finally, a product update: the team has been hard at work building features that will help customers to automate most administrative tasks around on-boarding and off-boarding BYOK customers. Stay tuned for more on that and some related features coming down the pipe.

Until next month,

Patrick Walsh
