1. EXECUTIVE Overview
The Digital Generation
is Here

2. Executive Overview2
The Digital Generation, Millennials who have grown
up in a world with pervasive computing, will soon
dominate the workplace, the marketplace, and the
economy. The DigitalGen effect is already here—
creatively disrupting every traditional business
model from manufacturing to dining out. For them,
cloud and mobile computing are computing.
DigitalGen facts are undeniable:
• In ten years Millennials will comprise 75% of
the global workforcei
• By 2016, mobile data will have increased over
18X since 2011ii
• More than 80% of IT employees bring SaaS
applications to workiii
• A majority already use BYODiv
• Internet access over mobile devices has sur-
passed PCs v
With the rise of DigitalGen, companies must act,
in near real-time, to discover and cover new market
opportunities. The traditional data center is not
up to the challenge. For business enterprises to
succeed in the Digital Generation, they need a
whole new way of thinking about their business
models and processes.
How Do You Get There
from Here?
According to Gartnervi
, future business success
will require organizations to take bold actions,
including new business models and new business
processes. To get there, IT and business units
must form a proactive, strategic partnership. The
lines between IT and go-to-market must merge.
Access to data and apps must be effortless, yet
secure. The days of build, set, and forget are over.
But migration to these bolder, more proactive
processes does not require a wholesale rip-and-
replacement of equipment, personnel, or
infrastructure. What’s needed is a clear vision for
implementing new IT deployment models with a
careful plan for repurposing existing resources.
The quickest way to harness the power of the Digital
Generation is moving resources and processes
to the cloud. A recent Gartner survey reveals
that SaaS applications are now mission critical.viii
It’s no wonder. SaaS-based applications are simpler
to build up, tear down, and repurpose. The cloud
is built for creative, real-time innovation. That’s
why leaders in virtually every market are embracing
SaaS, hybrid IT, and mobile delivery driven by
internal business units with cloud-savvy teams.
