The SMAC Stack: The Fabric of Code Halos

http://pixvid.me/smacstackcodehalos Look around and consider the technologies we rely on today: social platforms, smartphones and tablets, analytics and cloud computing. It's hardly news that the impact of these advancements has forever altered the way we live -- and not just on a personal level. They've infiltrated the workplace too, creating an unprecedented and, in some cases, caustic reaction for many proven business models.

To remain relevant, companies need to digitize and virtualize the way they work, updating key processes -- as well as the organizational and financial models that support them -- to keep up with today's information-based markets.

The consumer technology model is now penetrating, and beginning to transform, the corporation in a significant way. This new IT architecture, which we call the "SMAC stack" (for social, mobile, analytics and cloud), is enabling the creation of hyper-intelligent software platforms that address myriad issues, from sales to customer service to the design of new products to the management process.

In short, the SMAC stack does not represent the next new technology to be "bolted onto" your existing business model.

Instead, these technologies will transform the business model itself.

Whether you're a general manager, head of information technology or leading your company's strategy, a decade from now, you'll be asked the same two questions: Did you see this technology based sea change coming? And, once you did, what did you do about it?

The SMAC stack will enable new organizational models, by which the creation of economic value and the foundation of competitive advantage will be based on winning with key knowledge processes.
