It’s prediction season, and one trend is clear—AI, edge computing and network transformation are no longer experiments: they’re business imperatives. Leaders aren’t chasing hype. They demand real outcomes. At GTT, we’re focused on delivering networking and security solutions that fuel growth, resilience and innovation. In 2025, we expect: - Real-time AI-powered security and Zero Trust frameworks to become essential. The C-suite will see security not just for compliance, but as a strategic business enabler—prioritizing proactive, adaptive resilience over reactive defenses. - DeepSeek to represent a seismic shift in how AI is consumed. With AI requiring less cost and energy, distributed enterprises will double down on AI that optimizes network performance, proactively detects and mitigates threats, cuts operational costs and enhances experiences—moving beyond experimental use cases to measurable outcomes. - Network-as-a-Service (NaaS) to become a strategic imperative. NaaS will evolve beyond on-demand models, shifting the burden of capital investments to providers and leveraging more cost-effective shared infrastructure. Businesses will rapidly adopt truly flexible, on-demand networking and security services to gain greater agility, scalability and cost efficiency via a dynamic OpEx model. The C-suite will increasingly favor this approach to thrive in today’s fast changing markets. - Edge, satellite, 5G and local compute to drive real-time business innovation. AI, IoT and distributed workforces will require ultra-reliable, low-latency networks that extend to the edge. By processing data closer to users and apps—with built-in security and seamless cloud integration—enterprises can unlock automation, react faster with real-time insights and introduce new business models. While the required apps remain uncertain, the need for an adaptable edge infrastructure is undeniable—all AI and data-driven innovation will rely on it. To stay ahead, businesses will future-enable their infrastructure, preparing for the unknown opportunities and demands of tomorrow. - Telcos to retrench and reinvent. Legacy providers will continue to retreat, divesting non-core assets and cutting costs, while others follow the path already paved by providers that have long recognized that connectivity alone isn’t enough—doubling down on cloud, security, and AI-driven services. The winners will be those that have built integrated, platform-based offerings, and are already delivering the secure, high-performance networks businesses need with corresponding robust, in-house technical support and professional services. Looking back at 2024, I’m proud to say we helped businesses stay connected and secure in an increasingly complex world. In 2025, we’ll continue delivering intelligent, high-performance networks that make innovation possible. Here’s to another year of connection, achievement and Greater Technology Together. #AI #Predictions #NaaS

Embedded AI/ML is quietly transforming how we build systems. Here are four trends worth watching: Edge AI We’re moving away from cloud dependency. AI processing is happening closer to the source. For better privacy and faster, real-time decisions. TinyML Machine learning models are shrinking. What used to need serious hardware can now run on ultra-low-power devices. That opens the door to smarter sensors and always-on intelligence. AI for IoT The integration of AI in IoT devices is pushing the industry forward. It’s not just about connectivity anymore. It’s about devices that adapt, optimize, and make smarter decisions on their own. Automotive AI AI in vehicles is evolving fast. From better sensor fusion to more reliable decision-making, embedded AI is becoming central to the safety and performance of autonomous systems. These aren’t just passing trends. They’re signals of where embedded development is heading next. What do you think? Where do you see things going? Comment below!

IoT devices deliver real-world, real-time operational data, allowing corporate transformation in AI as the connected devices provide critical information for AI training and inference, so they use their data to automate and optimize physical activities. According to IoT Analytics' State of IoT Summer 2024 report, 16.6 billion IoT devices were connected in 2023, up 15% from 2022. IoT Analytics predicts 13% growth to 18.8 billion by 2024. Despite the macro concerns, 51% of enterprise IoT users want to increase their budget in 2024 (22% expect a 10%+ increase from 2023). Giesecke+Devrient (G+D) highlights five trends in the future fusion of IoT and AI. 1. AI and ML are set to revolutionize IoT, creating intelligent systems that can adapt and learn. AI/ML is revolutionizing IoT. By processing massive volumes of data, AI enhances predictive maintenance and energy management in #IoT applications. The analytical power of AI, combined with IoT's data collection and monitoring capabilities, creates an ecosystem that provides better operational insights. This integration makes IoT systems more innovative and responsive. 2. Edge computing enhances IoT. Edge computing processes or preprocesses data near the source, decreasing automobile data delivered to a central data center—real-time applications like manufacturing automation benefit from edge computing's low latency. The growth of #5G networks will boost device connectivity and data processing speed. AI and #ML integration with edge computing is predicted to improve, allowing edge devices to make sophisticated decisions independently. 3. Blockchain secures IoT devices. #Blockchain is playing an increasingly significant role in IoT security. As IoT devices handle sensitive data and its integrity, blockchain's decentralization and ability to verify data transactions are crucial. Blockchain can help protect IoT from growing cybersecurity threats, ensuring the data's security and integrity. 4. SGP.32 streamlines IoT management. The GSMA introduced the remote SIM provisioning specification SGP.32 in May 2023. This specification eliminates needing Wi-Fi or Bluetooth connectivity when commissioning an IoT device. In SGP. 32, a faster and more stable IP-based protocol replaces SMS-based communication. This allows devices to receive SIM login info and settings over the air, simplifying IoT SIM profile loading, activation, and management. 5. IoT is not just about technology; it's about driving sustainability across sectors and positively impacting the environment. Finally, IoT will drive sustainability across industries. Modern, energy-efficient sensors and #AI enable precise resource management monitoring and control.
