This digital wave has been building up for a long time but has taken flight in recent years. The past decade has been an impeccable year for digital technologies as they saw immense growth.

With the advent of smartphones, now the internet is within the reach of millions which has changed the ways people live and work. Companies and people are doing things that would have been impossible a decade ago.

With the insurgence of cloud computing, loads of data have been erupting the data centers. You no longer have to own technologies like servers, operating systems, and applications if you wish to use them.

Enterprise applications, social networks, smartphones, sensors and almost every tool of modern digital ecosystem generates tons of data so much that we need filters to distinguish the data that is needed for our consumption..

This digital data eruption combined with innovations like supercomputers, driverless cars and that innovative stuff Elon musk is working on has clearly challenged the way businesses work, the costs involved and the relationship between people and machines.

It is simply phenomenal to live in an age like this.

The last time there was this much technological innovation happening around was around 300 years ago, it was the industrial revolution that changed the landscape of Europe. Those were days of when machines made like the steam engine empowered commerce, capitalism and human history.

In current times, the innovations in digital technologies has indeed brought us closer towards "a digital revolution."
