Our next issue is out on June 3rd and will feature the following:

Cover story: Whatever happened to?

The technology industry often gets excited about the next big thing and long before some technologies ever hit the market, we are told about how they can transform our lives. We look at some of those technologies that have been hyped-up in recent years and ask if they will ever hit the market or if they were just a pipedream? From fuel cells to nanobots, we look at what the future holds.

Cloud Computing: 12-page supplement

Cloud continues to be one of the fastest growing areas in IT. This supplement will drill-down into some of the key issues that are emerging and ask how the early adopters are coping with them? In particular, we will focus on how many companies are opting for hybrid cloud solutions running alongside legacy systems. We’ll also examine the relative merits of public and private clouds and take an in-depth look at cloud security issues.

Databases

Gone are the days when a database was a software package that you bought in a box. These days it’s all about data warehousing and repositories, federation and open standards. Organisation rather than storage of data is now the focus. The report looks at the latest developments in this arena.

Consultancy

Sometimes an IT project can be too much for an organisation to handle with its own resources. In situations like these, its often time to call in the consultants. We examine best practice in the area, providing expert advice on how IT projects should be implemented and the pros and cons of calling in professionals to manage projects.

Internet and Ecommerce

Getting online is one thing, trading online is another. We look at the steps a business should take to launch a successful ecommerce operation, from choosing the right developer, to assessing how you should process payments, to managing the back office operations needed to make the venture a success.

Security Watch: Email monitoring

Email is one of the primary channels for information entering and leaving your organisations. While most firms realise the danger of email as a conduit for viruses and Trojans, it’s easy to forget the other dangers that surround it, such as the potential for passing inappropriate or illegal content through your company’s networks, or leaking sensitive information to the wrong people.

Mobile Business 2012: Mobile Apps

Smartphones continue to grab an even greater share of the market and while the devices themselves garner lots of the headlines, it’s the software that makes them such a useful business tool. A round-up is provided of the latest apps that could be useful for any business person on the move.

Buyer's guide: Interactive Whiteboards
