Democratization of Technology

The term democratization is derived from the word democracy. Like in a democracy, everyone has equal rights and responsibility, similarly, the democratization of technology refers to the easy access of technical domain to everyone, irrespective of their profession and place.

Gartner asserts four key aspects of the democratization of technology trend that will make it big in 2020:

• Application development
• Design
• Knowledge
• Data and analytics

The best example of democratization can be credited to the developers, who will be able to generate data models without learning the skills of a data scientist.
 
However, there is still concern about the future use of this latest trend in information technology because it will also enable people to exploit easy-to-use tools, which may pose harm to society.
