Tech Industry in 2020
Introduction
Nowadays Technology is changing very fast, each year some new programming language comes into light as well the previous are going huge technical shifts. Each year some new hot technical fields emerge like blockchain, deep learning, and artificial intelligence are a few of them.
Every tech related person is always curious about what new is going in this tech world. What programing language will be in demand what are the database people’s prefers, people interested in blockchain or not.
But everyone has a personal taste of technology, some prefer Python, some prefer java. Some prefer MySQL while others preferred something else. But what does the data suggest? The technology of tomorrow will be created by the technicist of today. Or On the other hand, the future is generated by the people of the present.
So to find the answers of tomorrow I dive into the data of today. For that, I used data from Stackoverflow’s 2019 Annual Developer Survey.
In 2019 nearly 90000 responses received on a 20-minute long survey from more than 170 countries the survey data include 85 columns means a response of 85 questions is being made public while there are several questions that response is for the quality improvement of StackOverflow. But the important questions are:-
Which programming language, database, or other technology you use?
What new tech you want to learn?
Which type of developer you are and how you work?
Part I: What is the present’s favorite?
For a minute consider you are a newbie in the tech field and you want to pursue your carrier in this and you want to know what to learn so that you can easily get a job in this field. Which subdomain has high job opportunities? But when you asked your friends you got a mixed response. So how you decide which suggestion is valuable.
Here you can see the general trends of programming language, database in 2019. And based on that you can get a brief idea to what are the favorable fields to work on. Also, the work challenges are discussed
It is also a good thing to understand the challanges before diving into the situation. thus the common challanges faced by devlopers are.
also we have to take a note on the required skill set to be profficient.
Part II: future visions of the developer?
Suppose you are a tech gig and want to learn new things but you are not certain what to learn. So you decided to trust on data other than peoples opinions because people may be biased. Thus you go through surveys. And collected the people’s opinion and based on that you plot the visuals.
May be someone also wants to switch the job so before quitting the job it is better to know the demanding field.
Part III: are data also biased?
Yes data can also be biased as the opinion of different ages, different genders and people from different places varies very much so I visualize different aspects some of them are here
Conclusion
In this article, we took a look at the present and future of technology and investigate the data biasing according to Stack Overflow 2019 survey data.
We gathered the advice of the masses on the present and future of technology and found that JAVA is a demanding domain and also be in the future. Also, the favorable Database is SQL
We also looked at the different challenges people face at the workplace
Finally, we looked at the bias associated with there opinions based on aspects like gender education levels, etc
The findings here are observational, not the result of a formal study. So the real question remains:
What people favor in 2020?
