The year 2026 is no longer about who innovates the fastest, but rather who uses technology most intelligently, securely, and transparently. Innovation today is not merely about adoption — it is about understanding, governing, and protecting technology across every layer of the business.
According to Gartner, more than 70% of digital transformation initiatives will involve Artificial Intelligence (AI) as a core driver. Meanwhile, IDC projects global spending on digital transformation to surpass US$3.4 trillion, with nearly half allocated to cloud-based and AI-native operations.
In Indonesia, Virtus Technology Indonesia plays a strategic role in this shift — helping organizations build modern infrastructure, intelligent applications, and resilient systems that emphasize transparency and long-term sustainability.
Below are 10 major technology trends for 2026 that will define the future of digital transformation — and how Virtus becomes part of that evolution.
1. AI Everywhere — The Rise of Generative and Adaptive Intelligence
AI is no longer a supporting tool; it has become the foundation of modern enterprises. Generative AI (capable of creating content, code, and insights) and Adaptive AI (systems that continuously learn and evolve) are now embedded in decision-making, IT operations, and customer experience management.
Virtus supports this adoption by delivering AI-ready infrastructure that enables high-speed data processing, efficient model training, and end-to-end data security throughout the AI lifecycle.
2. Cybersecurity 2.0 — Zero Trust with AI-Driven Defense
Cyber threats are growing more advanced, faster, and increasingly powered by AI. Traditional “detect and respond” strategies are no longer sufficient. The future belongs to Zero Trust architectures, where no user, device, or application is trusted by default.
Virtus provides AI-powered security automation and Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) solutions that continuously learn, adapt, and respond to emerging threats in real time.
3. Application Modernization — Building the Business of the Future
Legacy systems often act as a digital handbrake, slowing down innovation. In 2026, application modernization goes beyond software updates — it involves re-architecting business processes to become agile, scalable, and disruption-resistant.
Through cloud-native and hybrid cloud architectures, Virtus delivers automation, efficiency, and sustainable innovation speed for long-term application modernization.
4. Data Streaming and Real-Time Intelligence
In 2026, delayed data equals lost value. Organizations are shifting toward real-time data streaming, enabling analytics and decisions to happen within milliseconds.
Virtus enables this transformation through real-time data streaming platforms that create continuously moving data ecosystems, powering responsive and adaptive applications.
5. Sustainable IT — Green Data Centers for High-Value Business
IDC reports that while server sales continue to rise, storage growth is slowing — signaling a shift toward AI servers with high computational demands. This creates a new challenge: maintaining energy efficiency amid rising power consumption.
Gartner predicts Sustainable Technology will remain a top priority through 2026. Virtus addresses this by delivering Green Data Center solutions with high energy efficiency, intelligent cooling systems, and renewable energy support — enabling high AI performance without sacrificing sustainability.
6. Network Transformation in the AI Era
As networks become more complex, speed and security must operate as one. The integration of AI and SD-WAN (Software-Defined WAN) creates networks that are faster, automated, and secure by design.
Virtus delivers AI-driven SD-WAN solutions that provide full visibility, predictive traffic analysis, and real-time performance optimization.
7. Edge Intelligence — Bringing AI Closer to Users
Not all data needs to be sent to the cloud. Edge computing processes data directly at the source — in factories, retail locations, or IoT devices such as CCTV systems and Interactive Flat Panel Displays (IFPDs) — reducing latency and enhancing privacy.
Virtus combines intelligent collaboration tools and compute solutions to create distributed AI systems that are fast, efficient, and scalable.
8. AIOps — Autonomous IT Operations
Hybrid IT environments are increasingly complex, and manual problem-solving is no longer sustainable. AIOps (Artificial Intelligence for IT Operations) enables systems to detect, analyze, and resolve issues automatically.
Through modernized Security Operations Centers (SOC), Virtus helps organizations transition from reactive IT operations to proactive and predictive models.
9. AI Observability and Model Governance
As AI adoption grows, so does the need for trust, transparency, and compliance. AI observability ensures models remain accurate, ethical, and aligned with regulatory standards.
Virtus provides GRC (Governance, Risk, and Compliance) solutions that monitor AI model performance, data pipelines, and bias risks in real time.
10. Human-Centered AI — Ethics and Values in Automation
Powerful technology is meaningless without responsibility. The next phase of transformation requires balancing automation, ethics, and human values.
Through its Security Awareness Platform, Virtus helps organizations build ethical AI frameworks, protect sensitive data, and cultivate strong cybersecurity awareness across all levels.
