It’s nearly time to say goodbye to 2012 and welcome a new year. What better time to look back at all that was accomplished in the past 12 months and think ahead at how those accomplishments might impact our future? At Red Hat, we enjoy reflecting on the state of our business and industry each year by putting thoughts down on paper, and next week we’ll be publishing a series of “predictions” blog posts from folks throughout Red Hat, including members of the executive team, business unit leadership, and product line directors.

Stop by next week to see what our team has to say about trends in big data, mobile, cloud, DevOps and more! Do you agree, or did we miss anything? Drop us a note at press@redhat.com to let us know what you think.
