Computing has evolved exponentially in recent years and so has the computing power. Those responsible for this evolution are the IT professionals. They have played an important role in the development of computing throughout. If PC computing is alive and well today, making the lives of billions easy, it’s certainly because of these professionals.
These individuals build, fix, manage, secure and update the infrastructure regularly. In 1980 for a Seagate 5MB hard-disk drive, you had to plunk down $1500 whereas today you can get a 256GB SSD for far less. Over the years, the role of the IT worker too has changed than what it was at the start of the personal computer era of the 1970s.
