Introduction
Digital transformation has become a crucial aspect of modern life. With the growing use of smart and
connected ecosystems in our daily lives, it has become more important than ever to understand the impact of this
digital transformation on our economy and industries. In this context, this text explores some of the important
aspects of digital transformation, including the role of Big Data, blockchain technology, and the 4th Industrial
Revolution. It also highlights the irreversible and inevitable nature of digital transformation and the uncertain
processes involved in it. Let's dive in to learn more about this important topic.

Sumary: Digital Trasformation as a new concept

Some authors say that digital transformation is a new topic, and some others say the opposite and claim
that digital transformation is not a new concept we are now in this whole process of using smart and connected
ecosystems in our daily lives, thanks to devices like the smartphones, wearables, smart watches and bands,
others in a home like the virtual assistants, IoT devices like smart lights, vacuums and even the fridge and the
microwave oven. All of these devices make part of the new industrial era where the data has become bigger than
ever, this makes the necessary to create new data analysis methods, here is where the Big Data concept arrived,
and made a new root of computer science by itself, this kind of changes affects the way of the industry works,
companies that understood this changes make a direction change of their business models more focused in the
connectivity and integration of their products in an ecosystem, that the physical products itself. Another piece of
technology that makes a fundamental part of the digital transformation is the blockchain, this technology creates
a revolution in the economic sector thanks to the potential impact in all branches of this sector like banking,
insurance, and trading. In March 2017, the price of one unit of the cryptocurrency Bitcoin exceeded the value of
one ounce of gold for the first time and has since been called Gold2.0 (Vigna & Eisen, 2017). All these tech
trends make the basis of what some authors call the 4th Industrial Revolution. Digital transformation is
irreversible, inevitable, and in some way uncertain, the way it changes the economics and the industry trends
make digital transformation a continuous process that is here to stay, but some of the processes that it involves
are unpredictable for us at the moment, this is because we are still improving and developing technology that
evolves with the digital transformation, and only the time knows when it's finished.

Conclusion
In conclusion, digital transformation has already made its mark on our daily lives, and its impact will only
continue to grow in the future. The use of smart and connected ecosystems has become more prevalent than ever,
and companies need to adapt to stay competitive. The potential of Big Data and blockchain technology cannot be
ignored, as they have the potential to revolutionize industries like banking, insurance, and trading. The 4th
Industrial Revolution is already underway, and those who fail to recognize this shift risk falling behind. While
the processes involved in digital transformation may be unpredictable, its impact on our economy and industries
is certain. As such, it is crucial that we continue to explore and understand this important topic, both as
individuals and as a society.
