MIS is evolving rapidly due to new digital technologies. Modern organizations now use cloud platforms, analyze huge data, automate decisions using AI, and collect real-time data using IoT devices. These trends improve speed and accuracy of decisions, but they also create challenges like security, privacy, cost control and skill gaps.
Emerging trends in MIS are new technologies and practices that change how information is collected, processed, stored and used for decision making.
Key trends include:
Cloud computing provides computing resources (servers, storage, software) over the internet on a pay-as-you-use basis.
Characteristics:
Provides virtual servers, storage and networking.
Provides platform for developing and deploying applications.
Provides ready-to-use software through web/app.

Cloud service models:
Thus, IaaS gives infrastructure, PaaS gives platform, and SaaS gives complete software.
Cloud deployment models:
Hence, organizations choose based on security needs, cost and compliance.
A management information system (MIS) is a computer system consisting of hardware and software that serves as the backbone of an organization's operations. An MIS gathers data from multiple online systems, analyzes the information, and reports data to aid in management decision-making.

Big data refers to very large and complex datasets that traditional systems cannot process efficiently.
5V characteristics:
AI (Artificial Intelligence) enables systems to perform tasks that require human-like intelligence such as learning, prediction and decision support.
Applications in MIS:
IoT (Internet of Things) refers to connecting physical devices (sensors, machines) to the internet to collect and share data.
Applications:
Business analytics uses data, statistical tools and models to support decisions.
Types:
Organizations follow a cycle:
Common risks:
Control measures:
Data collection → Storage/Cloud → Big data processing → Analytics/AI → Decision → Feedback

Cloud computing provides on-demand resources over the internet. It improves flexibility but introduces dependency and security concerns.
Conclusion: Cloud is highly useful for modern MIS, but it must be supported by strong security, governance and vendor management.
