The information society has been disrupted over the past decade or so by the emergence of platforms allowing people or processes to interact with a variety of ecosystems. Tourism, transport, commerce and entertainment are directly affected by this change.
The concept of platforms can be found both in services and technologies with the development of cloud computing.
A digital platform connects different parties in specific markets, based on data exchange and processing infrastructures. These two types of platforms are therefore complementary, with service platforms based on technological platforms.
The Digital Platforms major "Technologies and Markets" trains engineers to master both infrastructure technologies (networks, virtualization, "cloud computing") and their associated economic and legal aspects. It provides the technical skills necessary to deploy and/or manage platforms, as well as the methods and tools to implement business models in a regulated framework. Engineers who have followed this theme will thus be able to be actors of the major changes to come in the digital ecosystem.
