Abstract

Kavramlar bazen çok iyi nedenlerle farklı kişilerce farklı anlamlarda kullanılabilmekte ya da anlamları zaman içinde değişebilmektedir. Dünya bilgi - bilişim çağı olarak da adlandırılan bir dönemden geçmektedir. Bilginin yaratılma, toplanma, saklanma, işlenme, iletilme yol ve yöntemlerinde analogdan sayısala bir dönüşüm olmuştur. Otomasyon, nesneler interneti, dijitizasyon, dijitalizasyon, dijital dönüşüm, bilgi sistemleri, bilgi işlem, bilişim günümüzde sık kullanılan, ekonomi ve toplum üzerindeki etkileri yüksek sözcüklerdir. Bunlardan dijitizasyon, dijitalizasyon ve dijital dönüşüm sıklıkla biri diğeri yerine kullanılabilen, ara sıra uygunsuz ya da yanlış anlamlarda kullanılan üç kavramdır. Bu üç kavram için literatür ve günlük konuşma dilinde bir kavram kargaşası vardır.
Çalışmada insanlığın zaman içindeki teknolojik birikimine, yıkıcı toplumsal dönüşümdeki etkili bilgi keşiflerine göz atılmış, dijitizasyon, dijitalizasyon ve dijital dönüşüm sözcüklerinin anlam ve tanımlarına yönelik literatür taraması yapılıp bulgular sunulmuştur. Kavramlar arasındaki kargaşanın giderilmesine destek amaçlı; dijitizasyon, dijitalizayon ve dijital dönüşüm aralarındaki farklar tartışılıp, belirginleştirilmeye çalışılmıştır. Son olarak dijital dönüşümün ekonomi ve toplum üzerindeki etkileri ile dönüşümde stratejinin önemine değinilmiştir.

A DISCUSSION ON CONCEPTS OF DIGITIZATION, DIGITALIZATION, DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION

Abstract

Concepts are sometimes used in different ways by different people for very good reasons or their meanings can change over time. The world is going through a period that is also called the information age or computer technology or sciences era. There has been a transformation from analog to digital in the ways and methods of creating, collecting, storing, processing and transmitting information. Automation, internet of things, digitization, digitalization, digital transformation, information systems, computing, informatics are frequently used words in this era. Nowadays digitization, digitalization and digital transformation are the prominent concepts which are sometimes used interchangeably, instead of one another. In addition these three concepts can occasionally be used in inappropriate or misleading meanings too. There is confusion in the literature and colloquial language for these three concepts.
In this study, firstly, a historical view is taken to the technological accumulation of humanity, in other words, the knowledge discovery leading to disruptive social transformations over time were examined. A literature review was conducted on the meaning and definitions of the words digitization, digitalization and digital transformation and the findings were presented. Later, to support the elimination of confusion between concepts, digitization, digitalization and digital transformation are discussed and the difference among them is emphasized. Finally, the effects of digital transformation on the economy and society and the importance of strategy in transformation are stated.
