Information technology(IT) is the use ofcomputersto store, retrieve, transmit, and manipulatedata,[1]orinformation, often in the context of a business or other enterprise.[2]IT is considered to be a subset ofinformation and communications technology(ICT).Humans have been storing, retrieving, manipulating, and communicating information since theSumeriansinMesopotamiadevelopedwritingin about 3000 BC,[3]but the terminformation technologyin its modern sense first appeared in a 1958 article published in theHarvard Business Review; authorsHarold J. Leavittand Thomas L. Whisler commented that"the new technology does not yet have a single established name. We shall call it information technology (IT)." Their definition consists of threecategories: techniques for processing, the application ofstatisticaland mathematical methods todecision-making, and the simulation of higher-order thinking through computer programs.[4]The term is commonly used as a synonym for computers and computer networks, but it also encompasses other information distribution technologies such astelevisionand telephones. Several products or services within an economy are associated with information technology, includingcomputer hardware, software, electronics, semiconductors, internet,telecom equipment, ande-commerce.[5][a]Based on the storage and processing technologies employed, it is possible to distinguish four distinct phases of IT development: pre-mechanical (3000 BC – 1450 AD), mechanical (1450–1840),electromechanical(1840–1940), and electronic (1940–present).[3]This article focuses on the most recent period (electronic), which began in about 1940.

Information Technology
Information technology relates to data acquisition, information information collection, security, change, exchange, study, design etc. functions and computer hardware and software applications required for execution of these tasks. Information technology is the basis of computer-based information systems. Information technology has become an integral part of commerce and business in present times.
As a result of communication revolution, electronic communication is also being considered as a major component of information technology and it is also called Information and Communication Technology Information and Communication Technology, ICT. It is an emerging sector as an industry.
