From their website:
The Big Data technology and services market is one of the fastest growing, multi-billion dollar industries in the world. This market is expected to grow at a 26.4% compound annual growth rate to $41.5 billion through to 2018. Big Data has already become an essential part of our everyday lives. The collection, storage and analysis of enormous amounts of data allows us to track all of our online activity, look up and store our bank statements, shop efficiently, or engage in social media. Big data is also being used by companies to improve customer service, monitor the condition of individuals cars, or contribute to economic development. It has significantly enhanced our day to day lives and this trend will only continue as the capabilities of big data grows in the coming years.
Understanding the business impact of Big Data has been an important component of both our Due Diligence services and CTO Advisory. Please contact us for more.
