A recent survey by Unisys Federal shows the increasing importance of big data in both government and business. The survey showed that 46% of government respondents planned to hire outside consultants to help with big data projects. It also showed that many companies are becoming more cognizant of the value of big data analysis for their own business strategic purposes. There is increased recognition that big data is an important component of business strategy.
A significant problem both government and business face is that they do not have the infrastructure to support big data analysis. However, there are cloud-based tools that can do the job and this is where most companies and governments need to go. Big data will lead to a considerable increase in cloud activity over the next few years. For a good summary of the survey findings, click here.
