The inevitability of Big Data
A GROWING TORRENT
Just how big is big data? Huge, and with the
potential to expand even more in the future
EXPLODING DATA
WHAT IS BIG DATA?
Volume: approaches or exceed
physical limits of vertical scalability
Variety: many different formats that
make integration expensive
Velocity: decision window small,
compared with data and/or data
requirements change rate
Variability: many options or variable
interpretations that confound analysis
The amount of digital data in our world has been
exponentially growing in just a few short years.
Big data has the potential to become the next
frontier for innovation, competition and profit.
