Visualising the future business opportunities of Big Data

The future business opportunities of Big Data can be easily visualised if organisations have the right IT solutions and strategies in place. To tap into these benefits, organisations not only need the right internal IT skill sets but also the right storage architecture, analytical tools, and data policies.
 
Organisations can chose from a number of proven storage optimisation options, including compression, archiving, automated data tiering, and deduplication. By utilising storage infrastructure, organisations will be able to establish an IT roadmap for capturing, analysing and exploiting Big Data and turning that data into big opportunities.
 
As stated in a joint Data Optimisation Survey between Hitachi Data Systems and Computacenter, 87% of organisations now have to manage and store more data than they did a year ago.  And 85% say their staff have some problems finding information they need, when they need it.
 
The report explores how IT and business managers are looking to accelerate current analytics activities by using Big Data technologies.
 
Despite Big Data leading to new business opportunities, it can also mean an increase in storage hardware costs. By optimising existing storage assets, organisations will be able to ensure both their IT infrastructure and budget can keep up with the endless flow of terabytes.
