Optimising Volumes of Data to Solve Complex Business Challenges

A relatively new term, big data applies to any vast data set, whether structured or unstructured.  It is larger, more complex data sets, especially from new data sources. These data sets are so voluminous that traditional data processing software just can’t manage them, but investing in working with such massive volumes of data means that business challenges can be addressed like never before.

A key trend in this space is Continuous Intelligence.  This is a unique design pattern in which real-time analytics are integrated into business operations, processing current and historical data to prescribe actions in response to business moments and other events.  It casts a wider net than traditional BI because it incorporates contextual data to understand factors such as market behaviour, social media trends and economic indicators.  It also shortens time to action by linking directly to operational processes, which in turn generates more data to analyse.

Harnessing the power of big data requires an even greater ask of your IT resources.  Skills must be cutting edge, experience relevant and transferrable.  With the speed of change and transformation already underway in many organisations, there is an opportunity to deliver an agile, flexible project successfully by implementing a next-generation resource model.  At Certes, we can support you wherever you are in your transformation journey.  Through IT Agility Ability^TM you can access a hybrid, agile blend of skills and resources to help you deliver the outcomes you need.
