Companies are lost in collectingdata and storing data instead

of analyzing data.

technology will enable it.



Be an innovator or the first is the key to being a leader.



More and more data will be produced.90% of world data is produced in

last 2 years. Finding insight is key.

What does a business need to get right about big data?



Many organizations focus moreon collecting and storing data

rather than analyzing data.

organization to provide personalizedservices and products.
