Analytics is all
about gaining insights from the data for better decision making. The business
press is abuzz with examples of leading organizations across the world using
data-driven insights for strategic, financial and operational excellence. A
recent study on “data-driven decision making” conducted by researchers at MIT
and Wharton provides empirical evidence that “firms that adopt data-driven
decision making have output and productivity that is 5-6% higher than the
competition”. The potential payoff for firms can range from higher shareholder
value to a market leadership position.
However, the vision
of delivering fast, interactive, insightful analytics has remained elusive for
most organizations. Most enterprise IT organizations continue to struggle to
deliver actionable analytics due to time-sensitive, sprawling requirements and
ever tightening budgets. The issue is further exasperated by the fact that most
enterprise analytics solutions require dealing with a number of hardware,
software, storage and networking vendors and precious resources are wasted
integrating the hardware and software components to deliver a complete
analytical solution.
