Executive Summary THE DATA DELUGE Investment in data platforms and analytics technologies has been traditionally led by the largest enterprises in markets such as finance, telecommunications and retail. Today, however, data and analytics is seen by startups as a potential driver for disrupting established markets and there is not a company of any size anywhere on the planet that does not engage in data processing and analytics to some degree. The data platforms and analytics sector incorporates all the technologies used by companies to store, process and analyze data that is pertinent to their business. This means providing the data that drives both internal- and external-facing business applications and collecting and analyzing the data generated by a company in the course of its business activities to identify potential opportunities for improvement. As well as traditional applications, this data increasingly comes from emerging sources such as social media and the Internet of Things (IoT). In addition to the core data platforms predominantly operational and analytic databases, but also Hadoop, log management, data grid/cache technologies and event/stream processing this sector also includes the data management and data integration technologies used to prepare the data for analysis. It also encompasses the analytics tools and technologies, including advanced analytics and machine learning, used to generate insight and value from that data. This is a large and lucrative market the combined data platforms and analytics market generated revenue of $69.6bn in 2015, according to 451 Research s Total Data Market Monitor and it is growing thanks in part to the current focus on big data, which has driven a wave of adoption to address unstructured data in addition to existing structured data processing and analytics technologies. The market continues to evolve, with new approaches emerging to more efficiently store and process data and provide access to those that need it to analyze that data and gain business insight.
