Inside Big Data: Change is the only constant
By Puja Sharma
Data will change faster and more frequently than ever before. Technology is helping companies use data to deliver products and services that make life more convenient, and that’s becoming increasingly valuable.
According to Big Data Industry Predictions for 2022 from Inside Big Data, a big change in 2022 will be… change. Data will change faster and more frequently than ever before. It will no longer be acceptable to analyze massive amounts of static data once per month, once per week, or even once per day. Organizations will need to glean insights from streaming it in real-time to find new patterns and discover and act on them.’
The world has entered a new age where everyone and everything with a digital presence generates data. Technology is helping companies use it to deliver products and services that make life more convenient, and that’s becoming increasingly valuable. The online trend has only been accelerated with Covid-19 due to everyone spending months at a time on the couch at home with just a computer for the company.
Big data is mostly human-generated. Forty exabytes of data is produced every month by a single smartphone user. The current estimate on the number of smartphone users in the world is 10.47 billion connections– which is approximately a couple of billion more than the population of the world.
Forrester forecast reported mobile’s share in US online retail and travel commerce will increase from 36% in 2018 to 45% in 2024. Deloitte’s report for Facebook back in 2017 was already describing the amount of data being generated by individuals through these interactions as “expanding exponentially as a result.”
Companies that will drive this change in 2022
