Enterprise Information Delivery Strengthened with Solid Library of Connectors
February 13, 2013
Now that many organizations have begun to employ big data initiatives we are seeing many more surveys that are examining what stage of the process these companies are at. An article from ReadWrite discusses the results of a survey conducted by Infochimps and SSWUG.org, a community site for IT professionals. “Big Data: Many CIOs Completely Clueless” offers solid insight into what kind of technologies these companies need in order to succeed with their initiatives.
The article states:
The greatest challenge with Big Data is getting at the data trapped in various business applications across an organization, the survey found. Pooling this huge amount of information is necessary in order to run the necessary analytics to find ways to cut costs and run a more efficient business. But before that can happen, all the data has to be converted into a usable format.
Understanding a more complex picture, at a bird’s eye view above the individual enterprise applications, is likely to be much easier when the proper tools are employed. We have had our eyes on one such possibility, PolySpot. Enterprises benefit from the heightened information access and enriched information that comes with a product featuring such a strong library of connectors like this technology offers.
