The new IDC Digital Universe study is out, and the numbers are big, real big! With a projected digital universe of 40 trillion gigabytes of data by the year 2020, organizations can expect to face some great rewards —and challenges — in coming months. How your IT organization prepares for these changes — the data it creates, consumes and analyzes; the tools and technologies it invests in; the processes it establishes and the relationships it builds with internal and business teams — will be critical. In fact, for many organizations, the prosperity and longevity of its business will depend on its IT department’s ability to transform itself. So, as we wrap up 2012 and look to the New Year, I encourage you to watch this short IDC video in which IDC analysts John Gantz and David Reinsel discuss the pressures and opportunities the Digital Universe presents and start thinking about your “Digital Universe Readiness Index.” How fit is your organization? How competitive is your business? What’s holding you back? What’s your fitness plan? And let’s chat in 2013, if not before. Happy holidays! |
