Analytics, big data, and the Industrial
Internet of Things are the future, but managing them can place
conflicting demands on an enterprise. A new 4-minute survey from

are the most important to you. Respondents will receive an
exclusive report of the key findings to help you optimize how your
organization spends its analytics budget. Survey responses are only
used in aggregate and will remain anonymous and confidential. To participate, click here.

Integrating and transforming data for
business decision making has always been complex and resource
intensive. The industry move toward cloud, mobile, and big data
technologies makes this task even more difficult given the
heterogeneous nature of the many systems involved. This
heterogeneity coupled with the need to make faster and near-real-
time decisions is pushing organizations to modernize their data
integration frameworks.
