Businesses depend on data more heavily today than ever before. They need data for fact-based decision making (both operational and strategic) as well as to run the business. Many want to deepen their commitment to data-driven processes by competing on analytics and by designing new products and services. Technical teams are under pressure to capture new data and develop its business value.
