The value of data


 5.    What is the value of data (including future value)?




Todays wealth lies in data.

There will be 4.8 billion internet users by 2022, up from 3.4 billion in 2017

 

There are a Few Frameworks for Trying to Put a Value on Data

 

James E. Short of The Sloan Management Review, defines data value as the combination of a few types of approaches to determining value:

 

1.     The asset, or stock, value

2.     The activity values

3.     The expected, or future, value 

4.     The prudent value

 

Some facts about the Value of Data:

 

·      Bad data costs the US $ 3.1 Trillion annually.

·      Data investments in the financial services industry will account for nearly 9 Billion in 2018 alone.

·      AI’s impact on marketing is growing, predicted to reach nearly 40 billion by 2025.

·      The salaries of data scientists are rapidly increasing with demand.

·      IoT will save consumers and businesses $1 Trillion a year by 2022

Technical requirements of big data

2.       What are the technical requirements of big data? This data boom presents a massive opportunity to find new efficiencies, detect previously unseen patterns and increase levels of service to citizens, but Big Data analytics can’t exist in a vacuum. Because of the enormous quantities of data involved in these solutions, they must incorporate a robust infrastructure for storage, processing and networking, in addition to analytics software. 1.       Storage Solutions Often, organizations already possess enough storage in-house to support a Big Data initiative. (After all, the data that will be processed and analyzed via a Big Data solution is already living somewhere.) However, agencies may decide to invest in storage solutions that are optimized for Big Data. While not necessary for all Big Data deployments, flash storage is especially attractive due to its performance advantages and high availability.   2. Processing Power   Servers intended for Big Data analytics must have enoug

Limitations of traditional data analysis

 7 .      What are the limitations of traditional data analysis? Traditional statistics is about analysing and summarizing data, and suited to processing lesser amounts of linear, repeatable data to find a solution. It’s very useful in environments where data, and the relationships between the data, are relatively stable. It is still by far the most commonly used methodology and continues to be good for mid to long term forecasting based on prior sales history, where a few hundred or even fewer data points may generate a reasonable forecast. The important limitations of statistics are:   Statistics laws are true on average. Statistics are aggregates of facts, so a single observation is not a statistic. Statistics deal with groups and aggregates only. Statistical methods are best applicable to quantitative data. Statistics cannot be applied to heterogeneous data. If sufficient care is not exercised in collecting, analysing and interpreting the data, statistical results might be misleadi

Traditional data analysis

 6 .      What is Traditional data analysis (descriptive and inferential)?          Traditional data is the structured data which is being majorly maintained by all types of businesses starting from very small to big organizations. In traditional database system a centralized database architecture used to store and maintain the data in a fixed format or fields in a file. For managing and accessing the data Structured Query Language (SQL) is used. 3 Characteristic of Traditional Data: ·        Traditional analytics is static.   Traditional data analytics typically relies on dashboards composed of visualizations. These dashboards are based on common business questions and are predefined well in advance.   ·        Traditional analytics answers “what.”   Traditional analytics answers a series of “what” questions and leaves the user to determine “why” through their own analyses.   ·        Traditional analytics is driven by hypotheses.   Dashboards are typically predefined based on common
