Businesses today face the challenge of organising information that resides in onpremises, disparate siloed data sources that are fragmented and of low data quality. There are barriers to getting value from data Data silos Incongruent data types Performance constraints Complexity of solutions Rising costs As a result, much of the information generated by the business may not provide reliable insights, or remains undiscovered and unused, otherwise known as ‘dark data’. This has a limiting effect on the business’ decision-making, collaboration, forecasting and compliance. It could also impact talent acquisition and retention; having the right people and developing the right skills, competencies and culture supports a data-driven business.
