The volume of data available to enterprise organizations grows larger every day. Alongside this growth, more and more tools, processes, and services are being introduced to meet the demand for data analytics and artificial intelligence (AI) solutions. Whether seeking to improve operations, optimize spend, or pursue new lines of business, government agencies and large companies alike are eager to leverage the latest technological advances to derive critical insights from data.
So, how can your organization benefit from these trends and accelerate the development of analytics and AI? It all starts with your approach to data.
Driving Analytics Success
Data analytics is more than simply “running numbers.” It is a multi-phase process which requires diligence and skill at every step. After mapping and collecting data from multiple sources, organizations must determine the right platform to meet their storage needs—whether a data warehouse deployed by a cloud service provider, a hybrid solution, or a private deployment model. From there, data must be cleaned up, prepared, and structured for analysis. Only then can data scientists begin to query the data in order to uncover valuable insights.
The phases of analytics can be characterized as data acquisition, data engineering, data science, and data consumption. Organizations can falter in any of these steps. They can fail to map the data correctly, conflate the business problem and misapply analytic solutions, or fall into the mire of analysis paralysis. While some companies may employ an internal team to perform in-house analysis, others turn to trusted solution providers like ECS who bring the experience and proven capabilities to meet their data analytics needs.
