Techcircle BigData Forum 2014
The world generates one petabyte of data every 11 seconds, which is equivalent to 13 years of consecutive high definition video. Big Data is expected to be a market worth $1 billion in India by 2015, growing at a CAGR of 83 per cent since 2012, according to a Nasscom report. In addition, India’s digital universe is currently growing 67 per cent faster than the US, and is expected to reach 2.9 zettabytes by 2020, accounting for 7 per cent to the total global digital universe. Recently, Big Data firm Cloudera raised $900 million in its latest round of funding, which valued the company at $4.1 billion. The Big Data technology and services market is also expected to grow exponentially, fuelled by the vast volume of data coming from connected devices- making up the Internet of Things (IoT). According to IDC, more than 15 billion devices will be connected to the internet by 2015. With so much happening in the space, how are Indian companies looking at ‘Big Data’ as an opportunity? According to a recent study conducted by EMC, 91 per cent of Indian businesses were aware of the potential benefits of Big Data, but as much as 26 per cent have no current plans to utilise it. Given that a lot of Big Data is about processing unstructured data, is India ready to embrace next generation analytics and shift to true data-driven decision making?
