Data is widely recognized as one of the most important resources in a rapidly evolving digital economy. Understanding how future trends will shape your field in order to efficiently harness the power of data is one of the biggest assets for any professional planning ahead. In this context, the latest Data Discovery Market Report offers valuable insight into the industry.

The State of Play in Data Discovery

Data discovery is a key term for business intelligence professionals and refers to the process of identifying patterns and outliers in sets of data. With data discovery, big datasets can be turned into meaningful information according to the desired objectives. For example, you can take location-based data and use a map maker app to create stunning visualizations in the form of maps.

Data discovery is crucial in the context of data classification, which sees data categorized according to format into structured or unstructured, state, and sensitivity across high, medium and low sensitivity levels. It is also pertinent for big data applications, since every industry is striving to find ways to put immense volumes of information to good use.

This figure takes the new internet of things developments into account, as well as the meteoric rise of smartphones and social media: smartphone users will amount to over 6 billion by 2020, and Facebook sees over 31 million messages sent per minute.
