Connected World, Disconnected Data
The combination of mobile, social, sensor, wearable and cloud technologies has triggered a deluge of data. More than 90 percent of the world’s data has been generated over the last two years.1 And, with the number of connected devices projected to reach 75 billion by 2020,2 the volume of data accessible is predictable to grow exponentially.
This world of connected devices and digital content presents an enormous opportunity for companies to take advantage of the new data. In a June 2015 report, the McKinsey Global Institute estimates that IoT applications may have a potential economic impact of as much as $11.1 trillion per year by 2025.3 However, businesses have been unable to capitalize on the vast volume of data from the Internet of Things.
