In recent years, growth in digitization and networking process within enterprises has led to the production of large amounts of data that are permanent. Big data is helping shape a better future for businesses by analyzing and interlinking these reservoirs of data. In a quest for fast and approachable solutions, most modern-day organizations are adopting technologies that enable faster queries. Demands for data lakes, self-service analytics platforms, and high-variety information assets have set big data solution providers toward the path of making data available for faster and easier exploration.
Data privacy, data security, data ownership, and inadequate analytical or technical expertise in employees rank high in the list of challenges that companies in the European market face.
