Big data and cloud development services can be daunting. Technologies, frameworks, platforms, languages and techniques can include Microsoft Azure, Amazon AWS, Hadoop, Amazon Redshift, Spark, Cassandra, Parquet and others. If your internal IT team is undertaking big data and cloud development, the organization may find itself mired in complex collections of technologies.
Twenty years ago, terms like Big Data Solutions and Cloud Migration were alien terms. But, today, every enterprise is knee deep in Big Data and Cloud Development and, if they are not, they are way behind the times and at risk of losing their competitive edge.
Even if you do not work in IT, you have probably heard the term ‘Big Data’. These days, Big Data can cause big problems. If you do not have a plan to manage all that data and to make it easily accessible to your users, the data may as well not exist. If you cannot use that data for predictive analytics, you cannot accurately forecast your business results, plan for growth or compete in the market.
There are a lot of ways to manage, manipulate and store data today and those options can sometimes be confusing. Organizations often get lost when considering the myriad of options for big data and cloud development services.
You may think your business is unique (and it is) but in lots of ways, it is just like mine. Here’s what I mean. Every enterprise, including yours, desperately needs dependable, accurate data to support decisions and planning processes. So, in that way, all businesses are the same. Whether data analysis requirements are ongoing or specialized to support a focused initiative, the challenges of advanced data analytics and data science efforts can be daunting.
In-house IT staffing provides dependable hardware, network, software and project support. But, when it comes to big data and cloud development services, it is often difficult to look to the internal IT team for support. Perhaps the skills required for big data implementation or cloud solutions and services are beyond your team or perhaps your organization simply lacks the resources and time to offer enough support to get the business up to standard and provide an appropriate level of competitive advantage in these new and rapidly changing markets.
