Re: IDC Big Data Trends
@mpouraryan, most definitely. Reputations take years to develop and can be destroyed in minutes.
There has always been conflict and tension between "quick results" (that mirror progress) and true building and development.
Fortunately, our nation seems to endure these excursions and continues to "build" in the long term.
This article and the reported trends suggests a positive future.

Re: IDC Big Data Trends
I believe @DHagar we're on the same page--unfortunately, the current mentality is not to create a sustainable strategy--but impose a will that is not sustainable as everything seems to be "chop chop"...destroying is easy--building is hard--isn't it?

Re: IDC Big Data Trends
@mpouraryan, I clearly understand alternative views and in no way am defending the actions - just explaining the various views of those who share that belief.
My view is that sustainability requires economic progress that benefits the individual members of society and creates organic growth; otherwise you are feeding a zero-sum game that supports only winners-losers - which is not sustainable.

Re: IDC Big Data Trends
I will remind you that even Adam Smith himself noted that the invisible hand had to be guided. But what I hope you and the community agree that it is critical that we do not "wait" for guidance or regulations and continue to push on transformation. It will not be easy--because the giants seem to have the "ear" of the current crew in Washington. True competition and transformation entails a profound commitment to a level playing field. That seems not to be in the cards.

Re: IDC Big Data Trends
@mpouraryan, if you are looking at what is working, that is great logic. If you are wanting to change and reverse courses (ie de-regulate for rapid company development and profitability in use of internet), you will step in and make change, which appears to be the current direction.

Re: IDC Big Data Trends
@mpouraryan, thanks!
To your point, however, if you recall there was great controversy that "regulating" access for all consumers would diminish the "new frontier" development opportunities for service providers and inhibit future growth. So I believe this is where the current Administration is going back to that view - only a bit more strident and focused.

Re: IDC Big Data Trends
You are very kind and gracious as always. But it seems to me that maintaining a level playing field should be at the heart of transformation--I \am not sure why that is such a problem for the current FCC crew?

Re: IDC Big Data Trends
@dcawrey, very true. Companies have to adjust to the growing technology demands to capture and store the data - but then figure out which data is of value and then begin to find ways to "digest" the data and deliver it in usable forms to the decision makers. This is a hugh transformation.

Re: IDC Big Data Trends
@mpouraryan, clearly there are different views. Your comments are well informed and thoughtful. It is interesting to note how many differences there are in whether people view this as a right, commercial channel, development and innovation capability for the nation, etc. - which seems to direct the way they respond.
Clearly the net neutrality regulations hae been highly controversial from the beginning and seems to pit the access to consumers vs. major service providers - not a fair fight.
I doubt he will back down from this view. I fully believe there are better ways to protect the c onsumer and access without inhibiting the innovation capabilities of companies to profit from research and development. I think we have not yet come up with the right answers and need to go back to the drawing board - but I doubt that will happen.
