Re: Key
@ms.akkineni, good points!  Maybe the realization that new skills are needed, along with the incentives of moving into higher paying jobs, will convince workers there is a better way forward now.

@DHagar:

Absolutely, changing and exciting times for sure.

This is another example that IT workforce need to have both willingness and adaptability to whatever coming along the way. If not we would end up being stale and not needed by organizations.

Re: Not an easy task
Yup, so true.

I believe that is the case with AWS at present. But not do deny AWS is way more promising as it is going.

Re: Key
@ms.akkineni, it could conceivably even change the role of workers and measure their use and contribution to the business intelligence with how they utilize data, share data, and build new intelligence.

These could be even more exciting times!

Re: Updating Processes
@faryl, thanks.  Yes, it should move management decision making further up the supply chain.  Moving beyond processing of data to using it to make operational and strategic decisions.

Re: Not an easy task
@ms.akkineni Several years ago, we were talking a lot more about big data and the impact it would have. At the time there was a lot of talk about a lack of talent in the space. I cannot imagine that has changed by a large degree.

Re: Not an easy task
@faryl:

Exactly. One has to be always willing to understand any bottlenecks that are acting as obstacles for the work getting done and then apply some changes to make things work. Sometimes it doesn't matter if XYZ process had been in use for the past many years, the same may no longer work effectively as per changing needs.

Re: Updating Processes
@faryl, @DHagar:

Agree with you both about how critical data has become in the industry. Companies are already well occupied into data driven intiatives. Many companies now have data teams such as data strategy, data architecture, data quality etc. Data is being considered as a very critical factors to understand the history of their business there by giving them pointers to plan their future strategy.

Re: Key
@DHagar: Thank You.

You made a very good point about 'Business Intelligence' becoming a key metrics for the company. I definitely see that coming. That could be another reason for companies to push themselves into adapting this approach.

Re: Change
One does have to wonder sometimes if vendors are really offering up something that's going to be useful in twenty years. Otherwise, customers will get left with something really expensive while at the same time relatively useless.
