Big Data, Our ‘Hybrid’ Solar Eclipse?

Solar Eclipse 2013Solar eclipse watchers know that Sunday’s ‘hybrid’ solar eclipse comes around only once in 159 years. A hybrid solar eclipse happens when one kind of eclipse morphs into another, according to Mark Sappenfield, a staff writer at the The Christian Science Monitor.

At what other time in history have we seen the morphing of so many different types of data sets? We are in the throes of an accelerated data evolution; “a techno tsunami, an unprecedented convergence of  Big Data analytics, Social, Mobile and the Cloud.”

So what will your organization do with this moment in time?

Some organizations have adopted the ‘wait and see’ approach while others have no plans at all.

But,

Then there are those visionaries.

The ‘Steve Jobs’ of this century. Those that live out the mantra, Carpe Diem!

They refuse to bet on another 159 years.

They believe in the Power of Now.

They are readying themselves for the nectar, the honey, which is the by-product of this massive data convergence.

According to Source Digit, the Big Data market will exceed the $50 billion mark worldwide within the next 4 years.
