EMA Research Report: Big Data Impacts on IT Infrastructure and Management
Abstract: Big data analytics enjoys a great deal of well-earned hype today. The application of advanced analytics to structured, partially structured, and unstructured data can unearth important insights that were previously impossible to find. If used correctly, big data can transform a business in countless ways. This research study by Enterprise Management Associates seeks to understand how big data impacts and transforms IT infrastructure. Not only does this report examine how the collection and analysis of vast amounts of data affects IT infrastructure and IT management practices. It also reveals how IT organizations transform themselves when they start to export IT infrastructure monitoring data to big data environments for advanced analytics. This report shows how big data analytics for IT enhances IT planning, monitoring, and troubleshooting practices and also reveals the types of IT monitoring data that organizations leverage for those purposes. Serving as a guide to enterprises that want to apply big data technology to their IT organizations, this report offers a roadmap not just for the optimization of IT infrastructure and operations, but also for the improved alignment of IT and business. |
