IT Operations Analytics In the fields of information technology and systems management, IT Operations Analytics (ITOA) is an approach or method applied to application software designed to retrieve, analyze and report data for IT operations. ITOA has been described as applying big data analytics to large datasets where IT operations can extract unique business insights.[1][2] In its Hype Cycle Report, Gartner rated the business impact of ITOA as being ‘high’, meaning that its use will see businesses enjoy significantly increased revenue or cost saving opportunities.[3] By 2017, Gartner predicts that 15% of enterprises will use IT operations analytics technologies to deliver intelligence for both business execution and IT operations.[2] Definition[edit] History[edit] Due the mainstream embrace of cloud computing and the increasing desire for businesses to adopt more Big Data practices, the ITOA industry has grown significantly since 2010. Applications[edit] Types[edit] Tools and ITOA Platforms[edit] See also[edit]

Machine Learning Repository Data Visualisation: What's the big deal? | Career and Hiring Insights | Aquent The concept of using pictures to understand complex information — especially data — has been around for a very long time, centuries in fact.

It also included detailed information like temperature and time scales, providing the audience with an in-depth understanding of the event. However, as with most things, it’s technology that has truly allowed data visualisation to take the stage and get noticed. It’s no surprise that with big data there’s potential for BIG opportunity (someone pass me the shot glass), but many corporates are genuinely challenged when it comes to: understanding the data they have finding value in it getting the wider business to buy in and just GET IT!!! So how do you tackle this? How do you get people to comprehend this information quickly? One word — INSIGHT.
