Having run a lot of these annual surveys, I can understand how the market focus evolves over time into something that does not quite resemble the title. That does not diminish the value of the response metrics. So my take from the excerpts of IDG’s “2015 Big Data and Analytics” survey is that ‘data driven initiatives’ are more about smart migrations and legacy clean up than ‘Big Data’ IT makeovers. One interesting note is the increased confidence in enterprise security. Security concerns were perceived as one of the largest hurdles for cloud data initiatives in our 2013 eDJ surveys. This feels like progress as on-premise and cloud infrastructure and systems become more mature.
