Big Data

sehen im Wall Street Journal eine Boomphase kommen, die auf drei Technologien fusst, die in ihren Auswirkungen so wichtig wie Telefonie und Elektrizität sein werden.

1. Technologische Entwicklung: Informationstechnologien und Big Data:

Processing power and data storage are virtually free. A hand-held device, the iPhone, has computing power that shames the 1970s-era IBM mainframe. The Internet is evolving into the „cloud“—a network of thousands of data centers any one of which makes a 1990 supercomputer look antediluvian. From social media to medical revolutions anchored in metadata analyses, wherein astronomical feats of data crunching enable heretofore unimaginable services and businesses, we are on the cusp of unimaginable new markets.

2. Technologische Entwicklung: Smart Manufacturing und 3D-Printing:

This is the first structural shift since Henry Ford launched the economic power of „mass production.“
