Big Data: It’s Not How Big It Is, It’s How You Use It
If you are thinking about how this year will shape up, this is a post to keep in mind.
At least its points on “big data” not being as meaningful as your performance with a particular data set in a given context. That may be “big data” in someone’s view but the important point being a particular result with the data, whether it is “big” or “small.”
I am less concerned with the notion that a transition to a data/information economy can be managed. It makes for interesting water cooler talk but not much more than that.
Remember, history is written by survivors, not pre-revolution visionaries.
Be a survivor, use data, big or small, to your best advantage (or that of your client).
