Today I am going to talk about the democratization of big data. Big data, as you know, is a very well known term of great impact today both in technology and in the business environment, and we have to see the origin of big data in digitalization.
We are all digital beings, beings that interact permanently in social networks on the internet, and each of these interactions generates a digital trace.
There were things we used to do that we don't do now, we would go on a trip and we would issue a physical ticket and now this ticket is in an online format, even in a QR code.
We would arrive at an airport and what we would do is look for a book to read, and now we're crazy looking for the wifi to connect.
We even used to take photos of historical monuments and now we take more photos than we can process than we can possibly process and understand in one trip.
Therefore, each one of these interactions generates a digital trail that until now it was technically not possible to analyze.
The growth of the Internet therefore has to do with the growth of the mobile world and with the growth of these interactions. and with the growth of these interactions, but also the future growth will not only be due to the internet, of social networks, of mobility,
but also because of the growth of the interactions of things with each other.
So there are like two internets, the internet of people and the internet of things.
In fact, the exploitation at the level of data volumes that will be managed in the future will have more and more will have more to do with things connected to each other in the future, machine-to-machine interactions,
The internet of things is projected to have more than 26 billion objects connected to the internet by 2026. connected on the internet by 2026 and this along with the interaction of people with the
of people with the digital world will generate an immense volume of information. This is what big data is all about, the ability to manage these huge volumes of information these huge volumes of information of all kinds.
And this is possible today because you have the technology to be able to capture this information so that you can to be able to capture this information, to be able to process it,
to be able to understand it and to be able to act on it.
