Our world is quickly moving toward an analytics economy where data driven insights are having a noticeable impact on business performance and success. Just as the PC, the iPad, and mobile technologies have revolutionized how we interact and communicate with each other, the use of big data analytics is now unlocking new possibilities previously unavailable or even unimaginable. It’s bringing life-saving drugs to market faster, influencing government policies and even enabling Major League Baseball teams to predict and prepare for the next “nasty” fast-ball or cutter.
As we look forward, our Booz Allen analytics team plans to keep busy sharing information, examples of our work and espousing the impact data can have on business across a wide spectrum of government and commercial industry and clients. We’ll participate in the 4thannual Health DataPalooza, Accumulo Summit, Hadoop Summit, Gigaom Structure, INFORMS Big Data, and AWS Government, Education and Nonprofits Symposium ---- and that’s just June!
You’ll want to check this What’s Happening blog frequently for more in-depth information and personal tales of our team’s experiences. We’ll also keep you up-to-date via @boozallen and the Twitter handles of our subject matter experts. This promises to be a big month…and a big year for our big ideas about data science, analytics-driven insights, and performance optimization. Stay tuned!
