The Emergence of Data Marketplaces - Hortonworks

When we talk about the exponential growth of data in today's digital world, the word "exponential" seems to be such an understatement. In 2017 alone, more data was generated than in the past 5000 years combined, and this will rise tenfold in less than a decade. A significant contributor to that data growth will be IoT. An IDC 2017 report predicts that by 2025, more than a quarter of data created across the world will be real time in nature, and real-time IoT data will make up more than 95% of this. In essence, the need for gaining access to the correct set of data at the correct time and context is very essential to take corrective actions within the opportunity window.
