This includes not just the 10% you know about, but the 90% of dark data that hides in information silos. There are big challenges on the path to surfacing all of your enterprise information for business intelligence. The biggest challenge is not in storing data, or in analyzing it, but actually finding the right data. But why is it so hard? Here are the top three reasons:

Dell EMC Embeds the Attivio Platform in its Analytic Insights Module

It's pretty obvious to anyone who follows analytics and Big Data that an end-to-end solution for the Big Data stack will require best-of-breed technologies from multiple vendors.

Key Drivers for Modernizing Your Data Architecture

Are you looking to modernize your data architecture? If so, you’re not alone. According to Gartner, 90% of an enterprise organization’s information is siloed and unleveragable across business processes, meaning it takes too much time to find and understand the connections between data sources.

Needless to say, the demand for a holistic, unified data view is high. 

Do you spend too much time and money trying to locate and understand your data? And do you trust the accuracy of what you find?
