More Data, More Value: Using Big Data to Improve the Business of Government

Big data is changing the business of government. Many agencies have turned to a platform-based approach that bundles big data tools like analytics and information management software together. This innovative approach to managing an ever-growing deluge of disparate data, allows agencies to simplify their IT landscape and make the most of their limited budget dollars. Across government, technology is doing the analytic legwork in a simplified approach to big data, putting new and existing data sets to use in real-time. Agencies at the cutting edge are now converging database and application platform capabilities in-memory for even faster results. From detecting fraudulent transactions and streamlining business processes, to improving the experience of its tax-paying customers, analytics is improving the way government does business as well as its bottom line.  Understand collected data in real-time and develop accurate, actionable and efficient insights for equally fast decisions through effective utilization of big data tools.
