WE INSPIRE GREATNESS BY HELPING PEOPLE BRING DATA TO LIFE AS MEANINGFUL INFORMATION

WE ALL WANT TO INSPIRE THE FUTURE

“ We could confidently make our next acquisition if we had all the right information at our fingertips.”

“ We could react faster and get the right product to the right places if the right resources were always ready.”

“ We could curb the next pandemic if relevant insights bubbled up from all the available information.”

WITH BETTER INSIGHT

IMAGINE WHAT WE COULD DO

TRANSFORMING DATA INTO INSIGHT

HOLDS THE POWER TO CHANGE EVERYTHING

ALL DATA HAS VALUE

And in the beginning, that was good. But then…

ALL DATA NEEDS TO BE STORED, GOVERNED AND MANAGED

By 2014, there will be 1 billion

applications.

By 2020, there will be 42x growth in data from 2009.

Explosion of data, information, applications, access points and transactions.

ALL DATA NEEDS TO BE STORED, GOVERNED AND MANAGED

Data and information must be managed for insight and innovation in order to drive

strategic and competitive value.

INFRASTRUCTURE CLOUD

This requires: ‒ Quick scale and flexibility

‒ Appropriate resources at an appropriate value

‒ End of over-planning

‒ Abilities no longer limited by technology

Performance Spare capacity

It should be: ‒ Always ready and synchronized

with your needs

‒ Simple to use

MAKES INFRASTRUCTURE DYNAMIC

INFRASTRUCTURE CLOUD

HEALTH CARE USE CASE

Noticing a suspicious illness pattern on rounds, the doctor immediately spins up an internal SharePoint for hospital collaboration and an external message board requesting input.

CONTENT CLOUD

CONTENT INDEPENDENT OF APPLICATION

AND MEDIA

CENTRALIZED GOVERNANCE

MASSIVE SCALABILITY WITH DYNAMIC TIERING

DISCOVERY AND SEARCH

INFORMATION CLOUD CONTENT CLOUD INFRASTRUCTURE CLOUD

CONTENT CLOUD

This requires: ‒ Unencumbered data

‒ Free from application types, versions, formats and time

‒ Structured and unstructured

‒ Respect for intent and policies

‒ Access over time

ENABLES FLUID CONTENT

It should provide: ‒ Intuitively accessible

information

‒ Confidence to share and consume securely

CONTENT CLOUD

HEALTHCARE USE CASE

The doctor searches and shares information among hospitals with appropriate rights. Aggregation is irrespective of applications. Each patient report has a meta tag for the mystery illness with pertinent info and to maintain privacy.

INFORMATION CLOUD CONTENT CLOUD INFRASTRUCTURE CLOUD

INFORMATION CLOUD

It should make use of information “ripples”: ‒ Basis of recombination ‒ Interference points represent

new information ‒ Super-connected, cloud

world means further rippling and more interaction

This requires advanced and new intelligence: ‒ Evolved analytics ‒ Extreme information

management

FACILITATES FAST, SOPHISTICATED INSIGHT

INFORMATION CLOUD

This requires employing organic concepts: ‒ In nature, self-similar

replication is common ‒ Information can organically

beget more information ‒ This is living data

‒ Inherent analytics ‒ Natural inclination to recombine,

replicate and share

It should provide natural interaction with and insight from diverse and dispersed data.

FACILITATES FAST, SOPHISTICATED INSIGHT

INFORMATION CLOUD

HEALTHCARE USE CASE

Analytics, with Google search trends, indicates a possible outbreak in a nearby city. The doctor alerts city officials and preventive action is taken. Then the information self-directs further search and analysis. Alerted results point the doctor to consider applying an old inoculation solution in a new way. Applying this insight, he is able to quickly head off the outbreak.
