Big data is the set of technologies created to store, analyze and manage this bulk data, and identify patterns to design smart solutions.

Advanced analytics tools, like predictive analytics and data mining, help extract value from the data and generate business insights.
According to IDC’s Worldwide Semiannual Big Data and Analytics Spending Guide, the global big data and business analytics (BDA) market had seen impressive growth even before the pandemic, with revenues rising from $122bn in 2015 to nearly $169bn in 2018.
By the end of 2019, total spending on these technologies and solutions jumped to over $189bn. As the COVID-19 continues driving the global shift to digital solutions, total BTA spending is expected to jump above $215bn in 2021. More than half of BDA spending will go towards services. IT services are projected to make up around $85bn, and business services will cover the remainder.
By the end of 2022, global BDA spending is projected to jump by almost $60bn, showing the most significant annual increase so far.
