A Journey from Big Data to Smart Data

Nowadays Decision is a matter of information (related to the data), knowledge (related to people & processes) and timing (capacity to decide, act and react in the right timing). The huge increase of the data volume, velocity but also format (unstructured data like: blogs, logs, video…) generated by the “digitalization” of our world modifies radically our relationship to the space (in motion) and time (all the time) dimension and by capillarity, the enterprise vision of the performances monitoring and optimization. This paper introduces via three use cases, how the closed loop between Big Data & Smart Data embedded into the business processes can help the enterprises facing this new challenge.
