Data and analytics now becoming a core business function
SHARE
Data and analytics is shifting to become a core business function, placing it among this year’s top trends according to Gartner.
As organizations accelerate their digital business transformation efforts, business-domain-led D&A, data literacy, smarter data sharing and adaptive governance increasingly play key business roles. D&A has become core to how they serve their customers and optimize business processes and transform business operating models, rather than serving as a secondary activity done by information technology departments merely to support business outcomes.
Gartner anticipates that by 2025, 80% of D&A governance initiatives that focus on business outcomes rather than data standards will be considered as an essential business capability.
