The Top Big Data Technologies 2020

From natural language processing to augmented analytics, we examine five key data technologies anticipated to shape 2020.

Augmented analytics refers to the use of AI and machine learning to help with data insights and preparation.

NLP allows an easier way to ask questions about big data and receive valuable insights. Conversational analytics takes this further with verbal answers.

With data growing at a fast pace and technical skills in short supply, there is a need for organisations to automate data management.

Machine learning and AI are currently dominated by open source platforms.

Blockchain provides transparency for a complex network and the lineage of transactions and assets.

Organisations need to identify technology trends and prioritise them rather than reacting to new technologies as they emerge.
