* Excerpt from: Data Strategy and the Enterprise Data Executive: Ensuring that Business and IT are in Synch in the Post-Big Data Era by Peter Aiken & Todd Harbour
Data Is Not the New Oil!
-
After one uses it, one must get more oil to obtain additional value, and
-
When that oil is gone, one must replenish the supply
-
There is little concept of reuse relative to oil and its use
-
Better to think of data as soil, treat it well and it will produce value for years!
