To make things difficult, most of the growth is in unstructured data, which is inherently difficult to retrieve. IDC believes this will be gradually overcome in three ways: adding more metadata, automatic classification (eg, face recognition), and by developing access systems that provide structured views of structured and unstructured data. Other key finding of the study include: By 2010, nearly 70 percent of digital data will be created by individuals, but organisations will have responsibility for the security, privacy and reliability of 85 percent of it - compliance again! Corporate data will be accessed by a broader and more diffuse set of users due to mobility, self-service, and supply chain changes. Data growth in nations outside Western Europe, North America and Japan will be 30-40 percent faster than in the mature economies.{moscomment} |
