Back in 1982, when people saw the dark and intricate cityscapes of Ridley Scott’s Blade Runner for the first time, many saw a future that was astonishingly advanced, but also unsettlingly familiar. The complex but run-down structures, the ultra-modern but clogged up transport systems and the innovative but scuzzy computer interactions that form the backdrop of Scott’s dystopian vision also underpin a striking metaphor for the modern challenge of cataloging and storing data.
Think about it this way: the further we go, the more technologically advanced our computers get, the more developed our society becomes, the more data we create. This hyper-progressiveness might seem natural and welcome, but in fact it portends a deeper, hidden more sinister edge – much like the way the Tyrrel Corporation operates.
In the same way that Deckard (the Harrison Ford version, natch), navigates through the neo-noir meandering streets of a futuristic Los Angeles looking for replicants, many enterprises today are also stabbing in the dark, trying to plot their way through increasingly complex landscapes of dense and often useless, information.
Navigating a Data Metropolis
In today’s data-driven landscape, organizations are flooded with information from various sources and directions. Not only that, but it is usually spread across several applications and geographies, making it difficult to interpret and slow to utilize. Discovering how you can organise this data into a coherent map that your enterprise can gain the most out of is no simple task.Â
It’s essential that you explore the options of careful planning and strategic alignment, as well as the technological know-how to install and deploy in a rapid timeframe that your company needs.Â
