Big data: A Coevolutionary strategic roadmap

摘要

In recent years, new IT solutions and services have been appeared. One of the challenging topics in this category is big data. Although there have been tremendous researches in this area, emergence of all characteristics and potential of big data are still in its early stages. Success in big data development requires implementation of strong infrastructure which effectively depends on a multidimensional policy and road map that can cover all the aspects of big data in this era. On the other hand, the macro processing and knowledge extraction have been involved in many complicated challenges and needs a clear and multidimensional development plan. A comprehensive roadmap makes it possible that any business entity and organization discover a new vision for future success through collection and analysis of raw data. We propose a roadmap that concentrates on several strategic areas including research activities, infrastructure and platform, data analysis, standard regulation, application services and eventually business development. The roadmap has a Coevolutionary strategy that players evolve in a parallel model. The evaluation of our proposed road map shows its applicability for developing big data services in both developed and underdeveloped countries.
