Data is undeniably the lifeblood of digital transformation and AI. It boosts creativity, competitiveness, and customer experience when appropriately harnessed. So much data will be created in the next five years that it will be more than double the quantity created since digital storage.

It predicts that by 2025, the world's data would total 175 zettabytes. By 2025, every connected person (about 75% of the entire population) will interact with digital data around 4,900 times per day, or once every 18 seconds.

In 2025, IoT devices will generate over 90 ZB of data. Without the correct tools, it would be impossible to unlock the true value of the data. The day's sessions will focus on data gathering and management solutions for AI and ML applications. This will help participants develop an effective data strategy.

The Hyperconnected World
Technological advancements in communication and networking have revolutionized the way we create, process, and share information. As the number of IoT devices grows, 5G will be critical in making IoT more efficient and successful by allowing massive data transmission in real-time. The data landscape has changed dramatically due to the widespread use of digital technologies, greater use of mobile devices, sensors, and data capture devices. Increasing data quantities, greater network and processor speeds, and data “democratization” will all alter society in profound ways, according to Bernard Marr.

Tracks will discuss trends affecting the future of connectivity, implications of a hyperconnected world, and how data explosion is forcing organizations to rethink their data storage strategy.

Cybersecurity and Threat Intelligence
