It discusses how companies can define and measure high-impact outcomes and use effectively analytics technology to achieve them. It also looks at the technology needed to implement the analytics necessary to achieve high-impact outcomes—from both analytics tool and technical infrastructure perspective. Also discussed are ancillary, but critical, topics such as data security and governance that may not traditionally be a part of analytics discussions but are essential in helping companies maintain a secure environment for their analytics and access the quality data they need to gain critical insights and drive better decision-making.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePreface vii\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAcknowledgments ix\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIntroduction 1\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart I Strategies to Make Intelligence Pervasive 5\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 1 Achieving High-Impact Outcomes—An Overview 9\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Right Data 11\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Right Technical Architecture and Environment 13\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eOperational Excellence 14\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDriving High-Impact Outcomes with Pervasive Intelligence 15\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 2 New Metrics for Intelligence—Information Yield 17\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eInformation Yield—The Journey from 2D to 3D in Analytics 19\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThree Foundational Steps to Drive Transformation 20\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBig Data and its Impact on Information Yield 22\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eInformation Yield and Pervasive Intelligence 24\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 3 The Cloud—The Foundation for Pervasive Intelligence 25\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eClouds—What’s Best for You? 26\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChoosing the Right Vendor Partner to Help You Fulfill the Promise of the Cloud 27\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Cloud—Not Optional for Pervasive Intelligence 29\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 4 Perpetual Connectivity—Digital Supply Networks 31\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDSNs Defined 32\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDSNs—What They Can Do for You 32\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDSN Challenges 33\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Benefi ts of a DSN Illustrated 34\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDSNs and the Realization of Pervasive Intelligence 36\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 5 Intelligence Analytics and Cognitive Design—The Human Factor in Pervasive Intelligence 37\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWhy Cognitive Design? 39\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePutting It Together 46\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCognitive Design—The Human Factor in Pervasive Intelligence 46\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 6 You Are Only as Good as Your Data 47\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eConsolidate Data 49\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSecure and Govern 49\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Rising Need for a Chief Data Officer 49\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePervasive Intelligence and Data Governance 51\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 7 The Data Security Awakening 53\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eData Security: A Question of Managing Risk 54\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePervasive Intelligence and Data Security 59\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart II Technology to Achieve Pervasive Intelligence 61\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 8 The Evolution of Data Lakes as a Fundamental Part of a New Ecosystem Architecture 63\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChanges in Data Dictate Changes in Storage Technology 64\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eData Lakes and Pervasive Intelligence 67\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 9 Artifi cial Intelligence and Machine Learning—The Future of Pervasive Intelligence 69\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Power of (Artificial) Intelligence 70\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAI in Practice 72\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eMachine Learning—The Star of Artificial Intelligence 74\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eOptimizing Machine Learning Efforts 78\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAI and Pervasive Intelligence 80\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 10 Analytics Operations to Enable Pervasive Intelligence 81\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eOperationalizing Analytics 82\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eEmbedding AnalyticOps Throughout the Organization 86\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 11 Intelligent Clouds—Combining the Cloud and Analytics to Realize Pervasive Intelligence 91\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Intelligent Cloud 92\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Benefits of Intelligence 92\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePervasive Intelligence via the Intelligent Cloud 94\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eConclusion 95\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIndex 97\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAnu Jain\u003c\/b\u003e joined Teradata in 2017 and is responsible for leading the Americas Think Big Organization.

They are only as effective as those who wield them. Throughout the author's 20+ years of experience in helping companies identify and solve their most intractable problems, he has observed a common theme: those companies that wield analytics tools effectively do not simply deploy analytics solutions. Instead, they embrace a culture of analytics, and they embed analytics throughout their organization, at the cellular level. Analytics becomes pervasive.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThus, this book. It is not prescriptive. There is no methodology, no rubric, or framework. There is no magic solution, no one thing that must be done. Rather, it is a reflection on lessons learned—from successes and failures—on how companies can transform analytics from tools they use, to a philosophy that makes knowledge and analysis pervasive and helps them define who they are now, and who they will become.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wiley","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47989770125541,"sku":"NP9781119558873","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1842\/7735\/files\/9781119558873.jpg?v=1761785413","url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/products\/pervasive-intelligence-now-isbn-9781119558873","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
