The paradox of our time in history is that we have taller buildings but shorter tempers. We spend more time, but have less; we buy more, but enjoy less. We have bigger houses and smaller families, more conveniences, but less time.  We have more degrees but less sense, more knowledge but less judgment, more experts yet more problems, more medicines but less wellness.

Data have always played a critical role in business. The digital age has brought with it a quantum increase in the amount of data available to the modern organization. Retail giant Wal-Mart feeds more than 1m transactions an hour into databases estimated at more than 2.5 petabytes. Facebook’s 750m users create an average of 90 pieces of content each month. And an average of 294bn e-mails is sent every day.
