The new frontier of data management is not really centered on the collection or even the analyzing of data, but on access, consolidation, and sharing, and making that data (even if it’s from two seemingly disparate, unrelated data sources) actionable.

Both megatrends – 5G and AI – may converge at the start of the next decade in the 2020s, creating new opportunities and business models. In the past, I have been skeptical of how 5G will play a role with AI, but there may be a different way to look at the issue.

Feed: Alation. Author: Stephanie McReynolds. We live in an age of unprecedented speed and breadth of technological change. Since the year 2000, new discoveries are coming at a fast and furious pace in many technology sectors, including software, material science, neuroscience, and genetics. Innovations are also uniquely broad compared to other eras of technological innovation, spanning multiple technologies from innovations like genetically targeted cancer treatments to 3D bioprinting of tissue.
