NEIL C. HUGHES
About this episode

I sit down with Chris Royles, EMEA Field CTO at Cloudera, to discuss the evolution of Big Data and why hybrid data is the next challenge for businesses to tackle. In this episode, we explore how the term 'Big Data' has become dated and how the rapid rise of hybrid data has shifted the conversation.

Chris will take us through the explosive growth of structured data in the past decade, from less than 1ZB in 2011 to a staggering 14ZB in 2020, and its expected trajectory to triple by 2025. Then, as organizations continue to collect and manage increasingly large datasets, Chris will explain why hybrid data is here to stay and how businesses can harness its power.

We'll also dive into the importance of a modern data architecture that integrates multi-function data analytics with secure and governed data management, regardless of where the data resides – be it in the cloud, on-premise, or at the edge. Finally, learn how businesses can leverage hybrid data to make real-time decisions and why data truly is the new oil.

Take advantage of this fascinating conversation with Chris Royles, an expert in the ever-evolving world of data, as we uncover the challenges and benefits of embracing hybrid data in today's technology-driven landscape.
