Progress' 2017 Data Connectivity Market Survey Indicates Significant Rise in Adoption of SaaS, Data Security, Open Analytics and Data Standards
Progress
(NASDAQ: PRGS) today announced findings from its 2017 Data Connectivity
Outlook Survey. Progress surveyed 1,200 business and IT professionals in
various roles, representing a range of industries across the globe, to
capture their views on the impact of the changing landscape of
disruptive data sources.
Significant findings from the survey include:
-
SaaS (News - Alert) adoption has increased from 62% to 79% in the last year as has
significant investment in on-premise RDBMS and big data. This
combination creates a major challenge in accessing on-premise data
from the cloud with increasing complexity in firewall policies mixed
with expanding data protection laws and security standards.
-
Nearly 100% of those surveyed are leveraging various forms of data
access standards (up from 88% last year).
-
Adoption of analytics is increasing, with 63% of respondents noting
analytics and reporting as high priority. As a result, adoption of
open analytics is rapidly growing as a complementary component to
overall analytics/reporting strategies.
-
Hadoop Hive is the most popular interface in a crowded space of
SQL-for-Big Data technologies and is expected to be the fastest
growing SQL interface to big data in the next two years.
-
For those using embedded analytics, 45% are also using data science
tools, 59% are using data visualization and 65% are leveraging
enterprise reporting.
