Data, data and data. This seems to be what our world is swimming and immersing in. Why?

While these figures are fascinating, why we need to be so obsessed with them is that all these gargantuan numbers could mean nothing if we did not now how to use this data. This is why the technology by which this is done, namely Data Analytics (or Big Data Analytics), is such a hot topic in the tech world today.
