In its new report on Big Data, the research and consulting firm Celent has defined five tiers of data capability: Spectator, Experimenter, Practitioner, Innovator, and Scientist. Using these tiers, Celent suggests that an organization can understand where it is in terms of Big Data capability, but perhaps more importantly where it should be.
The report, Big Data: A Guide to Where You Should Be, Even If You Don't Know Where You Are, was written with a focus on insurance, banking, and securities.
“Celent does not advocate that all companies should aspire to be at the bleeding edge of big data,” says Craig Beattie, senior analyst with Celent's insurance group and coauthor of the report. “The goal of this report is to help financial institutions understand what their level of investment should be strategically, and how to get there.”
