Mapping Big Data

Chapter 1. Mapping Big Data

This report will analyze the “big data” market space, using social network analysis (SNA) of the network of partnerships among vendors. It’s the first of its kind—this market report is entirely data driven.

In this report, we collect data from the Web, analyze it to produce insight, and interpret insight to produce market intelligence. Our data comes from partnership pages on vendor websites. The primary analytic tool in our toolbox is social network analysis.

The primary tenet of network analysis is that the structure of social relations determines the content of those relations.
