The immense data stores, networked systems, business ecosystems and technologies that enable companies to serve their markets and customers, hold a vast amount of information that needs to be reined in.

To meet this challenge, companies are leveraging the Internet of Things and cloud computing which allow for collection of data from numerous sources. For example, IBM and The Weather Company are collaborating to accelerate the growth of one of the largest cloud-based applications in the world. The partnership enables enterprise clients and industry ecosystems to more easily integrate weather data – including rapidly updated forecasts – into their operations and decision-making.

These range from traditional databases that manage transactional data generated by business applications, to enterprise data warehouses that facilitate deep analysis, to the Apache Hadoop Distributed File System that stores large volumes of mostly unstructured data that can be mined for new insights. There is value to be found in this data. The challenge for IT organizations is how to access and integrate relevant data for deeper insight. Michael Lippis interviews John Schitka to gain SAP's perspective on Big Data and Hadoop.

They cannot access relevant data easily, navigate it quickly, organize it meaningfully, or make decisions with any degree of certainty. Business analytics should enable everyone within an organization to achieve remarkable results. How? By enabling users to know every aspect of their business — relative to them; by enabling decisions to be made with confidence — balancing risk and opportunity; and by enabling users to act boldly — responding to events as they unfold, taking coordinated action, and learning and improving over time.

Technical complexity, increasing demand for new applications and services, and proliferating systems crowding the data center floor are routine. So is the need to juggle ever-changing management priorities—and deal with the vagaries of the quarterly budget. What’s new is the fact that project and portfolio management (PPM) now impacts business success in a visceral way. The efficiency and effectiveness of PPM are directly related to bottom-line financial results—and poor PPM practices are not an option for business leaders. Equally important, new trends and business conditions are increasing the pressure to implement better PPM practices. We interview Bruce Randall to gain HP's perspective IT financial management.
