TechNavio today launched its report, Global Big Data Market in the Healthcare Sector 2011-2015, based on an in-depth analysis covering the Americas, and the EMEA and APAC regions. The report aims to aid decision makers’ understanding of the significant trends impacting this market.
Commenting on the report, an analyst from TechNavio’s Enterprise Computing team said: ”Usage of big data for epidemiology, which is study of health-related issues across a wide network of geography, is one of the major trends of the Global Big Data market in the Healthcare sector. Big data solutions help in the assessment, monitoring, and analysis of the spread of a disease among the inhabitants. This technology also helps in determining the reason behind global or local disease outbreaks. The increasing number of epidemics, significantly in the developing countries, and technological advancements of healthcare organizations to control such epidemics has increased the popularity of epidemiology. Therefore, the emergence of epidemiology is a major trend in the Healthcare sector which might drive the Big Data market in future years.”
According to the report, one of the major drivers for big data solutions in the Healthcare sector is the need to improve the availability and transparency of vast amounts of data stored across enterprises. Mostly, the healthcare enterprises are not aware of the potential benefits of data stored in their databases. Big data solutions help such enterprises in leveraging this vast pool of data for better and improved patient care. The big data technology provides actionable insights to healthcare providers based on the understanding of the entire population. Patients can also have a better view of their health. Therefore, efficiency in data analysis can result in better decision-making both by decision-makers as well as by patients.
Further, the report reveals that one of the major concerns with big data analytics is the difficulty in ascertaining the accuracy of the underlying data that is used to support decision-making.
The study was conducted using an objective combination of primary and secondary information including inputs from key participants in the industry. The report contains a comprehensive market and vendor landscape in addition to a SWOT analysis of the key vendors.
