Enterprise Information Architecture for a New Age: Big Data and The
Internet of Things, provides guidance in designing an information
architecture to accommodate increasingly large amounts of data,
massively large amounts of data, not only from traditional sources, but
also from novel sources such everyday objects that are fast becoming
wired into global Internet. No business can afford to be caught out by
missing the value to be mined from the increasingly large amounts of
available data generated by everyday devices.
The text provides background as to how analytical solutions and
enterprise architecture methodologies and concepts have evolved
(including the roles of data warehouses, business intelligence tools,
predictive analytics, data discovery, Big Data, and the impact of the
Internet of Things). Then you're taken through a series of steps by
which to define a future state architecture and create a plan for how to
reach that future state.

Internet of Things helps you gain an understanding of the following:
- Implications of Big Data from a variety of new data sources (including
data from sensors that are part of the Internet of Things) upon an
