Advanced Analytics & Business Network Visualization

Gartner offered up their top 10 list for strategic technologies in 2010.  [read the full article on ZD NET]

Ranking in at #2 is “Advanced Analytics” which aren’t exactly defined, but are address in the quotation below.  My perspective is that Jute is a form of Analytics–it’s analytics for your network of professional relationship.  Jute helps you make better decisions with the data that you have by converting that data to information.  That process of analysis and visualization is the hallmark of great analytics software of every stripe.

Here’s what ZD Net quoted:

On the analytics front, Gartner said in a presentation:
We have reached the point in the improvement of performance and costs that we can afford to perform analytics and simulation for each and every action taken in the business. Not only will data center systems be able to do this, but mobile devices will have access to data and enough capability to perform analytics themselves, potentially enabling use of optimization and simulation everywhere and every time. This can be viewed as a third step in supporting operational business decisions.
The rub: New technologies need to be created to search and organize unstructured content and data.

That’s right.  And that’s what Jute offers–a solution to search and organize that unstructured data.

Blast from the past…

Last summer, we rolled out Jute PublicMaps (which is no longer available…).

I was cleaning out our YouTube account to get ready to post some new videos and I found this old video still up there. PublicMaps was pretty cool if you ask me…

Enjoy!
