Institute for Data-Driven Business – d2b

The d2b connects practice with science

In order to anchor data-based decisions and management processes in the company culture during the digital age, self-service analysis tools and cloud-based infrastructures are increasingly becoming necessary. The IoT and social networks make ever more data available in different data formats which require different system architectures and different software systems (big data).
