While most IT decision makers believe their organization is doing a good job of acting on data insights, it often takes weeks or months to generate and then act on those insights. There's an opportunity to do better by deploying new technologies and making the data lifecycle more efficient—and organizations that don't address the time-to-value gap may find themselves lagging behind faster and more agile rivals.
