5. IT CHALLENGE: AMOUNT OF DATA
CHALLENGE: How can we ensure that increasing
amounts of data is always available?
EXAMPLES:
□ Global availability of huge amounts of data.
Communication speed and latency between
locations makes moving data when using data
hard. How can this be handled on an
intranet? How can this be handled using the
cloud?
□ How can we make sure that big amounts of
data is available on miscellaneous geographic
locations, in different time zones etc?
