1) Amazon alters its prices over 2.5 million times daily based on data, changing 15-20% of inventory prices daily. 2) Netflix used data on viewing habits and ratings to determine House of Cards would be successful before making it. 3) Boeing jets generate 10 terabytes of data every 30 minutes, and Rolls Royce monitors thousands of engines to predict problems.

By comparison, retailers such as Best Buy andWal-Mart make roughly 50,000 price changes over the course of an entire month. 360pi estimates that Amazon changes the prices of 15% to 20% of its inventory daily. http://www.businessinsider.com/amazon-price-tracking-2014-8
- 3. Netflix Based on allthis data they collect, Netflix could safely determine that certain ingredients would lead to the phenomenal success of House of Cards. A healthy amount of subscribers streamed David Fincher’s ‘The Social Network’ on the site and watched the film from beginning to end without leaving. Also, Kevin Spacey films on Netflix have, on average, 5 star ratings from customers. Finally, the original British version of House of Cards was extremely popular with Netflix users. And so the company bought the license to the show without even watching the pilot.. http://www.minttwist.com/blog/2015/02/25/the-success-of-netflix-through-big-data/ Image Source : https://gigaom.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/1/2013/02/hoc_pds_010_h.jpg?quality=80&strip=all
