Jeff Kelly et al posted a Big Data market forecast earlier this year. I had a couple of questions and was wondering if anyone could help me understand the forecast in a bit more detail.
1. There seems to be a growing number of services (e.g., Datasift, Grepsr) focused on online data collection. Which category of the market forecast would incorporate these data collection services - perhaps SaaS, app software, professional services, or a mix?
2. To what extent is government-sourced revenue included in the Big Data market forecast? Or does the forecast only include enterprise-driven revenue?
