Show transcript
Our online reputations are valuable to organisations. Organisations collect data to streamline services and target advertisements. Data can even be used to change the content that is shown to us online. A key tool for harnessing the value of this information is big data. Big data is the term used to describe large data sets that are analysed in order to identify patterns and trends.
