Your most valuable asset is your data.


The world is complex, and the amount of data that is generated every day is growing. In 2010, that number is expected to exceed 988 exabytes of information. It's as if every man, woman, and child on the planet wrote 294,620 novels. This year. It's also more than every grain of sand on every beach on the planet. In fact, it's about 131 times more. Other startling numbers:
  • There will be 30 billion RFID tags in existence by next year
  • Nearly 4 trillion RFID events occur every day
  • The world has 4 billion mobile phone subscribers (or one subscriber for every 1.67 human beings on the planet)
  • An estimated 200 billion emails are sent, daily.
  • There are 1 billion people on the internet (or one out of every 6.7 human beings on the planet)
  • For every single person on the planet, there are 1 billion transistors
  • All of the people and systems on the Earth generate an estimated 15 petabytes of data every day.
For businesses, all of this data amounts to two sides of the same coin: a challenge--and more importantly--an opportunity.

jStart helps businesses prepare.

So how can companies get started tackling such a potentially huge challenge? Antithetically, by doing the exact opposite: starting small. jStart can help your business explore how emerging technologies can allow your company to begin tackling this looming issue. We all know that emerging technology can be challenging. Afterall, it's emerging. But that's where the jStart team's expertise can be of benefit: we specialize in helping companies get started with emerging technologies, not by solving some theoretical problem, but by tackling real, challenging, issues that companies face today.

What's with this whole 'New Intelligence' concept from IBM?

It's not just about having a ton of data. It's about doing something intelligent with that information. IBM has recognized this, and has launched it's New Intelligence initiative as part of its Smarter Planet efforts. Realizing returns on your web investments starts with more intelligent components running behind the scenes. Web activity metering, monitoring, and monetization tools let you take control. You can track consumption of your web assets even when they reside on platforms that you don't control. They wisely protect your web investment by allowing non-intrusive oversight to external vendors and security metrics to guard against hackers. Providing you with consumer response, demand, and behavior pattern data, you can gather intelligence on how to differentiate your brand from the competition. Let jStart show you how surprisingly lightweight and easy it can be to get started.

Intelligently Instrumented.

Streamlining processes for instrumented operations has become tougher as hybrid "click and brick" business models gain popularity. In order to provide focus and clear directives across your value chain, web channels need to become highly integrated for conflicts to be solved with specific, timely solutions. Business event processing tools trigger self-starting and self-regulating conflict resolutions between channels. jStart's web solutions and services equip you with the information to take action plus the tools to automate those actions effectively.

Industry Approved.

jStart's combined industry perspective and experience can be leveraged to manage risk while stimulating web-based innovations using emerging technologies. It's knowledge of emerging growth markets and understanding of those markets can also aid in identifying opportunities. Such continuous innovation is required to create and sustain value. Without web-based innovations, you risk falling behind and losing market presence- especially during turbulent economic times. When you need a partner instead of another provider, an "open innovation" engagement utilizing jStart solutions and services helps your organization excel in industry.
