What is the future value of telecommunications? Big Data!

After 2012 years of "Ice Age", all telecom operators and telecommunications equipment operators have realized that the traditional telecommunications market growth has been small, looking for new market opportunities and growth space, is the important proposition of this MWC. 4G, the Internet of things, cloud computing by the entire telecommunications industry has placed high expectations, and in these technical concepts behind the future development of the carrier telecom industry is actually embedded in the mobile broadband, internet and cloud computing in the middle of the big data.

In this exhibition, Ericsson, the world's largest telecoms equipment maker, once again emphasized its previous concept of "cyber society" will bear the future development of telecommunications, and in the "Network society" behind the concept, Ericsson describes is a person and equipment can be interconnected, all data value can be fully tapped society.

Vestberg, President and CEO of Ericsson, said in a dialogue with Phoenix technology, although under the influence of the current economic form, the entire telecommunications industry in the 2012 more difficult, but it can be foreseen that with the development of the network society, the entire industry will gain huge market space, the era of large-scale growth is coming.

"and large-scale growth mainly from the business transformation, from the previous only voice, SMS communications to large data, large flow and other services business needs." He said that with the development of mobile interconnection in depth, it will lead to ecological changes in all walks of life and new business model innovation. Vestberg says that in the "Cyber Society" vision, many industries will become more efficient, business, business, day-to-day work and life will change. This is a huge business opportunity for traditional telecom operators and telecoms equipment providers.

It is understood that Ericsson has been with SAP, Volvo and other manufacturers to reach a strategic partnership to explore and research machine communication, and find new business value. In addition, Ericsson's research department has begun a forward-looking study of large data to look forward to the future hosting of data mining needs of operators on user behavior.

In fact, not only are telecoms operators like Ericsson looking at new opportunities for telecoms, including China Unicom, France Telecom, Telefónica, and Verizon, are also highlighting the future of telecoms, which is big data.

China Unicom general Manager yimin in the Dialogue Phoenix technology, the big data, cloud computing and other services will become operators of new market space and growth point. According to Yimin, China Unicom is currently working on a large data business, and has set up a cloud data operations center, plans to rely on the department to gradually try to carry out the operation of large data business.

In fact, after the arrival of large data, enterprises will face the demand of massive information storage, its urgent need to solve the problem is to improve the data storage capacity, because only the proper storage of data, it is possible to further explore its potential value, and improve data storage capacity to provide operators with new business opportunities.

At the same time, the telecom operators themselves have a very rich natural advantages of data resources, so based on user behavior analysis, behavioral understanding, behavioral prediction of customer depth insight, the data encapsulation as a service, to form an open, commercialized core competencies, so as to achieve business model innovation.

France Telecom, for example, is the largest telecoms operator in France, and France Telecom has been building IT systems in many of France's public services, in which France Telecom has begun to try to tap into the potential value of large data. France Telecom, for example, has built a French highway data monitoring project, which produces 5 million records a day, analyzing these records to provide accurate and timely information for vehicles travelling on highways, effectively improving road patency rates.

The big data, McKinsey argues, will be the target of future productivity growth and innovation, as well as rising consumer demand. The specific information that the enterprise can obtain is growing, multimedia, social media, Internet of things will greatly increase the information that the enterprise can obtain in the future, and the leader of any industry has already seen the unprecedented potential and significance of the big data.
