predictive analytics

You can’t see into the future (yet), but with predictive analytics you can make an educated guess. Predictive analytics involves using data, statistical models, and machine learning algorithms to predict or forecast the most likely scenarios or business outcomes. It can be used for business optimization, risk management, or other use cases. To effectively leverage such advanced analytics and transform to an insights-driven business, application development and delivery (AD&D) professionals must assess the market landscape for the right vendors and solutions and determine which solutions are best for their organization or use cases. Read the latest on predictive analytics technologies, vendor selection, and use cases here.
