Cisco ConfidentialThe Smart County Conference is part of Kent Connects digital.together transformation programme, a pioneering initiative of awareness and inspiration, focussing on the opportunities that digital creates for all communities and sectors in Kent.

This conference will be showcasing a number of fantastic speakers looking from a national to a local level at inspiring Kent to utilise their data to inform smart decision making.

Kent Connects wants to showcase the wider vision to help encourage involvement and understanding of how we can improve Kent through the better use of our data. As a technology partnership and part of a digital programme the event will be focussing on how Kent can use technology and big data principles to kick-start its digital transformation through better data utilisation.

The first session will share their vision of the wider possibilities both at a local and national level, looking at how Kent can embrace new practises and platforms to enable better use of our data to help us make insightful decisions.

We will hear from Cisco on how nationally we are improving public services through better use of data, followed by our Keynote Speaker, Ian Watt and the national example of Code the City Aberdeen.

The digital economy is disrupting everything

# 2016 Cisco and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved. Cisco ConfidentialThe digital economy is disrupting everything. In every industry, data is being created in places it never has before.Creating hyper-distributed data environments. It is becoming ever increasingly hard to reach that data, secure that data, and much less draw an insight and enable a person or process to take action on the data.

But data is not the problem, connected data is the problem.

If every single employee is a decision-maker, organizations must focus on enhancing the quality of each decision taken.

The ability to secure, aggregate, automate, and draw insights from an organizations own data with speed will define value for that organization.

When you connect People, Process, Data and Things, new opportunities emerge:New market opportunitiesNew business modelsNew way to operateNew ways to consume technologyTechnology becomes an enabler

How much of this is useful?


How do you turn information into insight?

# 2016 Cisco and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved. Cisco ConfidentialBut, Data is the biggest challenge to realizing that opportunity: In a recent Cisco study (2014), 40% of surveyed companies identified Big Data as the area in most of need of improvement within their organization. In the same study, nearly 40% said that within three years, most data will be processed at the network edge on smart devices. They also identified Analytics tools for Big Data as the most important enablers of connected device networking.Which of the following enabling areas do you think your organization needs to improve the most in order to make effective use of IoT solutions? Data- Effectively capturing, storing, and analyzing data generated by connected "things" (e.g., machines, devices)Process - Updating our business and operational processes to benefit from IoT solutionsPeople - Enabling our workers to effectively use IoT solutions through means such as training and providing user-friendly systemsThings - Connecting the right "things" (e.g., machines, devices, equipment) to capture useful data

and insight into action?


For 25 Years, the data warehouse has beenthe data integration approach of choice

Data Warehouse

Financial Statements

Business Intelligence

Compliance Reporting

# 2016 Cisco and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved. Cisco ConfidentialAs you know a combination of integration via ETL and data replication in a data warehouse has been the approach of choice for enterprise data integration for 25 years. Companies like yours use this approach for core enterprise utilities like financial statement preparation, ongoing compliance reporting, and the utility-style business intelligence needs of large firms. Although ETL/DW has been the approach of choice, we all know that it is very expensive and slow.

Today data is distributed across the enterprise and in the cloud

Cloud DataBig DataTraditional Data

IoE/Edge Data

# 2016 Cisco and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved. Cisco ConfidentialAs you are fully aware, these integrations are getting harder, not easier to pull off. Data is increasingly distributed, both inside and outside the organization, and it's becoming more diverse. Structured data remains, but now less structured data is becoming more important. Data sources moving from static to dynamic and data like this shouldnt reside in a data warehouse.

12

Not all data can, or should be loaded into a data warehouse

But it should be joined-up

What are others doing?

# 2016 Cisco and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved. Cisco ConfidentialSmarter more connected communities will generate huge amounts more data. - Data and Analytics will be crucial to a cities success.

Where does it go?What do you do with it?How do you access it?How do you combine it?How do you secure it?

Data analysis & visualisation techniques can be used to understand the interconnectivity between different city services & infrastructure and how these projects might impact the city

Linking multiple data sources together will be critical to joining up different public sector organisations. Data Virtualisation is a huge opportunity for us all.

There are 460 apps downloadable that use TfL data none written by TfL!

Just a thought - Should we look at data differently should we look at data for the social good of a community?
