The Evolution of Data Products

Rate this book
This report examines the important shifts in data products. Drawing from diverse examples, including iTunes, Google's self-driving car, and patient monitoring, author Mike Loukides explores the "disappearance" of data, the power of combining data, and the difference between discovery and recommendation. Looking ahead, the analysis finds the real changes in our lives will come from products and companies that reveal data results, not the data itself.

Good intro to trends in data as products

High level intro with some good examples. He could elaborate more on the approaches and techniques that enable "discovery" like machine learning / artificial intelligence

A short essay that is thought provoking & filled with just enough examples to understand the impact of data products. It's a great read for people who are from a non-technical background & are curious to know where the future is headed with all the talks around data.

It showed in very few pages the transition from physical mediums (Book, VHS, CD, ..) to digital age (iTunes, Spotify, Netfliex, Kindle,..) to personalization of data results (mood, suggest better material,..) that are in tune with our human goals.
Showing a new paradigm of movement from recommendation to discovery out of the cocoon.
