You Need Sensors for Analytics – The On-Premise IT Roundtable

The Premise: In order to be an effective analytics company, you need a sensor.

Tom Hollingsworth leads a discussion around how important sensors are for analytics and data. Is network monitoring enough? What about something in software? Or is the added expense of a dedicated out-of-band physical sensor the price you have to pay? The roundtable is pretty evenly split on the subject, and discusses where each approach works best.
