IT industry to create 4.4 million jobs by 2015: Gartner
BANGALORE: IT industry would see creation of 4.4 million jobs globally
by 2015 to support big data, but only one-third of the jobs will be
filled because there isnot enough talent, according to IT research and
advisory firm Gartner.
It also said the IT spending is forecast to surpass $3.7 trillion
in2013, a 3.8 per cent increase from the current year projected
spending of $3.6 trillion.
"By 2015, 4.4 million IT jobs globally will be created to support big
data, generating 1.9 million IT jobs in the United States," said Peter
Sondergaard, Senior Vice-President at Gartner and Global Head of
Research.
In addition, every big data-related role in the US will create
employment for three people outside of IT, so over the next four years
a total of 6 million jobs in the US will be generated by the
information economy, Gartner said.
"But there is a challenge. There isnot enough talent in the
industry.Our public and private education systems are failing us.
Therefore, only one-third of the IT jobs will be filled. Data experts
will be a scarce, valuable commodity," Sondergaard said.
"IT leaders will need immediate focus on how their organization
develops and attracts the skills required. These jobs will be needed
to grow your business. These jobs are the future of the new
information economy", he added.
Big data creates a new layer in the economy which is all about
information, turning information,or data, into revenue. This will
accelerate growth in the global economy and create jobs, Gartner said.
"Big data is about looking ahead,beyond what everybody else sees,"
Sondergaard said.
"You need to understand how to deal with hybrid data, meaning the
combination of structured and unstructured data, and how you shine a
light on 'dark data.' Dark data is the data being collected, but going
unused despite its value", he added.
