In an ZDNet article published this morning, Revolution Analytics CTO Greg Todd surveys the landscape for IT archietcture and tools to bring the insights of data scientists to business decision makers:

Read what Greg has to say about the talent gap for data scientists and statisticians, the rise of open source R, and the layers of a modern analytical platform at the link below.
