The various elements that interact with one another in order to produce, manage, store, organize, analyze and share data
To put it simply, an ecosystem is a group of elements that interact with one another. Ecosystems can be large, like the jungle in a tropical rainforest or the Australian outback.
Or, tiny, like tadpoles in a puddle, or bacteria on your skin. And just like the kangaroos and koala bears in the Australian outback, data lives inside its own ecosystem too.
Data ecosystems are made up of various elements that interact with one another in order to produce, manage, store, organize, analyze, and share data.
These elements include hardware and software tools, and the people who use them.
Data can also be found in something called the cloud. The cloud is a place to keep data online, rather than on a computer hard drive.
So instead of storing data somewhere inside your organization’s network, that data is accessed over the internet.
