Title:
Rapid
Data Growth in the Government Sector
Abstract: Data
growth has major effects on the government systems. It
degrades performance and limits the availability of mission-critical
applications and data warehouses. In the area of information
technology, almost
all government sectors observed a continues and an unprecedented rate
of data
growth of stored and archived documents in electronic format. Most
estimates
are that of all the information stored, either personal or
organizational, only
20% is ever actually accessed and used again, and only 5% is used
regularly.
Our research studies the data growth in the computer systems available
in some
public/government sectors in the state of Kuwait. Analyzing
historical data,
it spots the light on the data growth within the client's machines
using
different approaches.
