Importance Of Data Mining

• Organizations routinely collect voluminous data but use only a very small percentage of it effectively.
• The amount of data is so large that we must find some patterns in it to be really useful.
• The massive growth of communication provides increased access to large amounts of data.
• It is not possible to manually interpret all the data
• It is also very difficult to formulate queries to extract the exact information needed.
• The extraction of information must be quick and timely to be really useful.
