当每个人的生产力都提高 10 倍时，就没有人真正提高了
分析9/11事件成因后，我们认识到：必须更广泛地连接所掌握的数据，并对已建立的关联开展后续分析。
原始摘录
the big realization from the analysis of what led to the events of 9/11 was that we really needed much broader connectivity among the data we had, and subsequent analysis of the links that were established.

实际上，我想说，对我而言，在这一转型过程中（如果可以这么说的话）相当核心的一点是，政府认识到了使用商业工具进行关联分析的重要性。很多很多年前，我曾在一个开发高度专有工具以支持此类任务的环境中工作。结果就是到处都是孤岛。我认为 这后来成为一种非常重要的方法，也进入了商业运营领域，并催生了大数据以及大规模分析我们能够整合的此类数据的技术。我认为 9/11 对数据分析的推动作用，远超我们在 1990 年代通过数据仓库及类似技术所取得的成果。它表明了整合联邦式和异构数据库的重要性。
原始上下文
Actually, I would say that, for me, what was quite central in that transition, if you will, was the realization by the government of the importance of link analysis using commercial tools. Many, many years ago, I had worked in an environment that was developing very proprietary tools to support those types of missions. As a result, there were silos galore. I think That then became a very important approach that found its way into commercial operations as well and led to big data and techniques to massively analyze that type of data that we were able to bring together. I think 9/11 did much more for data analysis than what we had previously in the 1990s with data warehousing and those kinds of technologies. It showed the importance of bringing together federated and disparate databases.
