The rising volume of unstructured business data is anticipated to drive the growth of the analytics market in the coming years. Unstructured business data refers to information that does not reside in a traditional row-column database and lacks a predefined data model. The volume of such data is increasing as organizations generate substantial amounts of text, video, and social media content through expanding digital touchpoints. Analytics allows organizations to effectively handle the growing volume of unstructured business data by utilizing machine learning and natural language processing to transform disorganized content into structured, actionable intelligence. For example, in June 2024, according to the UK Business Data Survey 2024 published by GOV.UK, a UK-based public information website, almost all (99%) businesses with at least 10 employees handled digitized data in 2024. Additionally, 14% of businesses that handled digitized data shared data outside their organization, indicating increasing data sophistication, while approximately one-fifth (21%) analyzed data to generate new insights and knowledge. Furthermore, 2% of businesses used data for artificial intelligence or automated decision-making purposes, rising to 12% among large businesses. Therefore, the rising volume of unstructured business data is expected to drive the growth of the analytics market.

Key companies operating in the analytics market are prioritizing technological advancements in AI-driven analytics, including agentic analytics, to strengthen their competitive positioning. Agentic analytics represents autonomous systems that leverage large language models and advanced reasoning engines to proactively monitor data, detect anomalies, and execute complex workflows with minimal human intervention. For example, in February 2026, Snowflake Inc., a US-based computer software company, introduced Cortex Code, a data-native AI coding agent that automates end-to-end enterprise development by interpreting specific data contexts, enabling autonomous pipeline orchestration, and delivering real-time financial operations insights related to credit consumption. Consequently, such advancements in generative intelligence are enabling organizations to transition from passive reporting to proactive, self-optimizing systems within the analytics market.

In September 2024, Salesforce Inc., a US-based provider of customer relationship management software, cloud platforms, and enterprise analytics solutions, acquired Own Company for an undisclosed amount.
