How Netflix Uses Big Data to Drive Success – Infographic

Big data helps Netflix decide which programs will be of interest to you and the recommendation system actually influences 80% of the content we watch on Netflix. The company even gave away a $1 million prize in 2009 to the group who came up with the best algorithm for predicting how customers would like a movie based on previous ratings. The algorithms help Netflix save $1 billion a year in value from customer retention.

The Infographic below, which was created by Drew Burstein, looks at how Netflix uses that data to keep you signed up!
