Data Driven Development

The current big data fad can help us as developers to do a better, and arguably more interesting job.
We can use and analyse the data we have in our disposal, in logs, databases, analytics. Detecting trends and correlations can be very useful for a good understanding of the product.
For new features, following the lean startup movement, we can test any hypotheses we have around developing new products and features by using metrics.
