Hi,

Below is the answer-

The purpose of an information strategy is to highlight the extent to which a modern, complex organization depends on information.
This dependency has always been present and nowhere more so than in organization whose very purpose is built around information and its conversion into useful knowledge. But it has been felt with ever greater keenness since the advent of the IT revolution thirty years ago and with the catalytic force of the World Wide Web.
Whether improving access to learning resources and research collections, developing management information systems to support decision making, or facilitating better communication, the information strategy seeks to emphasize the importance of good information management.

Adoption of new technologies as a part of IT strategy leads to better decision making and those decisions can actually be supported by strong rules.
The new data analytic tools helps organizations to mine their historiacl data and extract the meaningful rules and/or patterns which can yield better outcomes.
These tools can yield very powerful patterns from the past behavior of the data.
