Recorded audio from the Peer Incite:
Big data is data that is too large, too dispersed and too unstructured to handle using conventional methods. Born out of search companies’ needs to handle massive volumes of information, big data initiatives are going mainstream and transforming product strategies, businesses, organizational roles and entire industries. While big data is all the rage, most of the spending still goes to traditional data warehousing efforts using conventional DW approaches. Will the schism between big data and traditional data warehousing continue? Will data become the new source of competitive advantage in the technology industry? Find out.
At the next Peer Incite, Wikibon will present findings from new research that addresses:
- What is big data?
- Why are solutions like Oracle/Exadata inappropriate for emerging big data applications?
- What does the big data tsunami mean for IT organizations, business lines and technology companies?
- What can be done with big data that conventional approaches can’t achieve?
- What are the predominant use cases and industries adopting big data approaches?
