What is Big Data?
A definition:
Big Data are datasets that
grow so large and/or varied
that they become awkward
to work with using
traditional information
management technologies

What is Big Data or Big Data Analytics
TDWI:
Big data analytics is the application of advanced analytic techniques to very large,
diverse data sets that often include varied data types and streaming data.
Wikipedia:
Big data is the term for a collection of data sets so large and complex that it becomes
difficult to process using on-hand database management tools or traditional data
processing applications. The challenges include capture, curation, storage, search,
sharing, transfer, analysis and visualization.
Forbes:
Big data is new and “ginormous” and scary – very, very scary….
U.S. federal Big Data commission report:
Big Data is a phenomenon defined by the rapid acceleration in the expanding volume of
high velocity, complex, and diverse types of data. Big Data is often defined along three
dimensions -- volume, velocity, and variety

Big data: The next frontier for innovation, competition, and productivity

U.S. federal Big Data commission report
The Big Data Commission will provide guidance to the White House and Congress on
the use of big data to improve government efficiency, services and capabilities, and
drive innovation and the economy
• The Commission was formed in May, 2012
• Steve Mills co-chair
• Brought together experts from Government,
Academia and Industry
• The report seeks to demystify big data,
and focus on the business and mission
value it will deliver
• Intent is to provide clear recommendations
and a roadmap for getting started

How do you correlate information
across different data sets, e.g.,
social media and trusted
enterprise data?
How do you decide the next
best action when dealing
with customers?
How do you monitor and visualize
data in real time and generate
alerts?
Is your customer data distributed
among many different applications
and sources? How do you deliver
it in usable form to the employees
who need it?

Big Data considerations....
• How to find out that the datasets exist ?
• How to get permission to access and use ?
• Privacy, confidentiality, security ?
• How to combine disparate datasets and sources ?
• How to normalize and integrate ?
• How to reconcile standards and metadata considerations ?
• Underlying data structures ?
• Interoperability ?
• How to get the people who collect these disparate data types to
communicate with one another ?
(And with the computer people ?)
• If they understand one another better, will combing diverse data
be easier and more useful ?
• How to get people who don’t understand data structures and
architecture to understand them well enough to make analysis
and modeling more possible and successful ?

33. How do you address these challenges?
These experiences reveal a great irony -- that while the impact of Big Data
will be transformational, the path to effectively harnessing it is not. The
journey is evolutionary versus revolutionary, incremental and iterative
– Demystifying Big Data, TechAmerica Report, October 2012
Is your organization characterized by one or more of the following
traits?
1. Executive Management wants a big data plan
2. Executive Management wants it to be realistic and drive value as it is
being implemented
3. Wants a partner to rely on for guidance & expertise to lower risk
4. Big Data must be leveraged with the existing infrastructure
5. Concerned about the complexity & risk of Big Data acquisition

Gartner on Hadoop: Don’t Delay
- Big data analytics and the Apache Hadoop open source project are rapidly
emerging as the preferred solution to address business and technology trends that
are disrupting traditional data management and processing. Enterprises can gain a
competitive advantage by being early adopters of big data analytics.
- Enterprises should consider adopting a packaged Hadoop distribution . . . to
reduce the technical risk and increase speed of implementation of the Hadoop
initiative.
- Enterprises should not delay implementation just because of the technical
nature of big data analytics....Early adopters will gain competitive advantage
and invaluable experience, which will sustain the advantage as the technology
matures and gains wider acceptance.
- Adopt big data analytics and . . . Hadoop . . . to meet the challenges of the
changing business and technology landscape.
