The Briefing Room with Shawn Rogers and Composite Software
Slides from the Live Webcast on May 15, 2012
Everyone wants more data these days, though often for different reasons. Business analysts, data scientists and front-line workers all know the value of having that extra piece of information. The big question remains -- how can all these needs be supported without taxing IT and without breaking the bank? And how can the worlds of traditional Business Intelligence, Big Data Analytics and Transaction Systems combine to improve business outcomes?
In this episode of The Briefing Room, veteran Analyst Shawn Rogers of Enterprise Management Associates explains what is needed to take advantage from today's hybrid data ecosystem. He'll be briefed by Bob Eve of Composite Software who will explain how innovative enterprises are using data virtualization to gain insight across these worlds and doing so with greater agility and lower costs.

5. Ultimately analytics is about businesses making optimal
decisions, although the range of technologies that inhabit
this area is wide: statistical analysis, data mining, process
mining, predictive analytics, predictive modeling, business
process modeling and additionally complex event
processing.
With the advent of big data, analytics has become “big
analytics” with organizations diving into large heaps of data
that previously was not available or usable.
Part of the challenge is to be able to manage the data flow
so that power users and analytics users have the data they
need in the right place at the right time.

43. Agility is often discussed with DV. Explain where that comes in
and how it makes an organization more agile?
How do you see DV enabling companies that are embracing a
Hybrid Data Ecosystem? Why is data integration part of this
paradigm shift?
Is DV technology fast enough to keep pace with the sophisticated
needs of these maturing analytics users?
How do address highly distributed data especially when it’s
geographically remote and has inherent latency?
What’s changed in DV technology since the 90’s when similar
technology was labeled virtual DW’s, Federation and EII in the
2000’s and failed to get traction with DW purists?
Should companies could/should attempt to implement DV
company wide or are point solutions the best way to go?

Where does Data Quality fit into DV? Does Composite offer DQ

opportunity? Is it for Hadoop only?
How does Composite go beyond simple Hadoop connectors to

points working their way into the data ecosystem?

power users?
