Big Data Is Going Mainstream!
Explore Enterprise IT's Two Biggest
Game Changers – Big Data & Cloud
Computing – Under One Roof |
| |
Come to New York in June and get yourself fully
up to date with the Big Data revolution! |
|
There is little doubt that Big Data solutions will have an increasing role in the Enterprise IT mainstream over time. Get a jump on that rapidly evolving trend at Big Data Expo 2012 New York, which we are introducing in June co-located with 10th Cloud Expo – being held June 11 - 14, 2012, at the Javits Convention Center In New York City.
As advanced data storage, access and analytics technologies aimed at handling high-volume and/or fast moving data all move center stage, aided by the cloud computing boom, Big Data Expo is the single most effective event for you to learn how to use you own enterprise data – processed in the cloud – most effectively to drive value for your business.
A recent Gartner report predicts that the volume of enterprise data overall will increase by a phenomenal 650% over the next five years.
These two unstoppable enterprise IT trends, Cloud Computing and Big Data, will converge in New York at Big Data Expo 2012 New York – being held June 11 - 14, 2012, at the Javits Convention Center In New York City.
We are offering in New York a vast selection of technical and strategic breakout sessions, General Sessions, Industry Keynotes, our signature discussion "Power Panels" and a bustling Expo floor complete with two busy Demo Theaters so that as a delegate you can kick the tires of solutions and offerings, and discuss one-on-one with all the leading Cloud and Big Data players what they are offering and how to make use of it in your particular situation.
Just as Big Data and Cloud solutions will be side by side on the Expo floor, so they are in the conference program. We're including below a sampler of the breakouts you can look forward to in the Big Data part of the overall technical program...and if you look at the welter of company logos at the very bottom you'll get a foretaste of the hundreds of companies in attendance on the Expo floor.
The surest way to help yourself and your company obtain maximum value from your enterprise data and to understand why Big Data is going mainstream is by attending Big Data Expo 2012 New York.

See you in The Big Apple in June! |

| Stake Your Company's Claim to Share of the $100 Billion+ Big Data Industry! |
|
The Big Data industry, already worth $100 billion+, is growing twice as fast as the software business as a whole. It is so strategic to the future of Enterprise IT that giants like Oracle, IBM, Microsoft, and SAP have now between them spent more than $15 billion acquiring software firms specializing in data management and analytics. .
Forward-thinking organizations realize that Big Data requires a new class of technology, so join us in New York at Big Data Expo and learn about the innovative solutions that are already leading the way.
As the management and analysis of massive amounts of data becomes an industry in its own right, is your own company up to speed?

 Big Data and the Cloud
Anjul Bhambhri - VP, Big Data & Streams, IBM
Any enterprise can now apply the transformative power of cloud computing to reinvent the way it does business and improve economics. For example, cloud-based, real-time analytics can help save more than 50% in business insight-related costs, and collaborative business process services can help increase employee productivity by 25%. Organizations in every industry, regardless of size or geography are embracing cloud computing as a way to reduce the complexity and costs associated with traditional IT approaches.

Centralized clouds not the way to go for global expansion because of data needing to stay in region, performance and latency issues and costs
|
 The Growing Big Data Tools Landscape
David Lucas - Chief Strategy Officer, GCE
Hadoop, MapReduce, Hive, Hbase, Lucene, Solr?

End-to-end tests need to pass through multiple dependent systems, which are commonly unavailable, evolving, or difficult-to-access for testing.
Accessing such systems often involves transaction and bandwidth fees.
Teams need to test and tune the system under test against a realistic and broad range of performance and ...

Best Recent Articles on Cloud Computing & Big Data Topics  By Jeremy Geelan The Arlington, Virginia-based National Science Foundation has just released its "Report on Support for Cloud Computing" - in response to the America Competes Reauthorization Act of 2010, Section 524.
It is an absolute must-read for all concerned with current and future research projects in Cloud Computing. Reads: 3,137  By Jeremy Geelan "The volume of data we're generating now from machines pales in comparison to the volume of data we'll soon generate from our own bodies," says data security expert Dave Asprey. Writing in a Trend Micro blog, Asprey - who is one of the leaders in the emerging Quantified Self movement - explains his vision of a world in which personal biometrical data is shared via the cloud. Reads: 4,595  By Wolfram Jost Cloud computing has caught the attention of business leaders around the world in every
industry because of its enormous transformative potential. Visionary companies know that
the value of the cloud is far greater than the current focus solely on technology and operating
costs: when combined with a collaborative approach to designing processes, cloud computing
will change how we do business.

Want to understand in just hours what experts have spent many hundreds of days deciphering?
Cloud computing is a technology that has rapidly evolving peppered with a lot of hype along the way. Customers find it hard to navigate through this and make sense of what aspects of this technology will give them real business benefit.
Cloud Computing Bootcamp, led by our 2012 Bootcamp Instructor Larry Carvalho, is a great way to get a practical understanding of this technology. We offer multiple days of actionable insight into what vendor offerings are currently available and help you comprehend their strategy.
The ever-popular Bootcamp, which is now held regularly around the world, is being held in conjunction with the 10th Cloud Expo, June 11-14, 2012, at the Javits Center, New York, NY. Reads: 5,517  By Larry Bettino Did you know that ninety percent of the data in the world has been created in the last two years? Every day, we create 2.5 quintillion (or 2.518) bytes of data, according to IBM.
As corporations across all industries globally are struggling with how to retain, aggregate and analyze this mounting volume of what the industry refers to as Big Data, it also provides a unique opportunity for innovative startups that recognize the business prospects Big Data presents. Big Data is not just unlocking new information but new sources of economic and business value.
Interactivity is driving Big Data, with people and machines both consuming and creating it. Digital companies focused on becoming good at aggregating and analyzing the data created by the end users of their product, who then provide their customers with solid insights taken from that data are at a distinct competitive advantage over others in the marketplace.

Reads: 32,754  By Kevin Hartig Cloud computing is becoming one of the next industry buzz words. It joins the ranks of terms including: grid computing, utility computing, virtualization, clustering, etc.
Cloud computing overlaps some of the concepts of distributed, grid and utility computing, however it does have its own meaning if contextually used correctly. The conceptual overlap is partly due to technology changes, usages and implementations over the years.
Trends in usage of the terms from Google searches shows Cloud Computing is a relatively new term introduced in the past year. There has also been a decline in general interest of Grid, Utility and Distributed computing.
Likely they will be around in usage for quit a while to come. But Cloud computing has become the new buzz word driven largely by marketing and service offerings from big corporate players like Google, IBM and Amazon.
