The Briefing Room with Krish Krishnan and IBM
Slides from the Live Webcast on July 24, 2012
The big deal with Big Data is the potential for this phenomenon to redefine the modern Information Architecture. Though still in its infancy, the concept of a Big Data Platform promises to do just that. By incorporating the array of options now available -- massively parallel processing, streaming technology (including complex event processing), semantics, in-memory and more -- a Big Data Platform can solve a whole range of problems before they even occur; while also opening the door to a new era of applications that are custom-designed for addressing highly specific business needs.
Check out this episode of The Briefing Room to learn from Analyst Krish Krishnan, who will outline a vision for the Big Data Platform. He’ll be briefed by Anjul Bhambhri, Vice President of Big Data for IBM, who will tout her company’s strategy for leveraging the power of both Big Data and traditional information assets. In particular, she’ll discuss how a combination of IBM technologies can help organizations achieve truly disruptive change in their organizations. Solutions demonstrated will include: Big Insights, Streams, Vivisimo’s Velocity, and Netezza.

5. Disruptive Innovation produces an unexpected new
market and value network, and is usually geared
toward a new set of customers.
The goal, of course, is to turn a disruptive
technology into a sustaining technology, ie., one
that overtakes or adequately competes with
incumbent technologies.
Disruptive technologies are game-changers and often
pave the way for major improvements in the way
things get done.
