Big Data will Play in 2013, and Reality on an Information System could be in 2013

“The staid old world of databases is developing faster and faster, with startups addressing new data problems and established companies innovating on their platforms. Web-based analytics tools are connecting to web-based data. And everything’s mobile.”

I read a good article whitepaper from a our Partner Tableau for intelligence software they outlined the 10 concepts that are becoming reality in 2012/3.

·         10 Intelligence Concepts :

·         Proliferation of data stores.

·         Forecasting and predictive analytics become common.

·         Mobile BI moves up a weight class.

·         Visual analytics wins Best Picture

·         Cloud BI grows up.

·         The value of text and other unstructured data is (finally!) recognized.

·         Self-reliance is the new self-service.

·         Hadoop is Real

·         Collaboration is not a feature, it’s a reality.

“2013 is the year we will recognize this story as a fairy tale.

The organization that has all its data in one place does not exist. Moreover, why would you want to do it? Big data could be in places like Teradata and Hadoop. Transactional data might be in Oracle or SQL Server. The right data stores for the right data and workload will be seen as one of the hallmarks of a great IT organization, not a problem to be fixed.”

All these concepts align with what we seeing and I will expand on but I thought this could be a good read to many of you, even though it is focused on Business Intelligence this applies to Industrial Infomration Systems:
