Genomics is upon us, made possible by big data and the technologies designed to support it. Doctors, who historically used clinical data, and researchers, who historically used genomic data, are now increasingly focused on analyzing the same single data set: introducing the opportunity to share bodies of knowledge, fostering collaborative innovation, and driving toward higher standards of care.
However, this data is enormous – volumes of genomic data are expected to reach two to four exabytes per year by 2025, yet the cost of genetic sequencing has decreased 100-fold over the past 10 years.
Cloudera is helping solve the big data problem with its Apache Hadoop-based platform for large-scale data processing, discovery, and analytics; putting precision medicine within reach.

An Industry in Transition
The pharmaceutical and life sciences sector is well on
the path to transformational change.
The life science product development lifecycle is experiencing a
paradigm shift
Collaboration is the new FIPNET
Efforts to institutionalize operational efficiency and effectiveness are
largely completed
Scientific and technological innovation continue to empower and drive
change
Research applications, platforms, and infrastructure are increasingly
connected and are getting smarter
We are at the cusp of knowledge-based drug discovery and
development

IDC Pillar 2:Big Data and Analytics
Big Data &
Analytics
IDC estimates that the worldwide
Big Data technology and
services market will grow from
$21.3B in 2015 to $48.6B in
2019, a 23.1% CAGR.
While later than expected, big data is
knocking at the door today
Volume, velocity, variety, and value
remain key
Big data was never about storage…it
is about routinely extracting value from
data
It’s more than genomics
Agility in effectively leveraging diverse
public and private data sources will be
key to industry success
Real time and actionable analytics are
the value goal
9. 9
At the Cusp of Big Data-Enabled Knowledge
Key big data:
Genomics, proteomics, metabolomics, other -omics
Medical imaging, current and retrospective clinical data
Healthcare EMR, payer data
Social and RWE data (both public and private)
We are at the cusp of mainstream big data
Outstanding big data issues:
Real-time global access and analysis
Data compatibility
Increasing regulatory complexity
10. 10
Looking Forward
Big data is just data in the life sciences
Data continues to increase in volume and
diversity
The cloud is the future of secure agility in
routinely handling big data in the industry
Automated intelligence and cognitive computing
are the next analytics challenge
The ability to deliver ad hoc analytics will be key
to routinely demonstrating organizational value
In thinking about the industry’s ongoing big data efforts, we
expect the following:
