The average age of a company listed on the S&P 500 has fallen from almost 60 years old in the 1950s to less than 20 years old today. Innovative companies that are willing to embrace transformative technologies make the list today, while businesses that are hesitant to embrace change risk becoming obsolete.
Innovators use big data solutions as a competitive advantage to increase revenue, reduce cost, and improve cash flow. Turn big data into actionable insights with Oracle Analytics Cloud.
We identified the big data opportunities in front of you and how to take advantage of them:
-Big data and its architecture
-Why a big data strategy is imperative to remaining relevant
-How Oracle Analytics Cloud can help you connect people, places, data, and systems to fundamentally change how you analyze, understand, and act on information

Opportunity
18. 18
Use Case:
Customer Segmentation
& Offers
Increase agility and reduce response
times to improve customer engagement
and satisfaction
Marketing teams can dynamically target messaging and
adjust outreach frequency based on variable data.
For example, retailers can create hyper-targeted
campaigns to users based on location and weather
conditions. Marketers can quickly adjust these
campaign parameters if a new line of apparel is
released.
19. 19
Use Case:
Customer-Centric
Analytics
Real-time insights and seamless
integration across channels taking lead
with loyalty, efficiency, and agility
Email Marketing - Targeted discounts at key moments in
the lifecycle, and to select customer segments, to deepen
brand relationships.
OmniChannel Marketing - Single, unified view of the
customer -- and seamless user experience -- across
channels. Ability to tailor communication on one platform
to a user’s engagement on another.
Predictive Marketing - Predicting customer lifetime value
(CLV) based on a customer’s first purchased product or
acquisition channel; identifying which customers are most
likely to churn.
20. 20
Use Case:
Operational Efficiency -
Lower Cost and Drive Growth
Improve performance of existing
internal processes across business
operations, IT, development &
testing
Optimize supply chain including
inventory management
Accelerate regulatory compliance
reporting, days to minutes
21. 21
Use Case:
Predictive Maintenance
Machine Learning - Neural Networks
Using neural networks to predict attributes
of the performance of a pump. This might be
part of a predictive maintenance use case,
where an organization is looking to prevent
mechanical failures, or issues that impact
production of some chemical.

Big Data Best Practices
Converge various data engineering/science operations onto a coherent and comprehensive platform.
Doing this improves efficiency and effectiveness of a big data solution.
Choose Cloud for a Big Data Solution
• Avoid the complex installation and configuration of the various Big Data frameworks
• Concentrate instead on the business value
• Stay up to date with continuously evolving open source technologies
• Start small and focused but with scaling out in mind from the start
• Infrastructure elasticity at different independent levels: Cluster scale up/down, in/out; Storage,
Compute (CPU and Memory)
• Pay for processing when needed, as much as needed
50. 50
Big Data Best Practices
Big data is not only a technology solution, but a business driver
• Data accessible to the right people, not just data scientists and IT
• Empower business analysts and end users
• Make data lake readily accessible through a variety of tools (seamless access to HDFS, DB
through web, alerts and mobile voice recognition)
Machine learning is key to success
• Aim at automating data preparation; this allows you to easily scale and be more productive
• Integration of external data with enterprise data in a secure, scalable and reliable manner is
essential to success
• Machine learning is key to success when dealing with big data

Traditionally: “We calculate our Profit Margin in this way, or we derive Employee Transfer Rates in that way.”
Organizations: “We know we need to use social data or we need to data mine the logs generated from our devices, and we have an idea of how this may be beneficial for our business,
but we don’t know how exactly and in what way specifically. That is something we need to discover.”

With OAC, complexity of dealing with diverse data sources can be seamless to end users. For example, with OAC query re-direction, an end user looking at a dashboard may be looking at data from HDFS that OAC queries using Hive/Impala/Spark language, or it could be data aggregated in a relational database. The end user wouldn’t need to know. Based on the user’s interactions with the dashboard, OAC will automatically figure out where is the best source of data. Typically, querying HDFS is slower than querying a data warehouse. So OAC goes to the data source that makes most sense for what the user is asking for.
Data accessible to end users: First Data Engineers (setup platform, integrations, security, admin), then Data Scientists, but still not getting real value.
For example, from Taleo, Fusion Apps, Service Cloud, etc.
Apply incremental ingestion
For example, if you are analyzing customer buying patterns: Use Data Flow to match Online Sales Transactions from a data warehouse, or an Ecommerce system, with Website or Mobile App User Interaction logs residing in a HDFS. We do this to find out how efficient the Ecom website or the app is. How many clicks does it take for someone to browse through online products and to finally place an order?
Another common example is an HR use case. You want to track employees from the time they are candidates for an open position in Taleo, and look at their career progression in your HCM system. Use Data Flow to mash up the different data sets together for reporting.
