Is big data just a buzzword -Big data simply explainedVivek Srivastava
Big data helps us to uncover and discover those facets of data which we are not aware of . Using predictive science it helps us to provide insights on which actions can be taken and suggests those actions which will impact the business significantly boosting the revenue or market reach.For example, using large amount of data and appropriate tools, we can categorize different strata of population and build customize products. So whether companies deploy it or not, all depends on what factor constitute the value of company and where the center of value creation lies. It may be money or it may be geographic reach. - Watch this video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ELyOl0fkqNM

Big Data in Malaysia: Emerging Sector Profile 2014Tirath Ramdas
Big Data has become part of everyday organisational parlance. Increasingly, this awareness is being transformed into practice. Support for harnessing data to amplify capabilities and achieve organisational objectives at practitioner and senior management levels is becoming aligned. A report by Forrester on Big Data adoption in Asia Pacific in 2013-2014 observed a trend across all industries of ‘using more types of data, from more sources, to enable timelier better-informed insights’. Similarly in Malaysia, there is growing cultural acceptance that Big Data can and should enhance decision-making processes, although pathways for adoption are not uniformly understood. Nevertheless, we are now observing a transition phase from curiosity and enthusiasm to buy-in and action across startup, corporate, and government organisations. This groundswell of interest fuels the basis of Big Data Malaysia, a networking group for professionals with interest in all things Big Data, including NoSQL, Hadoop, data science, visualisation, business use cases, data governance, open data, and more. Our community has welcomed participation from stakeholders ranging from computer scientists to data journalists, reflecting a broad societal interest in Big Data. Our mission is to encourage high caliber knowledge sharing and to provide a space for professionals with different interests to collaborate. This report grew out of a need to understand in more detail the various networks that Big Data Malaysia helps to connect. In order to support the Big Data ecosystem that we see emerging, we identified critical questions that required further investigation, in particular:
• What are the opportunities and barriers to Big Data activity in Malaysia?
• Who is merely ‘interested’, versus who is actually committed?
• What is the current and future capacity for Big Data talent?
• Where are the critical gaps in training and skills?
• What are the soft inhibitors, including data access, regulation and perception?
There are two parts to this report. The first includes results from a questionnaire, while the latter features interviews conducted in-person or via email. In collaboration with various partners, we devised and distributed a questionnaire online across our networks and collected responses during October 2013. In our final sample, we collected responses from 108 individuals over 90 organisations. As our report will show, these viewpoints represent a diversity of organisational stakeholders and industries in the Big Data space. We followed up with interviews of high-profile respondents for richer insight.
This document lists 7 facts about big data: 1) The amount of data generated in two days now exceeds all data up until 2003. 2) The big data analytics industry is currently worth $3 billion but is expected to grow to $20 billion in 5 years. 3) Harnessing big data could reduce healthcare costs by 8%. It then encourages following their social media accounts to learn more about big data.
The document discusses facts about the growth of big data and how data is generated from many sources. It notes that every person and object generates data, an average person now processes more data than people in history, and data is doubling every two years. It also provides examples of how companies are using big data to personalize experiences, optimize operations, and drive higher sales and conversions.
The document discusses how big data benefits consumers in 5 key ways: 1) It allows companies to improve customer service based on feedback collected from reviews and social media. 2) Product improvements are made based on customer feedback collected online. 3) Big data helps connect consumers with relevant deals and advertisements. 4) Security measures are constantly improving to prevent hacking based on data collected. 5) Big data helps prevent and solve crimes when used by government and law enforcement.
1) By 2020, 75% of businesses will become fully digital but only 30% of digitization efforts will be successful. Also, 40% of enterprises may no longer exist in 10 years if they do not disrupt or get disrupted.
2) The rise of the Internet of Everything will have 5-10x the impact of the internet to date, connecting people, processes, data and things. This will require transforming core processes, new skill sets, partners, business models and products/services.
3) Security challenges are immense with the digitization of everything, as 60% of business leaders are reluctant to innovate due to cyber risks, and the global cybercrime market is estimated at $450 billion to $
The document discusses the challenges of governing internet of things (IoT) devices and data. It notes that as more devices become connected through technologies like artificial intelligence, ensuring privacy, security, and appropriate use of data will become more difficult. It explores approaches to IoT governance taken by the EU and others, including prioritizing privacy by default, transparency, and technological solutions. Developing comprehensive governance strategies and standards that can adapt to rapid technological changes is presented as key to addressing these issues.
Big data can be used for development by analyzing various online and IoT data sources. Insights from big data analytics can help policymakers with early warning, real-time awareness, feedback, and forecasts. Examples show how analyzing mobile phone network data identified population migration patterns after the 2010 Haiti earthquake and predicted the spread of cholera. However, big data implementation faces challenges of integrating multiple disconnected systems and departments within governments. The future envisions connecting all city authorities and sensors to a central network and cloud for real-time collaborative analysis across agencies to improve services.

This document discusses the growth of the Internet of Things (IoT) and the rise of fog computing. It notes that:
- 50 billion devices are expected to be internet-connected by 2020, up from 12.5 billion in 2010, representing rapid growth.
- Most of the world's data is now being generated by IoT devices like sensors and smart objects, creating big data challenges.
- Fog computing is a new distributed computing model that processes data at the edge of the network, near the data sources, to help address these challenges. It extends cloud computing out to endpoints and access networks.
- Open source software will be important for fog computing and IoT, as it has been
Fog computing is a model that processes data closer to IoT devices rather than in the cloud. It addresses the limitations of cloud like high latency and bandwidth issues. Fog extends cloud services by providing computation, storage and applications at the edge of the network. Key applications of fog include connected vehicles, smart grids, smart buildings and healthcare. Fog computing supports mobility, location awareness, low latency and real-time interactions between heterogeneous edge devices and sensors.
This document proposes a "People-Centered Internet" approach for future connectivity and ICT projects. It argues that focusing solely on technology implementation is insufficient, and that projects should track and improve human outcomes. Specifically, it recommends:
1. Collecting data and using closed-loop feedback to simultaneously benefit people and evaluate project effectiveness.
2. Applying techniques used by companies like Google and Amazon to optimize outcomes in other domains like healthcare, education, and supporting underserved populations globally.
3. Developing principles like universal access, affordability, privacy, and individual control to ensure data collection is accountable and beneficial.

Open Innovation - Winter 2014 - Socrata, Inc.Socrata
As innovators around the world push the open data movement forward, Socrata features their stories, successes, advice, and ideas in our quarterly magazine, “Open Innovation.”
The Winter 2014 issue of Open Innovation is out. This special year-in-review edition contains stories about some of the biggest open data achievements in 2013, as well as expert insights into how open data can grow and where it may go in 2014.
Big data from mobile phone use has potential to help international development by providing insights into people's needs, behaviors, and crisis responses. However, privacy concerns, lack of data sharing incentives, and limited human capital for advanced analysis pose challenges. Some organizations are working to address these issues through data sharing partnerships between public, private, and nonprofit sectors and by creating incentives for individuals and companies to contribute anonymized data for social good. If these obstacles can be overcome, mobile data analysis could help governments and aid groups improve services, target resources more efficiently, and respond faster to trends and emergencies.

More than perhaps any technological advance since the dawn of the Internet, the Internet of Everything (IoE) — the networked connection of people, process, data, and things — holds tremendous potential for helping public-sector leaders address their many challenges, including the gap separating citizen expectations and what governments are currently delivering.

What does “BIG DATA” mean for official statistics?Vincenzo Patruno
In our modern world more and more data are generated on the web and produced by sensors in the ever growing number of electronic devices surrounding us. The amount of data and the frequency at which they are produced have led to the concept of 'Big data'. Big data is characterized as data sets of increasing volume, velocity and variety; the 3 V's. Big data is often largely unstructured, meaning that it has no pre-defined data model and/or does not fit well into conventional relational databases.
The document discusses establishing a centralized data infrastructure in India to harness government data for public benefit. It proposes integrating distinct sets of government data, following models of other open data initiatives. A centralized architecture would provide authenticated data and documents to improve targeting of welfare programs while granting selected access to the private sector to spur innovation. Citizens would greatly benefit from consolidated access to relevant data to solve problems and harness data for their own benefit. The goal is to establish data as a public good generated and used for the people.
In this presentation, I tried to succinctly discuss the future technology trends and explain how they can impact the healthcare industry. Also Business Transformation, as a key to tackle, has been discussed.
Data has the potential to create value and empower citizens but can also concentrate economic and political power if misused. An integrated national data system is needed where high-quality data is produced and shared safely among government, civil society, and private sector to inform policies and decisions. Such a system requires stakeholder collaboration, data literacy, and a social contract to ensure data benefits are equitably shared and risks of misuse are mitigated. A global consensus may also be required to realize data's development benefits while protecting security, privacy, and human rights across borders.

Uncontrolled Mobility & Diversity
89% of workers say a mobile device makes them more productive yet only 1 in 5 agencies have an official BYOD policy. Workers are using blurring the lines between work and personal devices, using them often interchangeably without official policy, compromising security.
Interagency Collaboration
Increasing numbers of agencies and sub-agencies, each with their own technology silos that both need to be protected and need to be available as needed for collaboration and better citizen service.

Point – easy to say IT now in innovation and digitization business. Not necessarily easy to do.
While CIO needs to be strategic – also drive operational excellence
Story – MD into tech, took role as CIO big hospital group, leverage his medical knowledge – 1st week on job major DC outage
Quickly adopt technology - but also need to have rational architecture and standards to minimize TCO
Story – Met with VP Operations major bank recently – described it as “14 datacenters full of at least 1 of every infrastructure product made in last 10 years”
Boost Innovation. Use latest and greatest keep up with competitors and changing needs of consumers. Chinese army still hacking at your network.
Boost innovation – but avoid security and compliance issues that arise from mish mash of haphazzard technologies
Point – IT role has to expand. Role can no longer be limited to implementing and maintains systems. BUT – cant give up that role.
AND not OR function
???
Note – interesting Target CEO fired for breach under his watch
Kathleen sebelius – HSS – basically took fall for website launch failure
Free market – done what Sarbanes Oxley never achieved.
Hold Executive accountable for Tech compliance
Summarize problem space – then move to solution space
Budgets are flat
With Ongoing focus on cost reduction and efficiency – IT’s ability to deliver goes up a bit over time.
But not fast enough.
Business expectations going exponential.
Need to become strategic partner and “make IT happen” without long planning cycles to deliver speed in mobile cloud era.
Still need to focus on blocking and tackling - business critical system maintenance, support, security, compliance.
Not just problem of two masters.
Challenge - budgets not rising with user and LOB expectations.
You Need to - carve bigger piece of same pie to fund cloud-era innovation.
New analyst research shows that ‘Skills gap” is rising up CIO list of top concerns.
You need to – find solution that allows you to use and modify existing personnel
Q: How many of you think there is a pool of available Python or node.js developers in your city?
People want a button to push. Not want to fill out a service request or talk to help desk.
You need to - Reduce friction – way business interacts with IT.
Your path to killer software – its an IT project. How many handoffs. How many meetings?
Need to give IT staff and developers their own button – give them what they want when they want it.
Legacy system- Uber not have complex existing legacy back end to deal with.
Takes more time to add field to enterprise Marketing system integrated with salesforce.com – than takes to write Uber app from scratch.
I’m from silicon valley - joke at cloud meet up by VC funded startups with no revenue – “your problem, is you already have a successful business you have to design around”…
Story - DevOps conference recently –someone from eBay presented – said it took something like 150 IT tickets to deploy a new system.
Story – VMware IT – call it human middleware. 40 times a year - Dev needs new instance Oracle ERP – deployed with our custom Customer Portal – load balancers etc.
Call IT. IT reply – “lets schedule a planning meeting…” 6 weeks – 40 man weeks of work.
Then dev spend another week debugging before can start development project.
We’ve replaced human middleware – now click button, 27 hours, 80 different application components.
Goal 24 – 18 provision, 6 integration and functional testing
People don’t believe us until we show them. Full oracle ERP, full custom web portal, integration, load balancers, web servers, integration testing, functional testing. 27 hours.
Talk about innovation. Developers now ask for a Dev instance – “want to try something” never would ask before.
IT never says no.
Developers never have to debug to start work.
Really game changer
Ok – You need both. Business speed and agility. Also need maintain control and efficiency.
In fact – in mobile cloud era – even more important for IT to maintain control than in previous era.
What are your options?
At the same time, there is an opportunity and real need for IT to understand these new web and mobile platforms and partner with the business to build new capabilities so that your company can be the disruptor, not the disrupted.
But, with all change, it must come without creating undue risk in any system. Security threats are growing and it’s not enough to just guard the castle walls any more. The bad guys are inside, and you have to find them before they get out with your assets.
<CLICK>
All of this is leading to a new IT agenda. An IT agenda that will reduce costs, increase speed for new growth and balance risk.
First, by building a completely virtualized and automated Software-Defined Data Center, you will lower the cost of running IT and provide the foundation for faster, more agile IT. This Software-Defined Data Center provides a seamless cloud environment that can be extended from private cloud to the public cloud, forming a secure hybrid cloud – removing barriers to providing self-service and the highest service levels ever.
Next, you will need to build new applications in an agile way, with new platforms and target those applications at mobile devices. Those mobile devices all managed by IT to secure your corporate information, while driving employee productivity and satisfaction. As you start to store and analyze the massive data sets that are available, you will gain new insights about your customers and your business. This requires a “Data Lake” to store these vast amounts of information, and provide the ability to analyze and correlate it.
Finally, an adaptive, data-driven approach to security that watches and analyzes all activity so that you can quickly recognize the anomalies and act before it’s too late.
We've talked about technology, it's not just about technology. Also need strategy and operating model. Then our consulting or partner consulting.
