About: Today there is a widespread focus on the 'how' in relation to problem solving. How can we gain better knowledge of what consumers want, or need? How can we be more efficient, reduce the cost to serve, or grow the lifetime value of a customer? But, how do you move to a place where you are not only solving a problem, you are redesigning the entire strategic potential of that problem? You are being armed with insight on what the problem is.
Data and innovation offer huge potential to revolutionise all markets. There is an opportunity to be one step ahead of the need, to redesign journeys and enhance enterprise strategies. To do this you need access to the most advanced analytics but also the best quality, including variations and types of data, and then the technology that can act on this insight. Data science can present a unique opportunity for uncovered growth and accelerate your business through strategic innovation – fast. In this session you will hear more about how today's analytics can move from a single task, to an ongoing strategic opportunity. An opportunity that helps you move at the speed of the market and helps you maximise every opportunity.

Predictive project analytics: Will your project be successful?Deloitte Canada
We may not often ask ourselves whether our project will succeed for fear of the answer. But 63 percent of projects either fail or struggle to meet their budget or completion objectives. The more complex the project, the more likely it is to fail. A recent, high-profile example of this was the roll-out of the U.S. government’s healthcare.gov program. While the government acted quickly to fix major problems with the website, the glitch led many Americans to delay their decision to join the program and turned many others off altogether. Several factors contributed to the website’s failure, including incorrectly forecasting the performance requirements, not giving sufficient time for appropriate testing and underestimating the complexity of the project. The same shortcomings doom other projects, too.
To avoid making similar mistakes, leading organizations need to identify in advance which projects are more likely to end badly and how to give them the best shot at success. Predictive project analytics, or PPA, is a new approach that leverages advanced analytics to evaluate a given project’s likelihood of success. Read how it works and how it can help your organization.
Business Analytics, "Second Edition teaches the fundamental concepts of the emerging field of business analytics and provides vital tools in understanding how data analysis works in today s organizations. Students will learn to apply basic business analytics principles, communicate with analytics professionals, and effectively use and interpret analytic models to make better business decisions. Included access to commercial grade analytics software gives students real-world experience and career-focused value. Author James Evans takes a balanced, holistic approach and looks at business analytics from descriptive, and predictive perspectives.

Streaming analytics webinar | 9.13.16 | Guest: Mike Gualtieri from ForresterCubic Corporation
Business success relies heavily on taking the right action, at the right time, all the time. And actions are dictated by data. But the batch-oriented, collect-store-contemplate model employed by Big Data Analytics technologies is incomplete because it does not make use of live data in real time. Without live, real-time data insights gathered are not up-to-date, and cannot accurately inform applications and services that would benefit from continuous, real-time context for time-sensitive decisions.
To thrive, businesses need to be able to use both live and historical data in their applications and services, continuously, concurrently, and correctly and the only technology currently capable of handling it is streaming analytics. Streaming analytics computes data right now, when it can be analyzed and put to good use to make applications of all kinds contextual and smarter.
This webinar held in collaboration with Forrester, Inc., showcased how streaming analytics applications can be built in minutes, to:
- Aggregate, enrich, and analyze a high throughput of data from multiple, disparate live data sources and in any format to identify patterns, detect opportunities, automate actions, and dynamically adapt
- Easily ingest streaming data from multiple disparate sources to multiple sources, within and between cloud and on-premises environments
- Analyze and act on data as it arrives, without needing to store, eliminating unnecessary security risks and storage costs
- Enable real-time analytics with existing business intelligence and data assets.
Data Analytics has become a crucial part of the IT industry, as businesses strive to extract meaningful insights from the massive amounts of data they generate. APTRON's Data Analytics Training in Gurgaon is designed to equip learners with the knowledge and skills required to become proficient in the field.
I volunteered my time to share about big data to those looking to understand the space.
This was for Networking with Grace, a group that is focused on helping those get back to work. I put this presentation together to help people learn about big data and how to transition their skill sets to the space.

Speed Up Your Apache Cassandra™ Applications: A Practical Guide to Reactive P...Matt Stubbs
Speaker: Cedrick Lunven, Developer Advocate, DataStax
Speaker Bio: Cedrick is a Developer Advocate at DataStax where he finds opportunities to share his passions by speaking about developing distributed architectures and implementing reference applications for developers. In 2013, he created FF4j, an open source framework for Feature Toggle which he still actively maintains. He is now contributor in JHipster team.
Talk Synopsis: We have all introduced more or less functional programming and asynchronous operations into our applications in order to speed up and distribute treatments (e.g., multi-threading, future, completableFuture, etc.). To build truly non-blocking components, optimize resource usage, and avoid "callback hell" you have to think reactive—everything is an event.
From the frontend UI to database communications, it’s now possible to develop Java applications as fully reactive with frameworks like Spring WebFlux and Reactor. With high throughput and tunable consistency, applications built on top of Apache Cassandra™ fit perfectly within this pattern.
DataStax has been developing Apache Cassandra drivers for years, and in the latest version of the enterprise driver we introduced reactive programming.
During this session we will migrate, step by step, a vanilla CRUD Java service (SpringBoot / SpringMVC) into reactive with both code review and live coding. Bring home a working project!

Date: 14th November 2018
Location: Governance and MDM Theatre
Time: 10:30 - 11:00
Speaker: Mike Ferguson
Organisation: IBS
About: For most organisations today, data complexity has increased rapidly. In the area of operations, we now have cloud and on-premises OLTP systems with customers, partners and suppliers accessing these applications via APIs and mobile apps. In the area of analytics, we now have data warehouse, data marts, big data Hadoop systems, NoSQL databases, streaming data platforms, cloud storage, cloud data warehouses, and IoT-generated data being created at the edge. Also, the number of data sources is exploding as companies ingest more and more external data such as weather and open government data. Silos have also appeared everywhere as business users are buying in self-service data preparation tools without consideration for how these tools integrate with what IT is using to integrate data. Yet new regulations are demanding that we do a better job of governing data, and business executives are demanding more agility to remain competitive in a digital economy. So how can companies remain agile, reduce cost and reduce the time-to-value when data complexity is on the up?
In this session, Mike will discuss how companies can create an information supply chain to manufacture business-ready data and analytics to reduce time to value and improve agility while also getting data under control.

Date: 14th November 2018
Location: Self-Service Analytics Theatre
Time: 13:50 - 14:20
Speaker: Stephanie McReynolds
Organisation: Alation
About: Raw data is proliferating at an enormous rate. But so are our derived data assets - hundreds of dashboards, thousands of reports, millions of transformed data sets. Self-service analytics have ensured that this noise is making it increasingly hard to understand and trust data for decision-making. This trust gap is holding your organisation back from business outcomes.
European analytics leaders have found a way to close the gap between data and decision-making. From MunichRe to Pfizer and Daimler, analytics teams are adopting data catalogues for thousands of self-service analytics users.
Join us in this session to hear how data catalogues that activate data by incorporating machine learning can:
• Increase analyst productivity 20-40%

Big Data LDN 2018: DATA APIS DON’T DISCRIMINATEMatt Stubbs
Date: 13th November 2018
Location: Self-Service Analytics Theatre
Time: 15:50 - 16:20
Speaker: Nishanth Kadiyala
Organisation: Progress
About: The exploding API economy, combined with an advanced analytics market projected to reach $30 billion by 2019, is forcing IT to expose more and more data through APIs. Business analysts, data engineers, and data scientists are still not happy because their needs never really made it into the existing API strategies. This is because most APIs are designed for application integration, but not for the data workers who are looking for APIs that facilitate direct data access to run complex analytics. Data APIs are specifically designed to provide that frictionless data access experience to support analytics across standard interoperable interfaces such as OData (REST) or ODBC/JDBC (SQL). Consider expanding your API strategy to service the developers with open analytics in this $30 billion market.
Big Data LDN 2018: A TALE OF TWO BI STANDARDS: DATA WAREHOUSES AND DATA LAKESMatt Stubbs
Date: 13th November 2018
Location: Self-Service Analytics Theatre
Time: 14:30 - 15:00
Speaker: Zaf Khan
Organisation: Arcadia Data
About: The use of data lakes continue to grow, and a recent survey by Eckerson Group shows that organizations are getting real value from their deployments. However, there’s still a lot of room for improvement when it comes to giving business users access to the wealth of potential insights in the data lake.
While the data management aspect has been fairly well understood over the years, the success of business intelligence (BI) and analytics on data lakes lags behind. In fact, organizations often struggle with data lakes because they are only accessible by highly-skilled data scientists and not by business users. But BI tools have been able to access data warehouses for years, so what gives?
In this talk, we’ll discuss:
• Why traditional BI tools are architected well for data warehouses, but not data lakes.
• Why every organization should have two BI standards: one for data warehouses and one for data lakes.
• Innovative capabilities provided by BI for data lakes
