Data Tactics provides systems engineering and integration services focused on big data architecture and unified data spaces. They have experience architecting solutions managing petabytes of data across multiple security enclaves and domains. Their unified data space approach aims to break down data silos by incorporating rich semantic context and metadata across structured, unstructured, and multi-modal data sources to enable integration, enrichment, and exploration of data.
Research initiatives to redesign the Internet are popping up all around the globe. Some claim that the Internet must be redesigned from the information point of view. This approach goes under the banner of information-centrism. In the other hand, other initiatives claim that the design must be centered on the services, i.e. the service-centrism or the Internet of services. And there are also those focusing on decoupling host identifiers from locators to improve mobility support. Which is the right path to follow? We contend that none of them alone, but instead, to integrate synergistically them all. We call this approach the Internet of information and services.
Creating an RAD Authoratative Data Environmentanicewick
Sharing data in agencies can be a burden, with users placing data on numerous desktop packages, the idea of sharing becomes impossible. However, new RAD tools allow quick web applications to be developed to replace the Excel, MSAcces, and Filemaker data stores, with real , controlled authoritative database integration.
This presentation defines both the problem space, and the proposed solution.

This presentation addresses how some of the challenges that have historically confronted implementers of markup technologies (SGML and XML) and how DITA, together with some of the usability innovations associated with Web 2.0, can be used to address them. Presented at Content Convergence and Integration in Vancouver (12 March 2008).
TELUS Case Study: GIS for Telecommunicationseventspat
The TELUS TV customer base has tripled over the last two years. To support this growth TELUS initiated a project to liberate data from their spatial data store for TELUS TV marketing, investment and provisioning. This project integrated TELUS corporate data with consumer tools. Consumer tools like Google Maps, Bing Maps and Open Source GIS provide TELUS with a plethora of functionality and data. Like any consumer product, it is not a panacea for corporate users. However, there is a lot of functionality that can be tailored to the needs of utility workflows. Come see specific workflows that show the benefit of mashing-up corporate GIS with Consumer GIS and how others are leveraging consumer GIS to increase their GIS Return on Investment!
Hadoop World 2011: Security Considerations for Hadoop Deployments - Jeremy Gl...Cloudera, Inc.
Security in a distributed environment is a growing concern for most industries. Few face security challenges like the Defense Community, who must balance complex security constraints with timeliness and accuracy. We propose to briefly discuss the security paradigms defined in DCID 6/3 by NSA for secure storage and access of data (the “Protection Level” system). In addition, we will describe the implications of each level on the Hadoop architecture and various patterns organizations can implement to meet these requirements within the Hadoop ecosystem. We conclude with our “wish list” of features essential to meet the federal security requirements.
Wallchart - Data Warehouse Documentation RoadmapDavid Walker
All projects need documentation and many companies provide templates as part of a methodology. This document describes the templates, tools and source documents used by Data Management & Warehousing. It serves two purposes:
• For projects using other methodologies or creating their own set of documents to use as a checklist. This allows the project to ensure that the documentation covers the essential areas for describing the data warehouse.
• To demonstrate our approach to our clients by describing the templates and deliverables that are produced.
Documentation, methodologies and templates are inherently both incomplete and flexible. Projects may wish to add, change, remove or ignore any part of any document. Some may also believe that aspects of one document would sit better in another. If this is the case then users of this document and these templates are encouraged to change them to fit their needs.
Data Management & Warehousing believes that the approach or methodology for building a data warehouse should be to use a series of guides and checklists. This ensures that small teams of relatively skilled resources developing the system can cover all aspects of the project whilst being free to deal with the specific issues of their environment to deliver exceptional solutions, rather than a rigid methodology that ensures that large teams of relatively unskilled staff can meet a minimum standard.
The Teton Project, an ongoing Open Architecture (OA) initiative at Northrop Grumman Electronic Systems (NGES), has adopted the new OMG "DDS for Lightweight CCM" (DDS4CCM) standard as the foundational real-time component framework technology for its Scalable Node Architecture (SNA). SNA is targeted at distributed, real-time, embedded (DRE) and high performance computing (HPC) applications and subsystem/system architectures. This presentation offers the Teton Project's perspective on the advantages of DDS4CCM, a.k.a. Component Based DDS (CBDDS), over a straight DDS-based architectural approach.

MapR announced a few new releases in 2017, and we want to go over those exciting new products and features that are available now. We’d like to invite our customers and partners to this webinar in which members of the MapR product team will share details about the latest updates.
