It's all about big data
1. What I learned from IBM Business
Analytics Summit, Toronto, April 2013
Yuxin Tu, Ph.D.
It’s All About Big Data
2. The Era of Big Data
Four dimensions of big data
1) Volume
2) Velocity
3) Variety
4)Veracity
3. 1) Volume
Retail companies collect customer feedback
through online survey to improve their services
Energy companies covert billions of annual meter
reading to better predict power consumption
Banks, mobile phone companies are using social
media data to understand consumers’ behavior
patterns and factors influencing consumers to
make a purchase.
4. 2) Velocity
Companies need to process data with a much
faster speed. For time-sensitive processes such
as catching fraud, credit card companies have to
react immediately to avoid possible loss.
5. 3) Variety
Big data is any type of data - structured and
unstructured data such as text, audio, video, click
streams, log files and more. New insights are
found when analyzing these data types together.
It requires analysts to be well-grounded in both
quantitative and qualitative analysis as well as
tech-savvy to analyze data from images, video,
and internet data such as Google analytics.
6. 4)Veracity
1 in 3 business leaders don’t trust the information
they use to make decisions.
How can you act upon information if you don’t
trust it?
Establishing trust in big data presents a huge
challenge as the variety and number of sources
grows.
