SQL In Hadoop: Big Data Innovation Without the RiskInside Analysis
The Briefing Room with Dr. Robin Bloor and Actian

Innovation often implies risk, which is why businesses have many issues to weigh when considering change. Yet the remarkable growth of data is driving many traditional systems into the ground, forcing information workers to take a critical look at their existing tools. Technologies like Hadoop offer economical solutions to big data management, but to truly take advantage of its capabilities, organizations must modernize their infrastructure.
Register for this episode of The Briefing Room to learn from veteran Analyst Dr. Robin Bloor as he explains how and why organizations should improve legacy systems. He’ll be briefed by Todd Untrecht of Actian, who will tout his company’s Actian Vortex, a SQL-in-Hadoop solution. He will show how integrating a SQL engine directly in the Hadoop cluster can lead to faster analytics and greater control, while still maintaining existing investments.

Digital Supply Chains & the Internet of ThingsKevin Ross
Kevin Ross, Senior Director of Supply Chain Transformation and New Business Model Enablement at Cisco will share their journey to a Digitized supply chain. For Cisco, this shift involves making big bets on five emerging technologies to digitize their supply chain: IoT or the Internet of Things, Big Data and Analytics, Cloud Based Applications, Mobility and Collaboration.
A Journey to a Serverless Business Intelligence, Machine Learning and Big Dat...DataWorks Summit
In this talk we will describe the journey we made with one of our customers, Volotea, to deploy a serverless Business Intelligence (BI), Machine Learning (ML) and Big Data (BD) platform on the Cloud. The new platform leverages Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) Cloud services, and it is the result of the reengineering and extension of an existing platform based on Cloud Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) services and bare-metal systems. Managing and maintaining BI, ML and BD platforms based on bare-metal or IaaS deployments is not a straightforward task, and as size and complexity grow, we often find ourselves spending more and more time in tasks that are rather administrative, more than of a development or analytics nature. That is exactly what Volotea realized, and together we envisioned and executed a plan to lift and reengineer their platform into a new solution that leverages Microsoft Azure PaaS services. We have delivered a solution that manages to greatly reduce the administrative burden as well as the technical complexity when implementing new use cases. The new platform is based on the Microsoft Azure stack and it includes Azure Data Lake, Azure Data Lake Analytics, Azure Data Factory, Azure Machine Learning and Azure SQL Database. Join us in this talk where we will share our lessons learned and we will discuss how to plan and execute such an endeavor.
The Vortex of Change - Digital Transformation (Presented by Intel)Cloudera, Inc.
The vortex of change continues all around us – inside the company, with our customers and partners. A new norm is upon us. Business models are being turned upside down – the hunters now the hunted, global equalization – size is no longer a guarantee of success. The innovative survive and thrive…the nervous and slow go under...what does all this change means for you? Find out how does Intel’s strengths help our customers in this world of change.
Insurance companies are facing similar challenges like all other disrupted market segments like the change of customer expectations and hence the need of differentiating itself new as a brand in a challenging market environment. But at the same time, it underlies a very strict regulatory pressure.

Data at rest, data in motion - regardless of its trajectory, data remains the lifeblood of today's information economy. But finding a way to bridge old systems with new opportunities requires an innovative data strategy, one that takes advantage of multiple processing technologies. With the optimal architecture in place, companies can harness years of work in traditional information systems, while opening the door to the flood of new data sources available.
Register for this episode of The Briefing Room to learn from veteran Analyst Dr. Robin Bloor, as he explains how data virtualization and other data technologies fundamentally change what's possible with data access, movement and analysis. He'll be briefed by David Besemer of Cisco, who will discuss how this new kind of data strategy can enable the integration of legacy systems, Cloud computing and the Internet of Things. He'll also answer questions about how Big Data and the IoT are helping to redefine the practice of data management.
