Extremely large data sets that may be analysed computationally to reveal patterns, trends, and associations, especially relating to human behavior and interactions.

1. What is Big Data?

2. why is there
such buzz around
BIG DATA?

3. Isn’t Big Data
just big hype?

4. ... How big is BIG?

5. What is it that we are
really talking about?

6. “Big Data is the frontier of a firm's ability to
store, process, and access (SPA) all the data
it needs to operate effectively, make
decisions, reduce risks, and serve
customers.”
-- Forrester

8. “Big Data in general is defined as high
volume, velocity and variety information
assets that demand cost-effective,
innovative forms of information processing
for enhanced insight and decision making.”

10. “Big data is data that exceeds the
processing capacity of conventional
database systems. The data is too big,
moves too fast, or doesn't fit the strictures of
your database architectures. To gain value
from this data, you must choose an
alternative way to process it.” -- O’Reilly

17. Let’s look at
Big Data
in a different way.

18. What was your
first computer?

20. What was its
“Big Data” limit?

22. Let’s try again…

38. “Utah Governor Herbert on June 11, 2012 told
the annual meeting of the National Governors'
Association that the NSA's 1,500,000 square foot
data center being built outside Salt Lake City will be
the first facility to house a yottabyte of data.”

39. Big Data is not about the size of the data,
it’s about the value within the data.

40. So, what is
value?

41. Market Intelligence?
Business Intelligence?
Secret Intelligence?

42. Our society is leaving
behind a digital footprint.

43. People are living online and we all are
expressing our attitudes, likes and dislikes,
our opinions and perspectives.

44. We are generating huge
amounts of data.

45. Data with a
lot of information.

46. … and a lot of noise.

47. The ability to hear the signal
from the noise is the key…

48. to unlocking the human conversation
that is taking place around us.

49. Listening to this
conversation
can lead us to…

50. Unexpected Discoveries

51. Case Study

54. “House of Cards” is one of the first major test cases of this
Big Data-driven creative strategy. For almost a year, Netflix
executives have told us that their detailed knowledge of
Netflix subscriber viewing preferences clinched their
decision to license a remake of the popular and critically
well regarded 1990 BBC miniseries. Netflix’s data indicated
that the same subscribers who loved the original BBC
production also gobbled down movies starring Kevin
Spacey or directed by David Fincher. Therefore, concluded
Netflix executives, a remake of the BBC drama with Spacey
and Fincher attached was a no-brainer, to the point that the
company committed $100 million for two 13-episode
seasons.

55. Did it work?

57. How do you
mine (and mind)
all this data?

58. Most people don’t know
what to do with all the data
that they already have…

59. Get Big
