Big Data Humor: Statistical Voyeurism

This study was designed to document key perceptions, challenges, and successes by focusing on data organization, integration, security, and definitional clarification to address key areas of concern and interest in ongoing data lake adoption. The intent of the survey and this corresponding report is to understand and share the current and planned adoption of technologies in the Hadoop ecosystem, intended specifically for a data lake strategy, and to learn how adopting companies are addressing critical data lake success factors, including rethinking data for the long-term, establishing governance first, and tackling security needs upfront. The survey and report also identify emergent areas of concern and new areas of clarification needed for data lake maturity.
