“Our thought process was that Big Data + a better Workflow = Big Workflow. We coined it as an industry term to denote a faster, more accurate and more cost-effective big data analysis process. It is not a product or trademarked name of Adaptive’s, and we hope it becomes a common term in the industry that is synonymous with a more efficient big data analysis process.”

“Our main differentiator from other machine-learning companies is that we’re focused not just on high-performance algorithms, but on delivering an end-to-end application for business users. While we continue to push boundaries of cutting-edge machine learning technology, we made an early decision not to get sucked into the “algorithms arms race.” We hold a fundamental belief that the best analytics technologies will fail unless they can be implemented in a timeframe relevant to the business and interpreted by the ultimate decision makers.”

Interview: Glassbeam Joins Forces with HDS for Complex Infrastructure Management

“Machine logs contain simple and complex data – some logs contain time stamped data (i.e. syslogs) that are tactical events or errors used by sys admins to troubleshoot IT infrastructure. But other logs have more complex, unstructured or multi-structured text with sections on configuration info, statistics and other non-time stamped data. To make sense of the data in these logs, one needs a powerful language and processing engine to provide meaning and structure to the information. Once structure is defined, complex analytics and trend reporting can be performed.”

Intel’s Boyd Davis Talks Predictive Analytics and March Madness
March 13, 2014 by Leave a Comment
“Intel’s goal is to encourage more innovative and creative uses for data as well as to demonstrate how big data and analytics technologies are impacting many facets of our daily lives, including sports. For example, coaches and their staffs are using real-time statistics to adjust games on-the-fly and throughout the season. From intelligent cameras to wearable sensors, a massive amount of data is being produced that, if analyzed in real-time, can provide a significant competitive advantage. Intel is among those making big data technologies more affordable, available, and easier to use for everything from helping develop new scientific discoveries and business models to even gaining the upper hand on good-natured predictions of sporting events.”

Interview: How Anaplan Delivers Innovation in Real-Time Data Modeling
March 7, 2014 by Leave a Comment
“The Anaplan revolution is to provide a big-data engine for business users, removing the need to work with data scientists. The ability to scale your data – 100 billion cells in one model, with 1 billion items in a list – will prove to be the key to proliferation, so long as the data is immediate, useable, consumable via apps, and easy to modify. With Anaplan, business users can build a model with 500 million cells, use it for one hour for a specific purpose, and then throw it away and start on a new one if they want! Ease of use is key. This is the future of enterprise big data.”
