Over the last year it has become general knowledge that Big Data and Analytics are as important to business and society as the invention of the Internet. We are seeing more companies and individuals leverage the insight opportunity from many data sources such as sensors, social media feeds and near real time video stream feeds. Quite simply: the ability to take and view data from any location at any time and gain insight via an analytical process is upon us!
A really cool fact that is great to quote and watch is that the world generates 1 petabyte of data every 11 seconds but only 0.5% of that data is prepared for analysis. If you can embark down the Big Data solution path, you can harness the potential of data generation sensors, intelligent systems and help transition society to adopt new business models.
At Intel, we believe the transformative potential of Big Data can only be unleashed if every individual and organization has access to powerful analytic capabilities. Intel has developed a comprehensive approach to Big Data that builds on our history of innovation in high performance computing clusters, cloud computing and open source software.
For example, the Intel distribution of Apache Hadoop is an open platform designed to support the widest range of Big Data use cases and enable partner innovation in analytics. IDH is the first distribution to deliver hardware-assisted security and performance.
With our key partner Microsoft, we are working closely to optimize solutions that take full advantage of the latest computer, storage and IO technologies to make your chosen Big Data approach efficient, robust and valuable. You can learn more at the Intel Booth (#901) at this year’s Microsoft TechEd 2013 and at links below.
