The New Frontier: Optimizing Big Data Exploration

The Briefing Room with Dr. Robin Bloor and Cirro Live Webcast on February 11, 2014 Watch the archive: https://bloorgroup.webex.com/bloorgroup/lsr.php?RCID=0ec1fa381886313cc06d841015c65898 As information ecosystems continue to expand, businesses are searching for ways to combine traditional analytics with a new source of insight: Big Data. But with data flooding in from all kinds of sources, fast access and performance at scale can easily become an issue. One effective approach for solving this challenge is data federation, a method that involves taking the analytical processing to the data, allowing streamlined access to multiple data sources without the expensive ETL overhead or building of semantic layers. Register for this episode of The Briefing Room to hear veteran Analyst Dr. Robin Bloor as he explains how the prevalence of distributed data calls for a new approach to Big Data. He will be briefed by Mark Theissen of Cirro, who will tout his company’s Data Hub, a data federation solution that provides a single point of access to all enterprise data assets without excessive data movements, preprocessing or staging. He will discuss how data federation differs from virtualization and ETL approaches, and demonstrate how a Cirro deployment solves the analytics challenge of integrating data silos across the data center – and the cloud – using the BI tools you already have on your desktop for real-time distributed analytics.
