TDWI has released its newest issue of its What Works publication, What Works in Big Data. The collection of articles, customer success stories, and lessons learned helps enterprises get the most from big data technology.
What Works’ feature article by TDWI Research analysts David Stodder, Philip Russom, and Fern Halper provides recommendations, tips, and best practices so enterprises can attain value from their big data investment. The authors provide tips for modifying your data warehouse to accommodate new (and old) data requirements; making analytics work in your big data effort; and helping big data and BI work well together. They explain the importance of establishing a balanced approach for self-service BI and analytics and why enterprises should exploit advances in data visualization to improve their understanding of big data.
Case studies in What Works present snapshots of the most innovative BI and DW implementations in the industry today. The case studies included in this volume demonstrate the power of big data technologies and solutions for industries ranging from online marketplaces to semiconductor manufacturers.
Several “Lessons from the Experts” articles are written by leading experts in the services, software, and hardware vendor communities. These lessons provide perspectives about big data best practices and trends.
What Works also includes excerpts from TDWI’s recent Best Practices Reports: Evolving Data Warehouse Architectures in the Age of Big Data by Philip Russom, Predictive Analytics for Business Advantage by Fern Halper, and Managing Big Data, also by Philip Russom.
