Turning Predictions into Opportunities – O’Reilly Radar Big data is being democratised, but there’s a lot of unmet need in businesses around data warehousing. The typical solution is to build a data warehouse team around a product like Oracle, but I’ve heard plenty of business people grizzling about the result. They want answers, they don’t want the headaches and lag that a data warehouse involve. Big Data (or Cloud Analytics or whatever) may be the opportunity to figure out a new minimum viable product for these folks, and offer it without the "data warehouse" baggage. This might be back end, might be UIs, might be visualisation, but all of these have a lot of room for improvement. (categories: trendsdataminingdataanalyticshadoopmapreduce )
