John Choi, IBM Director of Product Management for Big Data
Big data is a big deal and everyone is talking about it. But do you really understand what big data is? And more importantly, do you know what you can do with it and how you can benefit from it? Companies today are no longer able to survive on traditional historical analysis, internal silos of data, reactive responses and retroactive planning. They need to harness all of the data available to them to maximize value and sustain a competitive advantage. In a recent global survey, over 63% of organizations indicated that the use of information (including big data) and analytics is creating a competitive advantage for their organizations–a 70% increase in the past two years alone. The data you need is there, you just need the right technology to analyze it.
Join us for an informative and engaging discussion with John Choi, IBM Director of Product Management for Big Data. He will share the top use cases for big data and how you can solve similar problems. He will also discuss how your enterprise can reap the benefits of big data, from developing personalized views of your customers to gaining instant awareness of fraud and risk. Plus, he will cover how the latest innovations in the IBM Big Data portfolio, including stream computing and enterprise-grade Hadoop, can help you analyze all available data. Whether you are just getting started or already on your big data journey, this is a webinar you won’t want to miss.
