John Schroeder sees data agility, processing data platforms, self-service, market consolidation and the rise of the enterprise architect as major developments
Hadoop continues to show significant evidence of how companies are achieving measurable ROI from storing, processing, analyzing and sharing Big Data. MapR Technologies' CEO and Cofounder, John Schroeder, forecasts several major developments he believes will drive Big Data in 2015 to become a must-have infrastructure for enterprises. These include:
"This is the year that organizations move Big Data deployments beyond initial batch implementations and into real time," said Schroeder. "This will be driven by the huge strides that existing industry leaders and soon-to-be new leaders have already made by incorporating new Big Data platforms into their operations and integrating analytics with "in-flight" data to impact business as it happens."
