Following a massive explosion in the world of data has made the slow paced statisticians into the most in-demand people in the job market right now. But why are all companies whether big or small out for data analysts and scientists?

Companies are collecting data from all possible sources, through PCs, smart phones, RFID sensors, gaming devices and even automotive sensors. However, just the volume of data is not the main factor that needs to be tackled efficiently, because that is not the only factor that is changing the business environment, but there is the velocity as well as variety of data as well which is increasing at light speed and must be managed with efficacy.

Why data is the new frontier to boost your sales figures?

Earlier the sales personnel were the only people from whom the customers gathered data about the products but today there are various sources from where customers can gather data so people are no longer that heavily reliant on the availability of data.

Things To Be Aware Of Regarding Hadoop Clusters

Posted on by Dexlab

Hadoop is being increasingly used by companies of diverse scope and size and they are realizing that running Hadoop optimally is a tough call. As a matter of fact it is not humanly possible to respond to the changing conditions in real time as these may take place across several nodes in order to fix dips in performance or those that are causing bottlenecks. This performance degradation is exactly what needsto be critically remedied in cases where Hadoop is deployed on large scales where Hadoop is expected to deliver results critical to your business in the proper time. The following three signs signal the health of your Hadoop cluster.

  • The Out of Capacity Problem

The true test of your Hadoop infrastructure comes to fore when you are able to efficiently run all of your jobs and complete them within adequate time. In this it is not rare to come across instances where you have seemingly run out of capacity as you are unable to run additional application. However monitoring tools indicate that are not making full use of processing capability or other resources. The primary challenge that now lies before you is to sort out the root cause of the problem you have. Most often you will find them to be related to the YARN architecture that is used by Hadoop.YARN is static in nature and after the scheduling of jobs the process of adjusting system and network resources. The solution lies in configuring YARN to deal with worst case scenarios.

Predictions For Big Data In 2016

Posted on by Dexlab

Fresh on the heels of the advent of the new year, Big Data enthusiasts might wonder what the coming year beholds like machine learning updates, data as a service that works in real time, Markets of algorithms, Spark and much, much more.

Predictions-for-Big-Data-in-2016

 

  • The Emergence of the Chief Data Officer

The sweeping changes in recent times has made aware that enterprises realize that they are in real need of a working strategy in order to compete with competitors who are digital-native.This strategy is ideally formed by a Chief Data Officer.

  •  Empowering Business Users

Due to a lack of proper talent in the Big Data industry more tools will emerge that reveal information to the users directly. Salesforce and Microsoft are both letting non-coders create apps that are intended to make visualizations of business data.

  •  Intelligence Embedding

In recent times it is often seen that organizations embed analytic function pieces directly in the required apps. In fact, according to the predictions by the IDC by 2020, it is projected that all software related to business analytics will include prescriptive analytics which will be based on cognitive computing functionality.

  •  An End to Talent Shortage

There is an acute shortage of data scientists. As reported recently by A.T. Kearney, the business consultancy no less than 72 % of global companies that are the leaders in their respective markets, find it hard to recruit quality talent in data science. But recent predictions by the International Institute for Analytics run contrary. According to it that scarcity of quality talent in the field may be reduced in 2016 as companies put into use new tactics.

  • Machine Learning Comes of Age

Machine learning basically revolves around the creation of algorithms that lets computers sort of learn from experience. It is attracting more than its fair bit of attention in organizations that seek to automate processed that otherwise require the intervention of humans.

  •  The Rise of the Data-As-A- Service Model of Business

The recent acquisition of the Weather Company by IBM shows signs on what is looming over the horizon. In all likelihood companies will adopt the business model of services that consist of data streams and package and sell the data acquired by them.

Many experts believe that one can learn any new subject by simple self-study if only you invest enough time and sincere predisposition towards a topic. After all self-study is actually what a person does to acquire knowledge about any given topic. Be it how to fix a leaky faucet or learn a new language or learn strum a guitar. Studying is on one’s own in any case. But to be an expert in a given field, you have to study on your own while you also need to invest your energy in the right direction. And to know the right direction, you need a mentor or a guide to lead the way.

But if you want to test the waters, and tinker with Hadoop to understand its basics, you can go through the wide range of documents available at the Apache Hadoop website for your perusal. Also try downloading the Hadoop open source release to get the feel of the program while tinkering with different features.
