From Strata + Hadoop World 2015 in Singapore: Big data and analytics continues to be a disruptive business force. Are we entering another phase – real-time digital business transformation, where businesses are realizing that the time to adjust to market and customer opportunities and threats is shrinking quickly? Leveraging historical and streaming data with “just-in-time” analytics at the time of business decisions is on the horizon – and in the future machine learning will play an important role in automating many business actions and processes. All this is spurring huge innovation strides across the industry and open source communities.

Rod will focus on what businesses are looking for in the next few years and which technologies on the horizon will meet the challenge.
