Big data. Everyone is running a big data pilot, from Oracle to Microsoft to IBM shops. But what does “big data” really mean? As new options to store, query and access your information become available at a fast pace, it is essential to understand the enterprise data landscape and what it means to you.
Understanding Today’s Data Landscape
In this upcoming webinar you’re invited to participate in a conversation with our guest presenter, Mark Rittman, CTO of Rittman Mead, as he shares his own experiences when working with companies.
