Over the last decade enterprises have invested heavily in IT systems to support their growing business needs. However, this has increased the complexity of system integration and forced companies to invest more heavily in ongoing maintenance. Annually 65 –70% of...<img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/bigdatamatters/xnlm/~4/RSpjyY0NZGk" height="1" width="1"/>

In my last post, I outlined considerations that need to be taken into account when choosing between a centralized and federated security model. So, how do we implement the chosen model? Based on a real-world case study, I will outline...<img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/bigdatamatters/xnlm/~4/Hds3Al8uRnM" height="1" width="1"/>

Enterprises want to protect their data. As the appetite for data volumes grows, storage technology becomes a critical business asset on which business continuity relies. My recent survey in the medium-size enterprise segment shows the five dominant investment directions at...<img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/bigdatamatters/xnlm/~4/8pexEIe4XKc" height="1" width="1"/>

What's the cost of downtime to your business? $100,000 per hour, $1,000,000 or more? The recent volcanic ash that has grounded European flights is estimated to be costing the airlines $200M a day.

Why migrate your database? Efficiency and availability problems are harming your business - reports are out of date, your batch processing window is nearing its limits, outages (unplanned/planned) frequently halt work. Database consolidation removes the costs that result from a...<img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/bigdatamatters/xnlm/~4/l_sTFLyfMPc" height="1" width="1"/>

BigDataMatters is focused on the issues faced when processing and managing large amounts of data. In light of this, it would be a crime not to blog about the security of this data.

The case for in-memory databases (IMDB) can be made in three simple points (1) performance - data is kept in RAM so no disk I/O limitations (2) HA with built in fail-over (3) support for relational schema and SQL.

Companies earnings outstrip forecasts, consumer confidence is retuning and city bonuses are back. What does this mean for business? Growth! After the recent years of cost cutting in IT budgets, there is the sudden fear induced from increased demand.
