Big Data exploitation has the potential to revolutionise the analytic value proposition for organisations that are able to successfully harness these capabilities. However, the architectural components necessary for success in Big Data analytics are different than those used in traditional data warehousing. This workshop will provide a framework for Big Data exploitation along with recommendations for architectural deployment of Big Data solutions.

We will discuss tools and frameworks such as MapReduce, Hadoop, SQL++, Sqoop, etc. along with approaches to successfully deploy advanced technologies in this arena. The importance of the NoSQL and NoETL paradigms will be described along with the implementation techniques for realising the advantages of these capabilities. We will explain which use cases are appropriate for which components of a Big Data ecosystem and how to architect inter-operability among the various technology platforms used in a best practices implementation. Our approach emphasises the ability to quickly take advantage of emerging Big Data technologies with maximum leverage of existing sill sets and assets within an enterprise.
