DEVELOP A HYPOTHESIS

Companies looking to explore Big Data often seek first to adopt new, external data sets.   While these new, unstructured data sources - social, mobile, search, logs and internet of things - certainly can be valuable, there is frequently latent opportunity for companies to more effectively use the data already present in their organization.  We believe in an integrative approach to Big Data, leveraging existing BI solutions along with Big Data to start generating hypotheses, ideas and experiments.   Our consultants at Insight act as a bridge between the Business and IT departments to help you uncover and exploit strategic opportunities concealed in your data that is yet to be discovered through normal analytical methods.

INTEGRATE BIG DATA

Despite speculation, the traditional data warehouse is not dead.  However, to manage all of this data our specialists use new tools and technologies across the the Hadoop ecosystem.   The concept of the Logical Data Warehouse is emerging which unifies data from all sources across traditional data warehouses and data lakes sourced by big data.  These new technologies and techniques must be combined with a re-doubled effort in Self-Service BI to ensure the organization empowers a data exploration culture, even despite the business questions themselves not yet being defined.
