IBM Makes Big Data Manageable in the Workplace
Managing and analyzing big data is now made possible in the workplace with IBM’s new software, which allows employees to gain actionable insight on-the-go and in real-time.
Offerings span big data and analytics technologies across multiple platforms from mobile devices to data centers to IBM’s SmartCloud. The software has been designed to help employees in industries including financial services, healthcare, government, communications, retail and travel use.
According to IBM, people create the equivalent of 2.5 quintillion bytes of data from sensors, mobile devices, online transactions, and social networks. To address the challenges of big data, IBM is offing new analytics and information management offerings, and skills resources including:
- New Hadoop-based analytics software on the cloud, IBM InfoSphere BigInsights, that can be up and running in less than 30 minutes, helping employees tap into massive amounts of unstructured data from sources including social networks, mobile devices and sensors.
- New mobile analytics software for iPad users that makes it easy to explore any type of data on the go with location-aware analytics.
- New predictive analytics software, the SPSS Statistics 20.0 software, with a mapping feature that can be used across industries for marketing campaigns, retail store allocation, crime prevention, and academic assessment.
- New software that sifts through all types of data behind the scenes and ranks its quality, makes it secure, and ensures business decisions are based on trusted data.
