With data growing more complex these days, many organizations are looking for ways to make sense of new information sources. The goal? Sprint ahead of the competition by exploiting fast-moving opportunities. The challenge? The data volumes, variety and velocity call for significantly greater horsepower than ever before. That’s where machine learning comes into play, and it’s already fundamentally changing the Big Data Analytics landscape.
Register for this episode of The Briefing Room to learn from veteran Analyst Dr. Robin Bloor as he explains how advanced analytics technology can transform the enterprise. He’ll be briefed by Martin Hack, CEO of Skytree, who will tout his company’s machine learning solution for big data. Hack will discuss the critical challenges facing today’s data professionals, and present use cases to show how machine learning can help organizations leverage big data as a capital asset. He’ll specifically address the power of predictive analytics, which can help companies seize opportunities and prevent serious problems.

Perceptions & Questions
Analyst: Robin Bloor
Machine Learning!?
Robin Bloor, Ph.D.
There MAY be some Big Data applications that are not about
data analytics.
Big Data and Analytics
If so, nobody is talking about them…
The Driving Force: Insight
Insight comes from
DATA EXPLORATION
Foresight
Oversight Hindsight
INSIGHT
The Latency Issue
u In data analytics latency is time to value…
u Traditional analytic latencies: • Data access • Data preparation • Model development • Execution • Implementation • Model audit & update
Computer vs. Human
First they beat us at chess.
Then they beat us at Jeopardy.
Now they’re gonna beat us at running
a business!
The Impact of Machine Learning First you need to organize for it
Then you need to architect for it Then you need to test and experiment Then you need to DEPLOY!
The Future of Analytics
There is no question that machine learning will dominate data analytics
The question is: Who will implement it EARLY and
implement it WELL?
u Some people recommend a gradual approach to increasing BI sophistication. They suggest that the next step for most organizations is predictive analytics. What do you think?
u Do you need “Data Scientist” skills to properly exploit machine learning?
u What is the typical design and implementation process?
u Why not just use the open source code that is available?
u What is your performance advantage? Please provide details.
u Are there areas of data analytics where machine learning is not applicable?
u How does this capability integrate with existing BI solutions?
