It is no secret that big data is the hot topic in every business and technology oriented publication around the world. However, many businesses remain in the dark with their unanswered questions regarding the ideal information management solutions or infrastructure components to free big data from information silos. All Things D reports on information management as it pertains to our current era of big data in the article, “A New Storage Paradigm for Big Data.”

As a result of this “free” data capture, increasing information granularity, more frequent usage and extended data value, businesses, research institutions and governments are growing enormous stores of large unstructured data (increasingly video) that needs to be stored and managed. This result presents a number of challenging data storage problems: extreme scalability; affordability (in general); managing the balance between cost and easy online access; maximizing application and user access; and assuring data durability.
Solutions from big data vendors such as PolySpot serve as an ideal technology component for an enterprise that needs to enable real-time access to data for analysts to make important decisions. One highlight of this solution lies in the numerous connectors provided; we are talking about a library of over 100 connectors.
