Useful Suggestion For The Magic Bullet Hadoop
August 13, 2013
Downloading Hadoop and expecting it to solve all your problems is dumb way to use the software. Silicon Angle has some suggestions on how to use Hadoop in, “To Succeed With Hadoop: Find Specific Problem Areas And Solve Them.” The advice comes from Datameer CEO/Founder Stefan Groschupf at the recent Hadoop Summit 2013.
Groschupf acknowledged that Hadoop is another tool in the big data toolbox and the real power of a company does not come from just its tools, build its customer base, quality products with an edge that no one else has, and to stay in the black. Most importantly is to find a problem no one else has resolved and do it yourself.
That seems to be the only advice the article offers. The rest is an advertisement for Datameer 3.0, which is the newest tool for big data analytics:
“Datameer 3.0 adds new Smart Analytic functions. With a single click, it automatically identifies patterns, relationships, and recommendations based on data stored in Hadoop. For the first time, four advanced machine learning techniques become self-service and accessible for data-driven business users: Clustering, Decision Trees, Column Dependencies and Recommendations. Until now, these advanced analytics required highly specialized data scientists to build custom functionality, which was a costly and time-consuming process.”
So get a gimmick kids! Once you have that you will succeed. It worked for Bill Gates, Walt Disney, Steve Jobs, and Lady Gaga.
