According to Gartner only 50% of clever AI models ever get deployed, put into practise and used to make decisions.
How important is the customer experience in communications today? “Very important” is an understatement. It should be the top area of focus for all communications providers.

Like hiking without GPS directions, Jim Harris says businesses that don't use streaming data analytics will be lost in a crowd of competitors.
Die am 25. Mai 2018 zur Anwendung kommende Datenschutz-Grundverordnung (DSGVO), oder auch GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation genannt), ist in der letzten Zeit in aller Munde gewesen. Besonders deren Auswirkungen auf einzelne Branchen oder auf spezielle Unternehmensbereiche wie Marketing und Vertrieb wurden vielfältig diskutiert. Parallel haben Softwarehersteller und Beratungsunternehmen erste
Jim Harris says streaming data analytics can drive better decisions and faster adaptation to changing conditions.
Edge Analytics ist zweifellos eines der „Next Big Things“. Noch vor ein, zwei Jahren nicht mehr als ein ambitioniertes Konzept, sind jetzt die Voraussetzungen für ganz reale Anwendungen da. Wie so etwas aussehen kann, will ich anhand eines scheinbar spielerischen, aber tatsächlich einsatzbereiten Beispiels zeigen: dem analytischen Truck. In diesem
Jim Harris discusses how the lines between data management and analytics are fading.
David Loshin extends his exploration of ethical issues surrounding automated systems and event stream processing to encompass data quality and risk considerations.
Streaming technologies have been around for years, but as Felix Liao recently blogged, the numbers and types of use cases that can take advantage of these technologies have now increased exponentially. I've blogged about why streaming is the most effective way to handle the volume, variety and velocity of big data. That's
Hadoop may have been the buzzword for the last few years, but streaming seems to be what everyone is talking about these days. Hadoop deals primarily with big data in stationary and batch-based analytics. But modern streaming technologies are aimed at the opposite spectrum, dealing with data in motion and
Ever wondered about the relationship between radio-frequency identification (RFID) and the Internet of Things (IoT)? Radio-Frequency Identification is one of the many types of sensors that are bringing the IoT to life. They’re fully compatible with the Internet of Things at the most basic level. RFID technology provides a way of locating a
Do you have a need for real-time, streaming analytics? What technology are you considering? How are you going to enable rapid development and deployment of your analytical models all in real-time? SAS has partnered the the Hortonworks HDF team to develop a nifi processor that allows SAS machine learning models and
The expletive leapt from the lips of the orthopedic surgeon as he entered my hospital room. He was swathed in a green gown, purple gloves, and a white surgical mask – for his protection, not mine. He was clearly upset. “What, exactly, does $#@! mean?” I asked. “It means you’re
Jim Harris says event stream processing determines if big data is eventful and relevant enough to process and store.
The Internet has been around a long time. "Things" have been around even longer. Put the things on the Internet, aka the Internet of Things (IoT), and you get so much hype that IoT is at the top of Gartner's "Peak of Inflated Expectations" – and poised for a fall into the "Trough of
Event stream processing (ESP) and real-time processing (RTP) so often come up in the same conversation that it begs the question if they are one and the same. The short answer is yes and/or no. But since I don’t need the other kind of ESP to know that you won’t
What sends a data management product to the top of the “hot” list? In a word – speed. Especially when that speed can gracefully accommodate the huge world of streaming data from the Internet of Things. One of SAS’ hottest (and recently enhanced) products, SAS Event Stream Processing is an
Do you hear voices? I sure hope so. I’m not talking about the ones associated with psychiatric disorders or medical conditions, but the voices of quality. To compare the two for a just a moment, the medical description from HealthGrades explains that auditory hallucinations can be pleasant or threatening and
