Is Analytics the "Killer App" for Big Data?

About the Event

Big Data hyping has been going on in the industry over the past couple of years among vendors, consultants and the media, prompting skeptics to ask, "when will it show me the money?" and "what's the next 'killer application' of Big Data?" While analytical techniques and statistical modelling have been used by businesses for quite some time, the democratization of data due to the phenomena of Big Data has allowed applications of analytics to take a leap forward in the enterprise. The industry has transformed from Descriptive Analytics to Predictive Analytics and is now moving towards Cognitive Analytics. In this interactive session, we will engage with industry experts across different vertical segments. They will share how they are leveraging analytics today and what innovations they are planning in the Big Data Analytics space in the future!
