New Intelligence - Big Data

Nearly 15 petabytes of data are created every day — eight times more than the information in all the libraries in the U.S,

Volume of data in enterprises is doubling approximately every 3 years (Forrester Research)

• Includes structured and unstructured data, excludes rich media

Costs to find, collect & analyze data is decreasing significantly as web innovation proceeds

Content is untapped value for business insights & intelligence

Business Questions• Name names: Who is doing what, who

isn!t doing what

• Overlay voting record with demographic & voting records over time

• Buzz - what are people talking about?

• Visualize content relationships

Knowledge of Interest: • Members of Parliament (MPs)

• Bills, Debates, Voting Districts

Let!s Talk Customer Scenarios - BBC

• NewsTimeline: Chronology (pulse) of headline news?

• TopicCloud: Tag based topic metrix

• IssueAnalytics: Link backs to semantically related news

Knowledge of Interest:• People, places, events

Enrich Trader!s Desktop Enhancement

Timely aggregation & analytics of content originating from public internet sites

Scenario• Gather unstructured data from anywhere between 200 to

2000 data sources - every 15 minutes

• Perform preprocessing (search, transform, index) over each source

• Publish harvested content for distributed content services and downstream Mashups

IBM Emerging Technology Project: M2

What is it?An insight engine for enabling ad-hoc business insights for business users - at web scale

How does it work?Discovery Process1. point M2 to data sources of interests

• unstructured web data, feeds, XML, etc..

2. transform data into a form that can be analyzed• Unstructured data becomes semi-structured data

• Example: name: Rod Smith, employer: IBM, state: GA

• Apply analytics - enriching the data

3. “what if tooling” - browser-based visual front end - spreadsheet metaphor to create worksheets for exploring/visualizing the data

What!s different?• Unlocking insights embedded in unstructured data

• Analyzing data previously unavailable to analyze

M2 -> Demo

Web Content To Gather: • Gathered 1.4m patent docs from USPTO

• 1991-2007 case records from Court of

Appeals United States Federal Circuit

(CAFC)

Business Questions• How much is a target company worth?

• What are the high-value areas of their

portfolio?

• Explored cited patent topics, litigated

patents

Knowledge of Interest: • Patents ranked by citation – e.g how often

was a patent referenced determines value

• Corporate genealogies IP ownership roll-up

• Augment analysis with items affecting IP

value, inventor affiliation, citation rank by

time

Project:Improve IP Portfolio Analysis for Mergers & Acquisitions

“...please collect all US Patent filings… then let’s do…”

What!s Under the Covers: Hadoop

Emergence of map/reduce programming

model for a new class of webApp

Hadoop: provides a framework for large

scale parallel processing map/reduce

apps (Apache projects lead by Yahoo)

• Offers simplicity of “programming” - Looks like a simple single threaded app model for developers

• Handles big data - scalable storage across machine clusters (think read-only file system)

• Deployment: no application knowledge of runtime or OS or cloud necessary

• Today - setting up, coding Hadoop jobs in Java, etc. is the domain of skilled Java engineers

Expanding upon the Hadoop stack

• Visual tooling builds extensively on Pig

M2 Architecture Characteristics:

• Extensible via UDFs

• REST API for customer choice of analytic service/engine

• REST APl for choice of visualization packages

• Export content as feeds, XML, etc..

• ...more to come

Conclusions

Enterprises quickly evolving their thinking

from a Database strategy to a Data Strategy

encompassing unstructured & structured

content

Repeatable business patterns in broad range

of industries emerging

Hadoop has potential to be the platform for

broad range of solutions from web-based

analytics -> business event processing ->

collaboration
