methods have to ensure that project schedules allow for enough

requirements into their applications. Only then will the faster pace
of development create a faster path to information advantage.

conference, vendors scrambled to stake their claims in a big data
market -- centered around Hadoop -- that most analysts believe is
still riding a rising tide of hype. This ensured a frantic -- and

server or a database management system. |

Conventional wisdom suggests that a
centralized function for managing access to data provides economies
of scale while providing trustworthy oversight of the quality and
usability of that data. Business must be agile; increased business
control of information enables greater freedom in analysis. The
increasing need of business users for speed and agility also
requires a higher degree of speed and agility in IT that can be
achieved by automating trivial tasks.
