useful for technologically savvy business analysts or data
scientists -- they can begin producing their own analytical
results. |

No individual is a "segment." Big data
and advanced analytics allow companies to treat customers as
individuals and not as broad demographic slices. Smarter marketing
starts conversations and delivers useful services -- to one

According to a 2012 TDWI survey about
Hadoop, only 10 percent of respondents have the Hadoop Distributed
File System (HDFS) in production today, while a whopping 63 percent
expect to deploy HDFS within three years. The survey reveals that
user organizations are aggressively adopting HDFS and other Hadoop
technologies for data warehousing, analytics, and other purposes.
Organizations in this situation are completely new to this
technology, so they need to educate themselves quickly about the
best practices that are now emerging for Hadoop, especially in the
context of data warehousing and analytics.
