    Abstract 
      Over the last several years the ISP/XaaS/Cloud providers have greatly   enhanced data manipulation and processing capabilities to enable users to   crunch more data, more quickly, at more affordable costs. The business   analytics software layer is exploding with innovations to leverage that   increased processing power. From little known start-ups to the mega-stacks,   many new capabilities exist to dynamically acquire, curate, blend, enrich and   act upon data. These technologies enable more complex data mining, pattern   detection, machine learning, predictive modeling, and insight generation –   with a minimal reliance upon IT Operations. The “-- as a Service” model   (XaaS) offered by Cloud platform providers are making it possible to stand-up   complex Big Data Analytics solutions in a matter of days for pennies per   gigabyte or processing-second. Learn how these technologies allow enterprises   to go beyond traditional on-premise BI and analytics offerings into truly   integrated advanced analytics solutions that will ultimately blur the line   between business operations and business analytics.
