Hub-and-spoke patterns have long been the
preferred architecture for data and application integration
technologies because hubs provide an easily understood design,
reduce the number of interfaces required, foster reuse, and control
data centrally for the purposes of optimization, data standards, and
governance. However, there's a new generation of data integration
hub coming that even nontechnical users can employ to publish data,
so that other users can easily subscribe to that data and bring it
into their applications with minimal involvement from IT. |

As the velocity of business increases,
business users are less willing to wait for the IT department to
create custom reports and analytics. Many users now expect to be
able to interact with information and create their own views of data
to address pressing business issues. At the same time, BI teams
would like to off-load report and analytics creation duties to users
and focus on more value-added activities.

The term "big data" has arisen in recent
years to describe multi-terabyte data sets. Big data certainly has
its challenges relative to scalability and data management, but it's
also useful for business intelligence. In particular, the massive
data sets of big data provide substantial data samples for various
forms of analytics, especially advanced forms that are discovery
oriented.
