1.  IDEAS  

In  the  beginning  there  is  an  idea:    

•  Collect  new  data  •  Combine  internal  and  external  data  •  Explore  data  •  Analyze  data  in  new  ways  

But  how  to  bring  the  ideas  to  life?

2.  PROTOTYPE  

A  prototyping  environment  is  needed    

•  Fast  and  easy  deployment  •  Various  technologies  •  Integra0on  with  internal  structures  •  Compa0ble  with  tools  of  choice  

  Lets’s  see  some  examples  of  what  IBM  has  to  offer  

Cloud-­‐Based  Systems  of  Engagement  (NoSQL,  Mobile  Apps,  Internet  of  Things,  Social  Media)  

CLOUDANT  

IBM’s  NoSQL  store      

•  is  deployed  in  minutes  on  cloud  •  easily  integrates  with  applica0ons  and  

data  sources  in  the  Bluemix  context  •  includes  analy0c  capabilites  (e.g.  

geospacial)  •  is  flexible  in  scaling  and  replica0on  

DASHDB  

IBM’s  in-­‐memory  analy0cs  database      

•  is  deployed  in  minutes  on  cloud  •  easily  integrates  with  applica0ons    

and  data  sources  in  the  Bluemix  context,  cloud  providers  (e.g.  Amazon)  and  internal  IT  

•  has  a  rich  SQL  interface  and  in-­‐database  analy0cs  capabili0es  (e.g.  sta0s0cs,  geospa0al)  

•  comes  with  R  environment  included

Schema  Discovery  Process  

IBM  &  Third  Party  Integra+ons  (Cognos,  SPSS,  SAS,  Tableau,  ESRI  ArcGIS,  R)  

•  is  an  analy0cs  warehouse  extension  of  Cloudant  

Cloud-­‐Based  Hadoop  environment  (Spark,  SQL,  R,  Text  Analy0cs,  Machine  Learning)  

BIGINSIGHTS  

IBM’s  Hadoop  distribu0on      

•  is  deployed  in  minutes  with  virtualized  HW  on  cloud    

•  is  deployed  in  days  with  bare  metal  HW  for  high  performance  on  cloud    

•  easily  integrates  with  applica0ons  and  data  sources  in  the  Bluemix  context  

•  is  100%  open  source  with  IBM  added  value  extensions  

•  is  flexible  in  scaling  SQL  

WATSON  ANALYTICS  

IBM’s  Self-­‐service  analy0cs  for  business  users  and  experts      

•  is  deployed  in  minutes  on  cloud  •  automa0cally  analyzes  your  data  and    

provides  ques0ons  for  you  to  explore    •  provides  automated  data  

visualiza0ons  •  iden0fies  predictors  of  your  target  

analysis  •  allows  to  pin  your  results  for  use  in  

dashboards  and  storytelling  

Fully Automated Intelligence

Natural Language Dialogue

Guided Analytic Discovery

Single Analytics Experience

DATAWORKS  

IBM’s  Data  Refinery  Service  that      

•  is  deployed  in  minutes  on  cloud  •  is  a  collec0on  of  cloud-­‐based  data  

access  and  refinement  services  •  integrates  with  data  services  on  

Bluemix  and  on-­‐premise  •  offers  data  load,  data  profiling,  

probabilis0c  match  

Systems  of  Record  &  Insight  Integra0on  (Watson  Analy0cs,  DB2,  Oracle,  Hadoop,    

dashDB,  flat  files)  

3.  FAIL  FAST  

If  the  idea  is  not  working  or  gives  no  valuable  insights    

•  Don’t  spend  0me  on  it  any  more  •  Throw  your  prototyping    

environment  away    •  Move  on  to  the  next  idea  

•  All  the  IBM  offerings  described  are  cloud-­‐based,  have  entry  versions  free  of  charge  and  are  paid  on  a  monthly  basis  

•  If  you  don’t  need  them  any  more,  just  stop  the  subscrip0on  

 

4.  PRODUCTION  

•  If  the  ideas  are  proved  to  give  insights  or  benefits,  bring  them  to  produc0on  

•  But  don’t  invent  the  wheel  again  •  Adapt  the  procedures  implemented  in  

the  prototyping  phase  directly  to  produc0on    

•  The  IBM  offerings  are  not  just  small  prototyping  environments    

•  They  have  produc0on  ready  variants  or  could  be  deployed  on-­‐premise

4.  PRODUCTION  

•  IBM  can  support  you  to  bring  your  innova0ons  to  life  

•  Prototype  ideas,  fail  fast,  bring  successful  idea  into  produc0on  –  in  the  cloud  on-­‐premise  or  hybrid  

•  Innova0ons  born  in  the  cloud  and  matured  where  it  fits  best  to  your  business
