Data Proliferation● Data Growth is the Largest Data Center

Infrastructure Challenge● System performance and scalability is the

second-biggest data center infrastructure challenge

(Gartner November 1, 2010)

OW2 Annual Conference 2010, November 24-25, La Cantine, Paris. www.ow2.org.

Problems to solve● Scalability● Ability to acquire data from very different data

sources● Ability to process and transform this data● Ability to effectively analyze this data● Ability to extract knowledge

OW2 Annual Conference 2010, November 24-25, La Cantine, Paris. www.ow2.org.

What we need● A proper tool for each problem● High level of configurability and customization● Contain the costs● Have a stack which can be «certified to work»

in some way

Use Open Source Software● Availability of solutions for cloudware, data

management, ETL, BI● Highly customizable by definition● Low cost

● Who can assure that all these components can really work together?

Conclusion

● The way we collect, interact and present data is quickly changing

● BI to focus on data visualization and analysis● Open source ecosystem can provide today all

the tools and technologies to take profit from this data proliferation

● OW2 can help to show how
