Technology breakfasts: The drive towards digital transformation with big data.
On 12 February, at the Federation of Companies of La Rioja, we organised a technological breakfast, where we tried to shed some light on the hackneyed term 'Big Data': trying to define it; explaining why it has emerged, precisely, in recent years.
This talk, which lasted approximately one and a half hours, was given by Iván Gómez, a consultant in Big Data at Bosonit. It was designed for all audiences who wanted to know what Big Data is, in which cases it is applied and the success of some companies in its implementation.
The following issues were addressed:
- What is Big Data? What is it for?
- Why is it emerging now? (Chronology and technological factors)
- Where is it integrated and/or how does it differ from other current technologies?
- Use cases and success stories.
What is Big Data in technology pill format?
This first meeting opened a series of technology breakfasts, where opportunities and best practices in digital transformation are discussed. Important issues will be addressed, such as data analysis and visualisation with Business Intelligence(12 March), or the advanced analytics with machine learning or 'artificial intelligence', as a source of business opportunity (12 April).
This initiative, in which Bosonit participates, is promoted by the Federation of Companies of La Rioja (FER), in collaboration with the Economic Development Agency (ADER) and the Government of La Rioja.
