#1 – MOBILE APPS

• Mobile devices overtaking PCs as the most common web access device worldwide by end of 2013

• More market shift towards complex business applications instead of small niche consumer apps• Similar to PC evolution of desktop productivity

apps to network enabled enterprise solutions

• Apple iOS and Google Android will continue to dominate market share for next 2 years

• Native Apps will continue to be preferred development platform, however, HTML5/Hybrid will start gaining ground

MOBILE APPS STATS

Mobile App Market Stats:

• The number of smartphones will exceed 1.82 billion units worldwide in 2013

• Android is expected to claim 63.8% market share by 2016

• iOS monthly revenues are 4x those of Google Play

• Apple has paid developers $5 billion in app sales

• There are now more than 400 million accounts with registered credit cards in the App Store

• Google Play Has 700,000 Apps, Tying Apple’s App Store

#2 - BIG DATA

• Automatically generated by a machine (e.g. Sensor embedded in an engine)

• Typically an entirely new source of data(e.g. Use of the internet)

• Not designed to be friendly(e.g. Text streams)

• May not have much valuesNeed to focus on the important part

Page 9: Technology Trends in 2013-2014

BIG DATA - NOSQL

• Next Generation Databases mostly addressing some of the points: being non-relational, distributed, open-source and horizontal scalable.

• Key factor over SQL databases is its ability to store and retrieve data across multiple commodity server nodes in parallel

• The original intention has been modern web-scale databases.

• The mass movement began early 2009 and is growing rapidly. However, core technology dates back to 1990’s.

BIG DATA TECHNOLOGIES

• MapReduce – Technique for indexing and searching large data volumes• Google Invention, Hadoop

• Column Store – Each storage block contains data from only one column• HBase, Cassandra

• Document Store – Stores documents made up of tagged elements• MongoDB, CouchDB

• Key-Value Store – Hash table of keys• Berkley-DB, Voldemort

Page 11: Technology Trends in 2013-2014

BIG DATA STATS

• Google processes 100 PB/day; 3 million servers

• Facebook has 300 PB + 500 TB/day; 35% of world’s photos

• YouTube 1000 PB video storage; 4 billion views/day

• Twitter processes124 billion tweets/year

• SMS messages – 6.1T per year

• US Cell Calls – 2.2T minutes per year

#3 - CLOUD COMPUTING

• Shift from “Should we use” to “how can we use cloud” within corporate IT

• Personal Cloud to replace PCs for personal content storage allowing access across multiple devices

• Cloud-based disaster-recovery as-a-service

• De-duplicating and Encryption of data before it is sent to a cloud storage service will be an integral component

Page 13: Technology Trends in 2013-2014

13

CLOUD COMPUTING

• Start addressing the real drawbacks of cloud computing - the challenges of scale, complexity and change management - rather than fixating on its supposed drawbacks such as security, compliance and SLAs

• SaaS applications will continue to be developed using Cloud Computing (private or public)

Page 14: Technology Trends in 2013-2014

#4 - IN-MEMORY COMPUTING

“Enabling users to develop applications that run advanced queries or perform complex transactions, on very large datasets, at least one order of magnitude faster — and in a more scalable way — than when using conventional architectures”

- Gartner definition

Examples:• Fraud Detection• Price Optimization• Demand Forecast• Flight Control – Fueling, Maintenance, &

Scheduling• Simulation (What-If Analysis)

Page 15: Technology Trends in 2013-2014

IN-MEMORY COMPUTING

Why Now?

• 64-bit processors allowing access to 16 exabytes of memory (32-bit limited it to 4GB)

• Memory chips getting faster, more capacity, and cheaper due to Moore’s law

• New off-the-shelf commodity servers are capable of 1TB RAM capacity – big enough for many large databases to remain in memory

• In-Memory RDBMS from Oracle, Microsoft, and others allowing traditional SQL based applications to benefit immediately by placing data in memory

• New development tools making it easier for developers to build applications running across multiple blade servers• e.g. 1000 servers – 4 cores per server with 512 GB RAM

Page 16: Technology Trends in 2013-2014

IN-MEMORY COMPUTING

• In-Memory Computing can squeeze batch processes normally lasting hours into minutes or seconds.

• These processes are provided in the form of real-time or near real-time services and delivered to users in the form of cloud services.

• Numerous vendors will deliver in-memory solutions over the next two years, driving this approach into mainstream use.

#5 - ACTIONABLE ANALYTICS

• To make analytics more actionable and pervasively deployed, BI and analytics professionals must make analytics more invisible and transparent to their users

• Embedded analytic applications at the point of decision or action

• Real-time operational intelligence systems that make supervisors and operations staff more effective

• Provides simulation, prediction, optimization and other analytics, to empower even more decision flexibility at the time and place of every business process action

• Enabled by Big Data and In-Memory Computing technologies

Page 18: Technology Trends in 2013-2014

ACTIONABLE ANALYTICS

Tools:

• Google Analytics• Teradata• Greenplum• Woopra• Juice Analytics• Jaspersoft• KISSmetrics

Examples:

• Improving Quality of Healthcare• Leveraging CRM data at the point of sell

(Amazon)• Gaining Operational Efficiency • Field Service Order Processing

#6 – SOCIAL MEDIA

• Social Media trend continues to grow and more business applications will leverage social media through integrations

• The three most trusted forms of advertising are:  Recommendations from people I know - 90% Consumer opinions posted online - 70% Branded websites - 70%

• Mobile in the middle and primary device for use of social media

• Google+ Is a Must - Google+ integration now extends to many Google properties, such as YouTube, Gmail, Blogger, and Search
