Big Data Storage and Data Virtualization

April 1, 2019

The big data concept has been adopted by all kinds of organizations. Data can be "big" because of its enormous volume, because it's not structured in the traditional way, or because it's streaming in with enormous quantities. The business advantages of big data systems are clear, they can improve, deepen, and strengthen an organization's analytical capabilities with relatively attractive infrastructure economics.Until now the data virtualization servers have focused on making big data processing easy. They can hide the complex and technical interfaces of big data storage technologies, such as Hadoop and NoSQL, and they can present big data as if it's stored in traditional SQL systems. This allows developers to use their existing skills and to deploy their traditional ETL, reporting, and analytical tools that all support SQL. Additionally, the products and existing skills can extend the data security mechanisms for accessing and processing big data across multiple big data systems. Butcwith scale and performance rising, making big data processing easy is not enough anymore. As such, the next challenge for data virtualization is parallel big data processing.

The Definitive Guide to Test Data Management

whitePaper | November 10, 2022

In this hyper-competitive era, faster time-to-market plays a vital role in the success of an organization. Any lag accounts for the 'Cost of delay,' impacting the value a product could create otherwise. This is the primary reason teams are adopting an agile approach to software development, testing, and release. Unfortunately, teams that don't follow suit find it challenging to deal with this accelerated timeframe.

HPE Data Management Framework

Artificial Intelligence and National Security

whitePaper | November 26, 2019

Artificial intelligence (AI) is a rapidly growing field of technology with potentially significant implications for national security. As such, the U.S. Department of Defense (DOD) and other nations are developing AI applications for a range of military functions. AI research is underway in the fields of intelligence collection and analysis, logistics, cyber operations, information operations, command and control, and in a variety of semiautonomous and autonomous vehicles. Already, AI has been incorporated into military operations in Iraq and Syria. Congressional action has the potential to shape the technology’s development further, with budgetary and legislative decisions influencing the growth of military applications as well as the pace of their adoption.
