RECENT BIG DATA QUOTE:
"The days of complete visibility into big data are numbered. There is simply too much of it. While we may see companies promoting fancy strategies for managing “fire hose data”, only the ones focused on analytics will get close to making meaning from the massive deluge. As a result, more companies will plug into new advancements in relational and non-relational programming frameworks that support the processing of large data sets. "
