Live-streaming Presentation: “What Can Big Data Do For My Business”, by Russell Lankenau, MapR Solutions
The traditional view of Big Data typically revolves around web and social data, but the truth is that we’ve been working with big data for years, and doing so at a huge cost. The same technologies t . . .hat enable companies like Facebook and Twitter to process massive volumes of data can be used to reduce the cost of existing ETL processes and get the most out of your existing data warehouse infrastructure. Hadoop in particular provides a large number of application-specific tools that can be applied to a variety of business problems and provide a powerful and cost-effective platform for data analysis.

Live-streaming Presentation-”Creating Citizen Scientists” by Adam Kessel, Forest Preserve District of Cook County
The Forest Preserve District of Cook County’s Citizen Scientists in Action! program is a scientific monitoring program built on a flexible frame that allows for the integration of new and fresh scie . . .ntific opportunities. The program will couple on-the-ground activity with community-based trainings and apprentice-modeled field trips. Students will learn skills needed to conduct field research and will gain insight into important ecological concepts. The data collected through Citizen Scientists in Action! is shared with Michigan State University’s Midwest Invasive Species Information Network (MISIN). MISIN is a regional data aggregation effort to provide an early detection and rapid response (EDRR) resource for invasive species. The goal of this regional resource is to assist both experts and citizen scientists in the detection and identification of invasive species in support of the successful land management.

LIve-streaming presentation-”Demystifying Website Performance Data”, by Larry Adams, VP Product, Narrative Science
Companies are spending hours, days, even weeks of time on reporting from digital marketing and website data. And, as the volume and velocity of this data exponentially increases, accurately interpreti . . .ng it and acting on it will only become more difficult and time-consuming. In order to solve this challenge, Narrative Science has developed a technology platform, called Quill(TM), to automatically transform raw data sets into concise, clear narrative summaries that explain what’s happening in the data and recommendations as to what to do about it. Quill analyzes data generated from any web analytics platform and converts it into customized, actionable reports that quickly answer key business questions and provide perspective into how users interact with your brand online.
In this session, Larry Adams, vice president of product management, will discuss Quill for Google Analytics. This new marketing product equips Google Analytics users with a revolutionary new way to quickly and clearly understand performance insight from their website traffic. Larry will provide an overview of the product, its various reporting methods and delivery options, and how you can participate in our beta program.

Live-streaming event-”Levaraging Data to Create New Products”, by Larry Adams, VP Product, Narrative Science
Please note that this event begins at 1:20 pm, CST
Most companies today are in a position to leverage the data they have amassed to create new revenue opportunities. They must provide real-time access . . . to high-quality information and insight in order to meet customer expectations and differentiate from competitors.
Narrative Science’s ability to transform numbers into expertly written reports enables data providers to launch new information products impossible to develop without automation. We will demonstrate several examples of innovative new products enabled by our Artificial Intelligence platform, Quill.
• For a leading credit analytics firm, Quill produces multi-page, in-depth research reports that combine both text and visualizations, based on our client’s proprietary data and scoring models.
• For Dominion Dealer Solutions, the nation’s largest provider of comprehensive inventory management solutions and automotive data services, we created the Dominion StoryBuilder tool which gives dealers a quick and efficient way to transform vehicle description data into real-time, engaging commentary for online car shoppers. The addition of Dominion StoryBuilder to the Dominion Inventory suite provides dealers with vehicle stories that deepen consumer engagement, drive more leads and optimize online shopper interactions. Ultimately, Quill is saving dealers time and money while its constantly learning and adapting to drive superior online results.

An Introduction to Realtime Computation with Storm
We are happy to host Nathan Marz for a Big Data Week special presentation!
Storm (open-sourced by Twitter in September of 2011) makes it easy to process millions of messages per second with a small cl . . .uster. Nathan will introduce Storm and show how easy it is to use for realtime computation.
Nathan created Storm (a tool to process big data streams) and Cascalog (a replacement for tools like Pig or Hive). Nathan was the Lead Engineer at BackType before BackType was acquired by Twitter. At Twitter, he started the streaming compute team which provides infrastructure that supports many critical applications throughout the company. He recently left Twitter to start his own company. He’s working on a book called Big Data: principles and best practices of scalable realtime data systems, the early access edition is available here.

Live Streaming Presentation–”No One Knows Jack about Big Data”, by Jeff Kibler of InfoBright
This 20-minute live streaming presentation will look at how Man has been trying to define the word ‘love’ for hundreds of years, yet no one seems to have the same definition. Big data is the exa . . .ct same way – depending on the vendor, company, or user, ‘big data’ is a fuzzy term which seems to encompass just about everything that moves. During this brief discussion, we will (un?)define the term, dive into technologies, and discuss the future. After watching this presentation, you will better question those providing big data solutions and ultimately lead your company to the right choice.In the talk, I will hit on four key points:
1. Defining ‘big data’ is a meaningless exercise. Its definition is relative to the speaker
2. A use-case-driven approach is the only way to go
3. The single constant is ever-expanding growth
4. No one has a clue where it’s going – but there are two generally accepted platforms guiding technologists

Live-streaming Presentation-”Fraud Considerations & Big Data Analytics”, by Chet Joshi, of Clarity Advisory Group
Traditionally fraud detection was a reactive approach, meaning it was done after it was reported as “suspicious” behavior” by someone within a company. In the days of paper and pen, detection wa . . .s an exercise in review of the paper trail left behind by those committing fraud. The shift from paper processes to electronic data capturing & processing, coupled with the exponential increase in the volume of transactions, created the need for tools to analyze large data sets. “Big Data” is not just big in volume but also in the available sources and with today’s technology tools, fraud detection is no longer reactive but can be performed concurrently to minimize, and mitigate, fraud perpetrated by employees. This session will provide brief summary of the things to consider when implementing “Big Data” analytics to combat fraud.
