About the Webinar

The recent focus on Big Data in the data management community brings with it a paradigm shift—from the more traditional top-down, “design then build” approach to data warehousing and business intelligence, to the more bottom up, “discover and analyze” approach to analytics with Big Data. Where does data modeling fit in this new world of Big Data? Does it go away, or can it evolve to meet the emerging needs of these exciting new technologies? Join this webinar to discuss:

  • Big Data –A Technical & Cultural Paradigm Shift
  • Big Data in the Larger Information Management Landscape
  • Modeling & Technology Considerations
  • Organizational Considerations
  • The Role of the Data Architect in the World of Big Data
