CloudTimes is proud to announce the sponsorship of the upcoming GigaOM Structure:Data conference in New York in March 2012.
Making Big Data Work For You
Are you sitting on unmined gold? As the volume of enterprise data created has moved past terabytes and into the petabyte scale, companies need to determine the best way to store, manage and analyze all that information. Attend Structure:Data and learn how.
Structure:Data will bring together forward thinking business leaders, technologists and practitioners to examine the new business opportunities created by the staggering growth of big data, data analysis, and storage needs.
Now a two-day conference, Structure:Data’s main themes include:
- Infrastructure: Is your data in the cloud, on hard drives or network storage? All will be examined as potential repositories, as well as the big question: Who’s going to make it work?
- Algorithms: The value in big data is in how your data processes it. Lets take a look at algorithms built on top of Hadoop and other big data tools, from slicker recommendation engines to machine-learning and predictive analytics.
- Startups: A whole new crop of solutions are entering the market from big data’s disruptive young upstarts. See them here first.
- “Putting data to work”: Companies will talk about the benefits of big data strategy, solutions for their industries and how they are delivering new products to their customers.
We’re proud to welcome top executives from leading companies to our stage, just a few of whom include:
- Elizabeth Charnock, CEO, Cataphora
- Jeremy Howard, President and Chief Scientist, Kaggle
- George John, CEO, Rocket Fuel
- Mok Oh, Chief Scientist, PayPal
- Bill Schmarzo, CTO and Global Competency Lead, EMC

The Data Center Build-or-Buy Decision: 6 Key Factors You Should Consider
The need for physical data center capacity continues to grow. For some businesses, the driver is expansion into new markets or geographies. For others, it's the need to deal with growing amounts of data generated by applications with high-capacity demands, evolving end-user abilities, or regulatory bodies that demand ever-increasing quantities of meticulous documentation. If your data center is running out of space or power you have two options. You can build and operate a new facility, or you can lease the capacity you need from one of a growing number of colocation providers. The "build-or-buy" decision between construction and colocation should be weighed carefully, as the choice will affect your company and your bottom line quite literally for decades.
