Every organization collects, stores and retains portions of dark data. It's
the digital equivalent of emotional baggage which hangs around after every
user interaction, transaction, and customer engagement.
In fact, not using data effectively is costing United Airlines almost $1
Billion annually in lost revenue.
Gartner Inc. describes dark data as "information assets that organizations
collect, process and store in the course of their regular business activity,
but fail to use for other purposes."
For travel companies with a strong online presence, dark data represents a
sizable portion of all data stored. Such examples might include:
How many times a user resets their password IP address when a user logs into
your website/app Last email communication date to your customers Mobile
handset type, or web browser version Free text feedback on a hotel stay or

Monitoring Those Hard to Reach Places: Linux, Java, Oracle and MySQL
Today's IT environments are increasingly heterogeneous, with Linux, Java,
Oracle and MySQL considered nearly as common as traditional Windows
environments. In many cases, these platforms have been integrated into an
organization's Windows-based IT department by way of an acquisition of a
company that leverages one of those platforms. In other cases, the
applications may have been part of the IT department for years, but managed
by a separate department or singular administrator.
Still, whether it's a perception of required specialization, frustration over
these platforms' many version permutations or just general uncertainty and
doubt, Linux, Java, Oracle and MySQL create mass monitoring confusion and are
routinely considered "hard to reach" for even a seasoned IT professional.

Nutanix Enterprise Cloud for DevOps
DevOps is often described as a combination of technology and culture. Without
both, DevOps isn't complete. However, applying the culture to outdated
technology is a recipe for disaster; as response times grow and connections
between teams are delayed by technology, the culture will die. A Nutanix
Enterprise Cloud has many benefits that provide the needed base for a true
DevOps paradigm.
In his Day 3 Keynote at 20th Cloud Expo, Chris Brown, a Solutions Marketing
Manager at Nutanix, will explore the ways that Nutanix technologies empower
teams to react faster than ever before and connect teams in ways that were
either too complex or simply impossible with traditional infrastructures.

The Internet of Things (IoT) promises to change everything by enabling “smart” environments (homes, cities, hospitals, schools, stores, etc.) and smart products (cars, trucks, airplanes, trains, wind turbines, lawnmowers, etc.). I recently wrote about the importance of moving beyond “connected” to “smart” in a blog titled “Internet of Things: Connected Does Not Equal Smart”. The article discusses the importance of moving beyond just collecting the data, to transitioning to leveraging this new wealth of IoT data to improve the decisions that these smart environments and products need to make: t...
In his opening keynote at 20th Cloud Expo, Michael Maximilien, Research Scientist, Architect, and Engineer at IBM, will motivate why realizing the full potential of the cloud and social data requires artificial intelligence. By mixing Cloud Foundry and the rich set of Watson services, IBM's Bluemix is the best cloud operating system for enterprises today, providing rapid development and deployment of applications that can take advantage of the rich catalog of Watson services to help drive insights from the vast trove of private and public data available to enterprises. 
In order to meet the rapidly changing demands of today’s customers, companies are continually forced to redefine their business strategies in order to meet these needs, stay relevant and continue to see profitable growth. IoT deployment and development is integral in this transformation, and today businesses are increasingly seeing the value of investing their resources into IoT deployments. These technologies are able increase ROI through projects such as connecting supply chains or enabling smart office capabilities for employees.

However, applying the culture to outdated technology is a recipe for disaster; as response times grow and connections between teams are delayed by technology, the culture will die.

Multiple data types are pouring into IoT deployments. Data is coming in small packages as well as enormous files and data streams of many sizes. Widespread use of mobile devices adds to the total. In this power panel at @ThingsExpo, moderated by Conference Chair Roger Strukhoff, panelists will look at the tools and environments that are being put to use in IoT deployments, as well as the team skills a modern enterprise IT shop needs to keep things running, get a handle on all this data, and deliver the analytics that add value.
Machine learning, AI, cognitive computing, natural language understanding, image recognition, pattern matching, autonomous devices – these are just a few of 2017’s loosely defined catchall phrases. But in practice, they each refer to a significant field of study that is guaranteed to have an impact on the way people live and how business is done.

For a recent University of San Francisco MBA class, I wanted to put my students in a challenging situation where they would be forced to make difficult data science trade-offs between gathering data, preparing the data and performing the actual analysis.
The purpose of the exercise was to test their ability to “think like a data scientist” with respect to identifying and quantifying variables that might be better predictors of performance.
