Panel:
'Big Data' and other techniques for handling today's huge data volumes
The exponential increase in the sheer quantity of real time market data is a significant challenge and recently the aptly named concept of ‘Big Data' has been bubbling to the surface. In this panel we discuss the technology issues generated by the need to work with such huge quantities of data in real-time or near real-time, and the actual or potential solutions being considered. How new and different is all this? Or is it in reality just a logical extension of what we have all seen before? What are the business drivers guiding any new technologies? What are the real business risks of not being able to comprehensively digest and make timely sense of this torrent of data? What can we learn from similar experiences outside the financial services sector? Tsunamis, data or otherwise, have a tendency to wreak havoc with the unprepared - how prepared is our industry? How prepared are you?
