The Apache Hadoop framework for the processing of data on commodity hardware is at the center of the Big Data picture today. Key solutions and technologies include the Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS), YARN, MapReduce, Pig, Hive, Security, as well as a growing spectrum of solutions that support Business Intelligence (BI) and Analytics.

The Decade of Data
To get a full appreciation for the incredible pace of change in business technology, look at the past 6 years. In 2014, IDC published a report that said that, by 2020, the digital universe would contain nearly as many digital bits as there are stars in the universe, and the data we create and copy annually would reach 44 zettabytes, or 44 trillion gigabytes. Guess what? It’s 2020. And it turns out IDC was correct in assuming that we were about to endure a data deluge.

Accelerating the Data Science Ecosystem
The big data ecosystem has changed. No longer is it true that people just want to store massive quantities of data. Action is not only needed but must be taken to sustain the viability of an organization. While some say big data is dead, the concept isn’t going anywhere. Instead, it is the notion of inaction on big data that is dead. In addition, the technologies that were built to store and process big data are not loved by the industry; they are merely tolerated and are often maligned. They have been difficult to put into production, to maintain, manage, and even find people with the skills to do all the work.

DBMS 2020: State of Play
Prior to 2008, whatever your database question, the answer was always,”Oracle”—or sometimes, “MySQL” or, “SQL Server.” The relational database management system (RDBMS) model—really a triumvirate of technologies combining Codd’s relational data model, the ACID transaction model, and the SQL language—dominated database management systems completely.

A Road Map to Closing the Data Science Skills Gap
Let’s cut right to the chase. Today, “big data” is just data, and the majority of organizations recognize the importance of being data-driven. But data, of whatever size, is only valuable if it’s accessible, trustworthy, and usable.
