Webcast Explores Going "Beyond Hadoop" to Complete the Big Data Picture with Unified Information Access

NEWTON, Mass., March 5, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- The variety, complexity and velocity of enterprise information is forcing businesses to look beyond Hadoop to solutions that bring structured data, unstructured content and text analytics together for a more unified view of business information. A March 8, 2012 webcast "Beyond Hadoop – Completing the Big Data Picture" will explore ways unified information access integrates Big Data with unstructured content and advanced text analytics to directly arm business users with actionable insight. Businesses looking for ways to better integrate structured and unstructured content with text analytics, should register here.

"It's increasingly clear that Big Data is not just about volume — but also the variety, complexity and velocity of enterprise information," said Sid Probstein, CTO of Attivio. "Integrating structured data with insights from unstructured information such as documents, call logs, and web content is essential to driving sustainable business value."

Aggregating and analyzing unstructured content is challenging because human expression is diverse, varies by location, and changes over time. To understand the causes of data trends, it is essential that business have advanced text analytic capabilities and a system that provides direct, real-time access to discover hidden insights.

Unified Information Access (UIA) seamlessly integrates structured data and unstructured content – replacing fragmented silos with the ability to index, join and present all enterprise information, complementing and extending existing IT investments.

The 30-minute webcast will address:

• Why business users are struggling to discover, analyze and consume information today
• Approaches for integrated structured and unstructured information and the impact of big data
• Examples of UIA and Big Data in action
