Week 7: Discussion – Applications of Big Data & NoSQL Databases
Discussion Topic:
What are some examples of how companies are using big data to gain a competitive advantage?
Search the Web and find the Top-10 NoSQL database providers (either one offered by a company or an open-source product). Evaluate the claims made for this product. What data management technology does it use (key-value store, document database, graph database, wide-column store, or something else)? What advantages does it claim to offer over a relational database, and how credible are these claims? Would you recommend this provider? Report your results and findings.
