UNICOM is organizing a series of Conference on Big Data called “India Analytics & Big Data Week 2015″. In this event, we will organize one conference on each day in one city, featuring 7 different locations, exploring the depth and breadth of Big Data across all practices and perspectives. We intend to cover Big Data Analytics in depth this time.

This conference concentrates on practical applications and utilization of big data. It aims to cut through the marketing hype and help participants understand the benefits
Every day, Industry creates 2.5 quintillion bytes of data — so much that 90% of the data in the world today has been created in the last two years alone. This data comes from everywhere: sensors used to gather climate information, posts to social media sites, digital pictures and videos, purchase transaction records, and cell phone GPS signals to name a few. This data is ‘Big data.’
Big Data refers to data sets that are too large to be processed and analyzed by traditional IT technologies.
Records and data exist in a myriad of electronic devices from mobile communications to surveillance cameras to emails to web sites to till receipts; it can combine daily news, social media feeds and videos.
Retailers can exploit the data to track sales and consumer behaviour, in store and online; health professionals and epidemiologists trying to predict the spread of disease combine data from health services, border agencies and a variety of other sources.
The London Olympics will analyze big data to establish traffic patterns, policing needs and potential terrorist threats. The finance sector seeks to exploit one of the most valuable mother lodes of data through powerful tools that can make sense of patterns in news, trading activities and other more esoteric sources.
India’s Unique identification project, spearheaded by Nandan Nilekani, will collect and process billions of data, to provide identification for each resident across the country and would be used primarily as the basis for efficient delivery of welfare services. It would also act as a tool for effective monitoring of various programs and schemes of the Government.
From developing strategies for cricket teams to detecting spurious drugs and even predicting a crime, India data scientists are building specialised systems that can chew through billions of bits of data, analyse them via self-learning algorithms and package the insights for immediate use.

Through Next Generation Analytics, big data holds the promise of empowering people to make better decisions faster. The possible applications are limited only by the ability to manage and mine the data, and the tools are getting smarter and more powerful every day; however, the potential profits are so great that many organisations are keeping their own strategies under wraps.
Customers are also looking for new ways to quickly solve Big Data problems, using technologies that offer a set of cloud-based services, that make it easy and cost effective for customers to process and extract information from massive volumes of data.
