For many companies, as new sources of data flow into an organization the opportunities for business are almost up to the size of one’s imagination, provided you have the right tools and platforms in place to equip yourself to handle and deliver against these future promises.
Unfortunately many of these tools seem difficult to test, are changing rapidly and require a new skill set that teams may not have in place. The costs and risks associated with downtime from implementing or using the wrong solution are higher than ever. Gartner published that the industry-recognized average cost of downtime is equivalent to roughly $5,600 each minute (over $300,000 per hour).
The risk is betting on the wrong infrastructure or not taking into account the requirement for agility and speed, scalability and consistency. Ultimately it comes down to the level of resiliency your business needs to be successful.
Join Matt Davis, Sr. Site Reliability Engineer at OpenX-- a global leader in digital and mobile advertising technology-- Heather McKelvey, VP of Engineering at Basho Technologies and David Rubinstein, Editor-in-Chief of SD Times, for a discussion of how OpenX is addressing the ever-increasing need and expectation for personalization, the growth of digital engagement, and the need to leverage Big Data for competitive advantage.
Among the topics they will address are:
- Best practices around the new tools, methods and software stacks that will be needed to support the development of applications to capitalize on the deluge of data
- The tradeoffs and balances between speed, scalability and consistency and options on how your business can balance
- Some enlightening Basho research results that highlight the some of the costs and implications of database failure.
