Danes | Oct 7, 2016 Big data and analytics are evolving at warp speed — some might complain that all the changes are too much to keep up with. Data visualization is one exception; the ways in which data is rendered in graphs and charts have remained remarkably stable for years — and one company is not happy about that. “Analytics has changed fundamentally since the introduction of Hadoop, but visualization, which is how a lot of us think about analytics, is still stuck in the pre-Blackberry era,” according to David Fishman, VP of Marketing at Arcadia Data Inc. Fishman spoke to Sam Kahane (@Sam_Kahane), from the SiliconANGLE Media team, during the recent IBM DataFirst Launch event in New York how his company is striving to bring visualization into the present. “What Arcadia does is we drive our visualization right off of Hadoop, so the same kind of graphs and charts you might be familiar with from other BI tools, we can do with trillions of records at near real-time speeds for hundreds of users,” Fishman explained. Financial services flywheel Fishman went on to talk about why Arcadia Data came to attend IBM’s DataFirst launch. “New York has really been a launch point for big data and for technology in general. And the financial services industry in particular has really got the flywheel going; many other companies have come to learn from financial services,” he said. Fishman also stated that Arcadia Data is a proud partner with IBM, which has “moved the frontiers of big data forward in a number of ways.”
