Emerging trends on Cloud, Social, Mobile, Big Data and Predictive Analytics

Hosted by the Engineering Department: The current phase of IT is undergoing a new paradigm shift and engaged in new buzz around Cloud, Social, Mobile, Big Data and Predictive Analytics. Industry leaders such as Oracle, IBM, CISCO, hp etc. are busy defining these technology trends and developing software solutions, architecture and framework. The term "cloud computing" has been used and abused by technology leaders and their marketing groups to denote just about anything other than on-premise systems such as software as a service (SaaS), platform as a service (PaaS), infrastructure as a service (IaaS), private, community, public, and hybrid cloud etc. The immense success and proliferation of Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Foursquare and mobile/smart devices such as iPhones, Blackberrys and Tablet PC among consumers has created consumerization of IT and new paradigm of Social and Mobile computing.The social computing that deals with unstructured data such as chat, video, and pictures has challenged IT leaders to store, manage, retrieve and analyze these large amount of data and has given birth to “Big Data” and “Predictive in memory analytics”.This seminar will be an endeavor to cut through fog and simplify these emerging technology trends, directions and innovations in simple terms with recent industry use cases.
