Earlier this week, Datanami accomplished the transition to BigDATAwire. Loyal readers will discover that we started this journey practically two years in the past. And whereas the transition might have taken just a little longer than anticipated, it’s satisfying to lastly be right here.
We have now a brand new identify, however the publication retains its core concentrate on large knowledge matters, together with knowledge administration, knowledge science, superior analytics, and AI. You’ll be able to anticipate to learn the identical nice protection of cutting-edge applied sciences on this area and the individuals who put them into observe.
We selected the identify BigDATAwire for a few causes. First, it brings alignment with the Tabor Communications Inc. household of publications, together with TCI’s flagship web site, HPCwire, in addition to AIwire, which just lately rebranded from EnterpriseAI.
Secondly, the identify displays the truth that large knowledge continues to be a factor. Whereas the large knowledge growth might have began a decade-and-a-half in the past, lots of the similar challenges stay, and managing large knowledge continues to be a giant problem.
To make sure, knowledge administration tech has improved considerably for the reason that first Hadoop clusters went on-line. However the rising volumes and velocity of information, to not point out the altering use instances for knowledge (howdy, generative AI) are exposing weaknesses in organizations’ present knowledge administration methods.
The purpose with BigDATAwire (or BDW for brief) is to proceed spotlighting these knowledge administration challenges, in addition to displaying readers the enterprise alternatives that open when efficient knowledge administration is reached.
It’s the finish of the highway for Datanami, which was one of many first publications devoted to protecting the rising marketplace for large knowledge options again in 2011. I’m honored to have been the managing editor of Datanami since 2013.
With the arduous work of the publications’ employees and a little bit of luck, hopefully BigDATAwire can have a equally profitable run.
