Assignment title: Information
Database systems are experiencing very rapid change.
Databases are handling structured data at the heart of
operations in firms, vendor and customer order systems,
financials, inventory management, and manufacturing. Data
is being processed by enterprise software connected to
back-end databases such as the Oracle product. Also with
sensor data and social media data, firms need to be able to
handle Big Data using tools such as Apache Hadoop.
Streaming big data requires a new approach to data
management while maintaining the existing structured
database for enterprise systems.
Review the following two videos and then produce a
comparison of the management issues associated with
traditional data management and with Big Data
Management. Discuss the future of data management for
large firms and the implications for IT management.
