    Updated: 2012-01-31 13:00:59

  • Departmental analytics — best practices

    Updated: 2012-01-25 16:47:59
    I believe IT departments should support and encourage departmental analytics efforts, where “support” and “encourage” are not synonyms for “control”, “dominate”, “overwhelm”, or even “tame”. A big part of that is: Let, and indeed help, departments have the data they want, when they want it, served with blazing performance. Three things that absolutely should NOT [...]

  • Comments on Constraints and Indexes in the Database, a Good Idea?

    Updated: 2012-01-24 16:57:19
    Martin Widlake thinks so: Comments are great, you can put 4000 characters of information into the database about each table, view and column. This can be a brief description of the object, a full explanation of what a column is to hold or even a list of typical entries for a column or table. But [...]

  • Microsoft SQL Server 2012 and enterprise database choices in general

    Updated: 2012-01-24 14:42:34
    Microsoft is launching SQL Server 2012 on March 7. An IM chat with a reporter resulted, and went something like this. Reporter: [Care to comment]? CAM: SQL Server is an adequate product if you don’t mind being locked into the Microsoft stack. For example, the ColumnStore feature is very partial, given that it can’t be [...]

  • Departmental analytics — general observations

    Updated: 2012-01-23 14:29:06
    Department-level adoption of analytic technology isn’t the exception; it’s the norm. Reasons include: Many analytic challenges are inherently departmental. In many cases, central IT control of analytics isn’t needed. Departments move ahead without central approval or involvement because they can. That said, arguments for centralizing analytic technology include: A lot of data is used by [...]

  • Notes from the Couch blogs

    Updated: 2012-01-18 07:57:09
    Couchbase in general, and CouchDB project founder Damien Katz in particular, are to some extent walking away from CouchDB. That is: The Couchbase product will not be upward compatible with CouchDB. Couchbase will no longer offer a CouchDB distribution, and is doing the natural and responsible thing, namely … … donating to the Apache Foundation [...]

  • Big data terminology and positioning

    Updated: 2012-01-09 01:35:57
    Recently, I observed that Big Data terminology is seriously broken. It is reasonable to reduce the subject to two quasi-dimensions: Bigness — Volume, Velocity, size Structure — Variety, Variability, Complexity given that High-velocity “big data” problems are usually high-volume as well.* Variety, variability, and complexity all relate to the simply-structured/poly-structured distinction. But the conflation should [...]
