Big Data & HPC
Chaired by Ange CARUSO, EDF, Georges HEBRAIL, EDF and Guillaume COLIN DE VERDIERE, CEA

Our modern world is facing a new challenge: the flooding of data. Be them coming from scientific experiments or more private usages, those huge amounts of data cannot be handled by classical tools anymore. One needs to use HPC and Business Intelligence large datawarehousing tools, in order to scale innovative methods to manipulate and extract valuable information of such overwhelming databases.

The Big Data session is tryed to cast a light on the challenges arising from large volumes and short processing times in relation with HPC and Business Intelligence perspectives. Actors from the scientific and industrial worlds have illustrated those two aspects. They have also explained the relation between HPC and Business Intelligence approaches as a convergence to the Big Data concept.
