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 now have a brand new identify, however the publication retains its core deal with huge knowledge subjects, together with knowledge administration, knowledge science, superior analytics, and AI. You may anticipate to learn the identical nice protection of cutting-edge applied sciences on this house and the individuals who put them into follow.
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 lately rebranded from EnterpriseAI.
Secondly, the identify displays the truth that huge knowledge remains to be a factor. Whereas the massive knowledge growth might have began a decade-and-a-half in the past, most of the identical challenges stay, and managing huge knowledge continues to be an enormous problem.
To make certain, knowledge administration tech has improved considerably because the first Hadoop clusters went on-line. However the rising volumes and velocity of information, to not point out the altering use circumstances for knowledge (hi there, 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 exhibiting 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 masking the rising marketplace for huge 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.
