Earlier this week, Datanami accomplished the transition to BigDATAwire. Loyal readers will discover that we started this journey almost two years in the past. And whereas the transition might have taken a little bit 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 information subjects, together with information administration, information science, superior analytics, and AI. You may count on to learn the identical nice protection of cutting-edge applied sciences on this area 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 not too long ago rebranded from EnterpriseAI.
Secondly, the identify displays the truth that large information continues to be a factor. Whereas the massive information growth might have began a decade-and-a-half in the past, lots of the identical challenges stay, and managing large information continues to be an enormous problem.
To make sure, information administration tech has improved considerably for the reason that first Hadoop clusters went on-line. However the rising volumes and velocity of knowledge, to not point out the altering use circumstances for information (howdy, generative AI) are exposing weaknesses in organizations’ present information administration methods.
The objective with BigDATAwire (or BDW for brief) is to proceed spotlighting these information administration challenges, in addition to exhibiting readers the enterprise alternatives that open when efficient information administration is reached.
It’s the finish of the highway for Datanami, which was one of many first publications devoted to overlaying the rising marketplace for large information options again in 2011. I’m honored to have been the managing editor of Datanami since 2013.
With the onerous work of the publications’ employees and a little bit of luck, hopefully BigDATAwire can have a equally profitable run.
