Today, 90% of data warehouses hold less than 5 terabytes of data. Yet Twitter alone produces
over 7 terabytes of data every day!
3. What is Big Data?
“The capability to manage a huge volume of disparate data, at the right speed, and
within the right time frame to allow real-time analysis and reaction.”
Big data refers to any data that cannot be analysed by a
traditional database due to three typical characteristics:
high volume, high velocity and high variety. Much of this
data, if properly analysed, can provide companies a
competitive advantage. But traditional relational databases
– such as Oracle, Microsoft’s SQL Server or IBM’s DB2 –
are not capable of handling this kind of data. So new
technology platforms are required.
Big data is not a:
Stand-alone technology
An overnight process
Meant only for huge online companies
Replacement to relational databases

Deriving value is the key objective of

9. Big Data Market — Top Competitors
Company Strengths Weaknesses Opportunities Threats
Undisputed Market Leader,
strong competency in M&A
as well R&D through in-
house developments and
Diversified Business
advantage.
Approach geared towards
Large Enterprises. Portfolio
is perceived to be too
expensive by the mid-
market segments who prefer
vendor-agnostic off-the-shelf
solutions.
Flexibility of a dis-integrated
engagement in terms of
H/W, S/W and services.
Also being a market leader,
IBM is in a position to
influence the Big Data
Enterprise Eco-System.
The slowing growth of
world economy might
reduce Big Data market’s
growth as these solutions
garner huge investments
also increasing competition
from Amazon’s cheaper
enterprise solutions.
Strong brand name and
growing S/W & Services
practice coupled with an
exceptional acquisition of
Vertica, and the latest
offering HAVEn.
Internal organizational silos
and poor competency in
acquisitions (Autonomy) are
two key weaknesses HP
needs to work on.
Move to the next layer in the
value offering— build
around service automation
of data mining and
advanced analytics.
Competition in terms of
IBM is already far ahead
while HP is still in the
process of forming a
complete integrated Big
Data package.
Aster and Aprimo
Acquisition adorning
unstructured data analytics
and first to offer Petabyte-
range scalability
Teradata ―partners‖ with
SAS to offer its enterprise
analytics solution. Other
competitors have indulged in
M&A to acquire skills.
Convert partnerships into
more acquisitions to have a
better control of the
integrated product
solutioning.
The competition in the likes
of IBM and HP offer a
bigger and wider portfolio
owned internally.
Strong x-86 servers and
storage portfolio deemed
attractive across Large,
midrange and small-
business markets.
Limited Big Data related
R&D investments, H/W
centric sales force and
increasing commoditization
of their consumer H/W
products.
Acquisition of niche
technological patents
through M&A will help in
expansion of S/W and
Services segments.
Dwindling revenues due to
shrinking profit margins on
consumer hardware
products can hurt the
company beyond a
recovery point.
