45. Summary
• Understand the data and how to process it before you venture into
Big Data
• Be prepared to invest in a large learning curve in big data
technologies
• Understand how scalable technologies you choose are (i.e. vertically
scalable vs. horizontally and vertically scalable)
• Consider using 3rd party providers such as LucidWorks and
Cloudera
• Spend time understanding the best NOSQL technologies that match
your data requirements (Document Database, Graph Database,
Object Database, Key-Value Store, Big Tables)
• Big Data is a very expensive journey so plan carefully
• When you are about to give up you may be closer than you think
