!  Traditionally, databases have been built around SQL, a
declarative query language targeted at organizing data in two-
dimensional tables.

!  The ever increasing variety, volume and velocity of data has
taxed traditional relational databases and created performance
bottlenecks, particularly around CPU, memory, disk I/O and
network saturation.

!  Non-relational or NoSQL alternatives have emerged to better
support extreme and diverse workloads without suffering hits in
performance, while the incumbents increasingly add
capabilities to stay competitive.

Steve Guttman is a MarkLogic’s VP of Product
Management. He has a broad background in Software
Marketing and Product Management for Client, Web and
Enterprise markets. Steve helped develop several
groundbreaking products, including Adobe Photoshop
and the first browser-based spreadsheet. Most recently,
Steve worked as Microsoft’s Product Unit Manager (the
product GM) for Expression Web – a Web authoring tool
created for Front-End Web developers. At Autodesk, he
oversaw Product Management for the GIS and Civil
Engineering division, and helped launched Autodesk
Civil 3D – a next-generation model-based design tool
for civil engineers, which quickly grew to be an
industry-leading product. In 1999 Steve started
Halfbrain.com, the first company to build and launch a
browser-based spreadsheet and presentation program –
over 6 years before Google Docs made its debut.
Halfbrain.com merged with BI vendor, AlphaBlox (now
part of IBM), where the web spreadsheet became a rich
front end to Essbase and SQL Server Analysis Services.

Mark Logic, NoSQL and Big Data

•  Relational database reign of 30
years is being challenged
•  Needs for distributed document-
centric stores
•  Web-level data is not economical
with existing RDBMS structure or
licensing
•  Wide variety in NoSQL such as
XML, graph, column, object and
in-memory and Hadoop
•  Mark Logic is a distributed
document-oriented XML system

Data Doesn’t Speak for Itself

•  Data is only a proxy for
reality, footprints left
behind
•  Its meaning has to be
understood
•  Data integration
provides meaning and
context to data
•  Happens in logical
locations
•  Analytics gives value to
Big Data


Willie Sutton: Infamous Bank Robber

Q: Willie, why do you rob banks?

A: Because that’s where the money is.

!   Just a technical question: how does all of that mixed media
data become XML data during the ingestion phase?

!   A follow up to that question: MarkLogic is praised for its
amazing query response time, but how fast is the ingestion
process to a disk-based forest?

!   We hear a lot about Big Data — too much really — but despite
the fact that much of the data is not traditional structured
data, a lot of the analytics eventually resemble the quantitative
analytics that preceded it. Because MarkLogic positions itself as
a Big Data player, how does it support the deep quantitative
analytics of Big Data?


!   I read a case study which mentions that MarkLogic provided
scores and data visualization for the London Olympics. How does
that work?

! MarkLogic describes its strength as providing context to
decision-making. Apparently, you partner with traditional BI
vendors like Cognos. How do you provide context to a BI tool?

!   How expensive is MarkLogic? I understand you can build a cluster
of the same commodity servers as Hadoop, but with a lot of
servers, doesn’t the license cost become prohibitive in the same
way most NoSQL vendors point out the cost of traditional
relational databases?


!   I get the sense that the applications for MarkLogic have a strong
feel for content understanding and search, but all organizations
still strive to understand their operations in traditional data
warehousing and BI methods. Can MarkLogic support this
without the other infrastructure?
