\nThese days, Big Data, Data Analytics, Data Science are all the buzz. And it makes sense that this would be the case. Since the advent of the Age of Information, we have been amassing data at a logarithmic rate. Current estimates set the total number of data in the world at 44ZB. That is 44 Zettabytes, or 4.4e+10 Terabytes. As this repository of informaiton has grown, we\u2019ve started to see some of the early warnings that a critical watershed moment lay ahead, and that we need to start rethinking data indexing and querying sooner rather than later.
\nTo that end, there is Capture Club.
\nStandard SQL engines (E.g. MySQL, MSSQL and Oracle, etc) are reaching their upper limits with regards to what they can handle in the aforementioned realms of indexing and querying. While these engines are certainly capable of holding billions of documents, they lack the architecture to provide effective querying functionality, even when highly-optimized. Further, the types of querying required by today\u2019s exacting analytics standards \u2014 the features and thresholds \u2014 simply do not exist in within the realm of these venerable engines.
\nGiven this, it is time to begin rethinking the way you manage your data. Are you losing revenue because you\u2019re not fully utilizing your data? Are you losing revenue to an arcane or limited search implementation? Are there potential revenue streams available within your existing data of which you might not be aware? Would it be possible that with the addition of one or more external data sources that your current information repository may become far more useful?
\nThese are the questions to consider, and if the answer is \u201cYes\u201d or \u201cI dont\u2019 know\u201d to any of them, you should consider joining the Capture Club.\n<\/body>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
