Unlocking a strategic approach to data and AIAI is only as good as the data that powers it – this is a fundamental truth about data and AI that defines the limits of what’s possible with artificial intelligence. It may seem surprising, but it's rarely a bad algorithm or a bad learning model that causes AI failures. It's not the math or the science. More often, it's the quality of the data being used to answer the question.

Data management can often mean the difference between a business that will succeed and one that will drown in too much disorganized information. With high-quality, well-managed data, you can gain a clearer picture of your business. Access the right data when you need it. And make better, more strategic decisions.

What is digital transformation?
Definitions of digital transformation vary. But no matter how it’s defined, the competitive advantage that results is accomplished when an organization effectively uses digital technology to dramatically streamline and improve processes, customer service and business operations. Formed at the intersection of people, business and technology, digital transformation affects many aspects of our lives – how we work, shop, travel, educate, govern and live. Today we feel its effect across all industries, large and small alike.
What is big data?
For most organizations, big data is the reality of doing business. It’s the proliferation of structured and unstructured data that floods your organization on a daily basis – and if managed well, it can deliver powerful insights.
Imagine being able to analyze data to determine the root cause of failures. Or detect fraudulent behavior before it affects revenue. Implementing the right solutions to make the most of your big data – from data management to analytics – can be key to your business success.
What is Hadoop?
Organizations with massive volumes of data are turning to Hadoop to extract value from all that information. But what is Hadoop, exactly – and how can it help your organization? Learn how Hadoop is evolving to meet the big data challenges of today and tomorrow. And how you can take advantage of data management, data visualization and analytics to get faster, more meaningful insights from your Hadoop environment.
What is ETL (extract, transform, load)?
Older technologies don't always die out and get replaced with newer technologies. Sometimes they adapt to the times and retain their relevance. That’s what has happened with ETL (extract, transform, load) – a decades-old technology that many organizations still rely on as part of their larger data integration strategy. Learn the history of ETL and how it works, then find out where it fits in a world of big data, Hadoop and streaming.
What is a data warehouse?
With large amounts of data readily available to organizations, the question is no longer how businesses collect it – but how they store it. Data warehouses are a reliable solution. They serve as a repository for data that's been collected and integrated from multiple sources. And unlike data lakes, which store raw data, data warehouses contain data that's consistently formatted so it's ready for analytics or reporting purposes.
What is cloud computing?
Cloud computing provides access to easily scalable computational resources for software and data storage by eliminating the need for storage on local systems and infrastructure. Services and data can be securely accessed as needed to extend capabilities or reduce costs.
What is blockchain?
What can you store in blockchain besides Bitcoin transactions? Insurance claims, medical records and even voting records can all be stored in blockchain. Simply put, blockchain is a distributed data architecture that stores data and transactions – and validates the accuracy of those transactions by consensus. Learn more about blockchain and how you can analyze blockchain data.
